The Heath Robinson Museum in Pinner has shared its support for the Royal Academy’s (RA) new campaign to protect the “immeasurable” value of art.
Last month, the RA shared its latest project, showcasing the importance of art and its fear that this may be lost.
The statement said: “Art education isn’t only about becoming an artist. It’s about thinking flexibly and finding the new and the next. Teaching one way of learning and approaching a problem won’t give us the answers society needs – in the workplace as much as the classroom. We need a mix.”
On Friday, October 25, the Heath Robinson Museum released a statement, commending the RA for its “passionate call to protect and promote art education in schools”.
A spokesperson for the museum said: “As an institution dedicated to the work of William Heath Robinson – a master of inventive imagination – we fully support the RA’s message that art is a serious, essential subject in education.”
