Practicing and educating oneself about Art and Aesthetic pursuits not only contributes in creating innovative products and performances but, aids in expanding our horizon and shaping our disposition, satisfying our thirst for knowledge and establishing cross- cultural exchange, justifying our quest for a worthwhile human existence. Arts Education nurtures the holistic development of individuals allowing them to value their unique identity and realize their potential to the fullest through participation in varied forms of Arts. Current research and valuable contribution of Art’s education programs across the globe indicate that from an early age children are known to benefit from a wide array of Art experiences fostering brain development, physical wellness, language acquisition, literacy and unique cultural identity. This eventually aids in instilling a spirit of connectivity and gregariousness, appreciation and value orientation, aesthetic sensibility and expression for hidden talent equipping them with the needed competencies to enhance their human potentialities to the fullest. Taking the above framework into consideration, the aim of my paper is to: Firstly, to highlight and discuss the objectives, role and importance of Arts Education in developing human potential among children. Secondly, to provide a comparative testimony of the extent to which countries across the globe have made an attempt to incorporate Art activities in their school curriculum (highlighting analysis of a few countries). Lastly, an attempt has been made to develop a proposal /guidelines for developing an Arts Education Program for the children of today.
