This might be the most important benefit. The School District of Philadelphia has cut down the art and music programs so much that they are almost nonexistent. There are probably a whole of bunch of kids walking around with the talent of Jacob Lawrence or Jill Scott but they don't have the opportunities to explore the arts.
