This series introduces us to young artists who talk about why arts are a vital part of their education and life; its aim is to inspire viewers to take an interest in arts and to use the arts to develop skills in other areas of study. Each program presents three individuals who discuss either the arts as a profession or their appreciation of the arts. The challenges of being involved in the arts are also looked at, which includes the time required for practice and the self-discipline that is the basis of any serious pursuit of the arts. The rewards - performances and showing of works - speak for themselves. Produced by TVO. Programs available on 1 or 3 DVD(s), Digital Streaming File(s) or Video(s).
