For the Children of Performa, the Sound of Art Is a Buzz and a Growl
An arts festival taps third- and fourth-graders to teach adults a thing or two about authenticity.

Mmmm - I feel good….
With a ‘Breath of fresh Ayr’
To start your day,
And 'Honest Men'
Along the way,
'Bonnie Lasses'
To help you stay,
Aye, Ayr’s the place,
To be today…

A normal person can tell you lots of factual information about his life, his work, his neighborhood, and his hobbies but very little about the FDA clinical trial process or the moon landing. But do you know who knows a ton about the moon landing? Crazy people who think it’s fake. They don’t have crank opinions because they are misinformed, they have tons and tons of moon-related factual information because they’re cranks.
I am a poet writing of my pain
I am a girl living a life of shame
I am he one who you made insane
I am a person wanting to know more
I am the one who you showed the door
I am the one who you will never know
I am the one who'll let you go
Because i am the one who will end the show
Creative ideas are not confined to an exclusive group of talented people. We are all born with innate creative ability; you have only to observe a three-year-old at play to know that.
In many ways, creativity is a muscle with which we’re born. As with any muscle with which we’re born, it can be exercised, built, and made stronger.
Like exercising with a good training partner, the combination of competition and cooperative effort inherent in group brainstorming can inspire us to push our thinking harder and farther.
After years of chasing and yearning,
Of striving, becoming and attaining,
It gets to a point you take a pause,
And question all you have been made to believe.
