World Art Day is all about encouraging creativity and appreciating art from around the world. It was started by the International Association of Art (IAA) and is recognized by UNESCO as a day to highlight how art brings people together and inspires new ideas. The date was chosen to honor Leonardo da Vinci’s birthday, a symbol of creativity and imagination.

Leonardo dedicated his life to becoming a scientist…and engineer…and inventor…and architect…and artist…and sculptor. Do you think he stopped there? Think again.
