Specifically, I learned how to effectively interact with people to provide accurate and helpful information about artworks created by local artists. This experience has been particularly valuable in helping me improve my socialization skills and change my behavior for improvement. Aside, I appreciate more the beauty and uniqueness of artwork has a message behind the back of the arts which is the only way to speak up from the minds of the artists through arts that give a deep feeling from their emotional spirit.” -Mariel
