Speaking Critique Art is a form of human expression. Art portrays various ideas, feelings such as love, happiness, boredom and sorrow. But sometimes, art is only considered as an extra elective within the school curriculum and just a waste of time. So here today at Palm Beach State college is an irritated professor, who also teaches at Palm Beach State college, Samantha Salzinger gave a speech on “The Importance of Art, ” presented on November 4, 2015, and she argues that art is an important subject and should deemed as a core class. Salzinger begins building her credibility with personal stories and reputable sources, convincing statistics and facts, and successfully engages the audiences

Her speech took place at HT103 classroom. The room is relatively large compare to a regular classroom, because it is a combination of three classrooms merged together. Although the room was large, but it does not have the capacity to hold everyone, and not everyone has the chance to have his/her own seat. I was fortunate enough to locate a seat; it was perfectly centered in the middle of the auditorium, two rows down from the front. The hour-long presentation was ultimately to help people to realize that art is just not an extra elective for graduation but it’s a part of the cultural heritage of every American. Not surprisingly, the audience was mostly comprised of students, faculties and staffs. The demographic of the audience was consisting of almost every race, including Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negroid. The median age of students is about 20 year-old and the median age of faculty/staff is 40-45 year-old. But within all the facts about the audience, the most interesting fact is that the numeral of female and male was corresponding. This tells us that everyone does care about art and how it evolves inside our society. Works Cited
