Art is considered an essential part of all cultures throughout the world. However, these days fewer and fewer people appreciate art and turn their focus on science, technology and business. Why do you think that is? What could be done to encourage more people to take an interest in the arts?

In most societies around the world ,

arts

play a major part in the culture.

Although

some people still engage with

this

, the majority try to seek other

professionals

in

science

and business. less profit and minimum job opportunities with

arts

could be the main reasons for

this

development and

this

can be reversed by encouraging these

professionals

with government support and using some awareness

programs

. In the following essay ,

this

writer wishes to

further

elaborate on

this

.

To begin

with , since ancient times

arts

like music and drama have been interrelated with human life and kept as a major part of the human culture. Unfortunately , with the development of

science

and technology , the requirements of humans have increased and profit , which is available from

arts

was not sufficient to meet it. At the same time , people have become very busy and the demand for

art

also

decreased .

As a result

, artists try to engage with other profitable

professionals

like business and

science

.

For example

, according to a recent survey conducted by the cultural ministry of Sri Lanka have found, 85% of professional artists , find it difficult to live with the income they gain from selling their

arts

. On other hand , most nations around the world realised that

art

is important for human development since it builds up the creativity and capacity of a person. since most countries try to implement new

programs

to reestablish the

art

and human sciences rather than

science

and technology. Awareness

programs

among their citizens using mass media is one main way of achieving

this

target. Apart from

this

,most governments provide financial support for artists and scholarships to students who engage with

art

subjects for their higher education .

For example

, in Sri Lanka , the government provide scholarships worth 25000 rupees per month for students who are doing drama in the

arts

faculty. In conclusion , with less demand and minimum profit , most people refuse to engage with

art

-related

professionals

.

however

, with proper government support and good awareness

programs

,we can overcome

this

problem .
