World Art Day is an international celebration of the Fine Arts. It is a day to celebrate all things creative!
Why April 15th?
This date was chosen in honor of Leonardo da Vinci, who was born on April 15, 1452.
Considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time, this Italian artist was also heralded as a sculptor, architect, mathematician, engineer, inventor, and philosopher.
It is because of Leonardo da Vinci’s extraordinary talents, and his influence of the Fine Arts in other fields, that April 15th was chosen for World Art Day.
