The broken windows theory is a criminological theory that visible signs of crime, anti-social behavior, and civil disorder create an urban environment that encourages further crime and disorder, including serious crimes. The theory thus suggests that improving surroundings by introducing art and beauty help to create an atmosphere of order and lawfulness, thereby preventing more serious crimes. Being involved in community art project can be among the most rewarding and dynamic experiences. Community Art Program is primarily focused on involving children and adults, with the help of professional artists, in an opportunity to create art, build self-esteem and revitalize their communities offering people a place to express themselves while developing sensibility and sense of ownership. It also works to facilitate the dialogue within community members and to inspire them to work together in the benefit of their communities.
