When artists create an artcar:
They participate in community events and traditions, and become part of the community.
They develop a greater sense of pride in themselves.
Their concept of the world expands beyond the bounds of their immediate community
They learn to have pride in their accomplishments as a group and as individuals.
They learn to set long term goals and then achieve the satisfaction of reaching those goals.
They master problem-solving skills and develop discipline.
They discover the value of teamwork.
They develop a greater understanding of conflict resolution and compormise.
They learn to appreciate the freedom of expression a project of this nature provides.
Perhaps most important, they gain a greater sense of self.
