Abstract

The impact of the movement of Jakarta city towards the industrial era 4.0 makes the villages located on the border of Depok and Jakarta experience very rapid social, cultural and economic changes. These changes can crush the existence of the local community if the community is not creative in overcoming these changes. Therefore, children as the nation's embryo need to be equipped with creativity to prepare themselves for these changes. The problem of this research is how big is the creative visual art potential of children who attend public elementary schools in an environment that is undergoing change from villages into cities? This study aims to describe the extent of how deep visual art learning can show the level of creativity of children in the environment. The research method used in this research is descriptive method. The results of this study indicate that visual art learning greatly contributes to the level of creativity of these children. Finally, the research is expected to have implications as a basis for consideration and inspiration for teachers to combine visual art learning with other subjects as an effort to develop children's creativity in all fields.
