3. LMAF encourages multicultural audiences to break barriers between races & cultures to celebrate the artistic and cultural event together. This in turn will promote multi socio-cultural understanding.

4. LMAF creates multidisciplinary platform for artists and audiences to express their thoughts and ideas hence, encouraging them to broaden perspectives on other disciplines especially language.

Fully rounded students must be able to integrate a means of education through art to gain a holistic education that incorporates all of the multiple intelligences.
"Students who are involved in the arts are more motivated, more engaged, more sensitive, and more focused, creative, and responsible. They perform better in all aspects of school, including academic achievement." (Fowler, 1996)
Arts include the fine arts, music, dance, and theater. All of these aspects are important and can be easily incorporated into a whole curriculum, in our case English language to allow for students to fully develop their minds.
