Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Participants will become familiar with the art forms of painting and chamber music in city parks located on each city's prominent body of water. We will use attendance data, along with survey and interview data for each event to measure community engagement with the project and access to the art forms. 2: Participants will be inspired by our art and music to reflect on their local water source and the many ways it influences their daily lives. We will use the audience survey and interview data from our evaluation plan to capture changes in thinking and/or insights from the participants.
