ACHF Arts Access
Broaden exposure to diverse cultures and traditions in communities that have limited access to high-quality, global performing arts experiences. We will solicit feedback from and conduct follow-up conversations with students, teachers, community partners, and artists, and will compile quantitative data on community-artist interactions. 2: Build the capacity of our partner organization to use this residency model in the future so residents maintain access to the arts in local venues. We will measure new and sustained partnerships with local schools, continued programming featuring international ensembles, and evidence of new/increased local support for the organization.
