Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Support 6 artists who will each create and perform an original short form adult puppet show for the Full Moon Puppet Show. Provide support for these artists by offering 3 puppet workshops before the final performances in September. Provide artists with workshop space and Mentor feedback. 180 people will attend the show to see the 6 artists perform. Live music by 2 different local music groups will play at The Full Moon Puppet Show. The Full Moon Puppet Show will evaluate its outcomes through audience and participant count throughout the project related to workshops, artists performing, and audience members. Artists surveys will be filled out after the final performances evaluating the overall experience of the program with space for general feedback.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Significant Outcomes include artist feedback that described how the experience gave them confidence to create, taught them how to direct, made them feel excited about the puppetry community, and that it was overall a "transformative experience." This along with 13% of ticket sales were sliding scale, sold out shows, and 30 artists participated were all highlights of the program.
