ACHF Arts Access
To increase relevance and accessibility to a greater number of patrons. We will do a narrative report to targeted groups and individuals, interviews, surveys and our chip drop-in which patrons choose a white chip if they liked it or red if not a favorite.
We lowered fees and gave performances for free while bringing in bigger events and virtual events. AC4TA has an evaluator. Each performance patrons are being polling and a photo record taken. Top price tickets to this summer's major events are just $10. We continue to offer reduced pricing even from that level to accommodate patrons in our area.
