Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Fellowship Exhibition Production and Presentation project will respond to community need by providing three curatorial fellows with access to leading exhibition spaces, staff support, exhibition production funds, the hands-on experience of producing an exhibition from conception to opening night, and provide fellows with the opportunity to share new artistic visions with the public. To evaluate program success, the Emerging Curator's Fellowship will use the following methods to track project outcomes: (1) collect data on the fellows' curatorial growth by soliciting interpersonal feedback at monthly meetings; (2) assign the fellows a pre-, mid- and post-fellowship self-assessment questionnaire to determine their increase in curatorial skills and understanding and learn how to continue to make the program responsive; (3) gathering anecdotes through interviews from fellows and the broader arts communities they connect with during their fellowships; (4) Attendance at exhibition openings and curator talks to demonstrate public connection.
