Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, school age students will learn about and gain skills in theater, dance and visual arts. Evaluation will occur through questionnaires for parents and students, anecdotal findings from conversations with students and artists, and a follow-up meeting with artists. I will also keep the number of students who attend the programs.
