Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, youth 8-18 years of age will experience increased knowledge and experience with new artistic skill sets learned in a community-based and connected environment. Whether in a workshop or class, each youth will be encouraged to pursue their own unique creativity, while learning about others in their group. In a shared creative experience, there is a greater opportunity to notice and appreciate how we each express ourselves in unique and different ways. ?Evaluation methods will include written surveys and in person interviews administered during and post activity. For youth who participated in the class we will also seek feedback from their parents and their direct and indirect experience of the class.
