Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Jury all artists for the 2014 event to help maintain the integrity of all artist forms. Keep the number or artists at each site small enough so the site can be managed effectively, yet large enough to give the visitors a variety of art forms. Help the local artists by giving them an opportunity to introduce their art form to the public while making a living wage.A questionnaire will be provided for all artists to fill out asking about their experience at Arts Off 84. This information will be compiled, analyzed and will be used for planning, marketing and fundraising for future events. We will also ask artists to fill out a monkey survey on-line to determine the amount of sales for each artist.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Successful adult arts activity with the majority of participants indicating an overall positive experience. Participating artists indicated an economic value in participating.
