Digital Art for Everyone a creative series of 10 classes that will engage 80 middle school, high school and adult participants to develop technical and creative skills to produce visual art, design art and photography. The project will engage four multidisciplinary artists – sculptors, industrial and architectural designers, photographers and other visual artists – in planning and implementation.Leonardo’s Basement will evaluate the success of the project through constant communication with project beneficiaries: four artists and 80 participants. Artistic success will be measured by the number of professional and emerging artists that participate. Artists will evaluate their projects and the classes. What did they learn? What was successful? Did they connect with other artists? Learn new teaching techniques? Participants will measure success by skills acquired and completed artwork. Staff will collect survey data from participants. What did they learn? How did the event impact them personally? Did they have fun? What activity did they enjoy the most? Did they explore their own ideas and create art with meaning? Did they learn new skills, solve problems and make decisions? Work with others? Media coverage will provide anecdotal evidence of success.
