Arts Activities Support
ACHF Arts Access
We will have a script that is ready for production as indicated by approval from the audience and from the community members who participated in its creation. We will have participation from 100-200 members of the community, working with approximately 10-15 artists, culminating in a reading experienced by approximately 200 audience members. Participants and audience will indicate via surveys, discussions, and interviews a new or deepened understanding of the subject and increased connection to the communityWe will count participants and audience for story circles, workshops, and at the final play reading. We will also have regular check-ins with artists and participants and post-reading discussion with the audience and a final discussion with story circle and workshop participants after the final reading has past. We will also distribute pre- and post-workshop and reading surveys.
