Artist Initiative
ACHF Arts Access
I will introduce new audiences, including cross sector creatives, and the public with the work of Minnesota artists through monthly programs. Public engagement will be measured by program attendance to six programs, guest/speaker participation, and surveys. 2: Participating artists will broaden their knowledge of multiple artistic practices and models for supporting creative production and distribution. After programs conclude, participating artists and artists in attendance will be accounted for through attendance and will supply qualitative feedback through surveys.
Artists and creatives of various disciplines/sectors were introduced to new audiences, including cross-sector engagement. Public engagement was measured by program attendance paired with anecdotal data collected from attendees and participants. 2: Minnesota artists broadened their knowledge of various art practices and the models that support their production/distribution. Learnings were measured qualitatively through content and discussion, social media posts and continued/extended conversation, and through anecdotal data from interpersonal, digital, and survey feedback. Together these methods confirm that Minnesota artists were able to expand on their artistic abilities by learning from the experience of other artists.
