Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The June Bloom event seeks to increase access to and participation in the arts by developing a new event. The June Bloom Committee gauges success by the number of artists who participate in the event. All participating artists are asked to complete a survey to provide feedback on the event. The Committee also performs their own, unscientific, "eye test" on the event to gauge attendance by the public.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Participation by local artists and attendance by the public. All participating artists were surveyed to get their comments.
