Operating Support
ACHF Arts Access
Empower 400 children/youth per year to discover, appreciate, and nurture their artistic talents and identity in the context of family and community. Attendance and enrollment records will track student participation and retention rates. Student surveys (for older youth) and teacher observations (for younger children) will be used to track increased interest in the arts. Expand opportunities for families of UAA students to engage in art education and help families overcome barriers to participation. Attendance records at each family event will be used to measure engagement. Surveys and interviews with parents and family members will be used to collect feedback about family events and assess the impact of the events.
Urban Arts Academy engaged 410 youth in preschool through grade 8 in arts programming and also launched a new arts program for high school youth. Program records tracked participation, and program evaluations tracked participant interests, skill development, and engagement. 2: Urban Arts Academy hosted three Family Nights and two Art Nights, each of which engaged around 100 participants, as well as Fall and Spring festivals which had around 150-200 attendees each. Event records and head counts were used to track participation of family members. Surveys with family members provided input on satisfaction and collected ideas for program improvement.
