Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The number of Minnesotans who are able to participate and learn in the arts increases through exposure to abstract painting where 85% of students state it was a positive learning experience. Evaluation will occur through a participant questionnaire, an artist questionnaire, a follow-up meeting with project planners, interviews, and attendance numbers.

Measurable Outcome(s)

There is not an art program at Stephen/Argyle, and 100% of students in the High School had the opportunity to experience art. Students felt Heidi was honest, helpful, excited, laid back, used music, and had a lot of creative control.
