Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The impetus for this project was to provide a focal point in the cemetery, inviting any visitors to rest and meditate. The outcome for the Public Arts Commission is the introduction of a new, interesting and abstract art piece to our city’s permanent collection. The goal is to broaden the concepts of art to the public. Produce an online survey available through our website. Surveying visitors to the cemetery through the cemetery office.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Evaluating this program was the successful completion of the project, including having enough funds to pay the final costs.
