Artist Initiative
ACHF Arts Access
The applicant will mount a show of her Boreal forest photographs and will lead a nature workshop at the Bloomington Theatre and Art Center. The exhibition and special events will be attended by an estimated 7,000 visitors to the Bloomington Theatre and Art Center.
The project was completed: showing the photographs, leading workshop/artist talks, and making her work available to a wide variety of Minnesotans. The methods used were through attendance figures kept by Artistry of the exhibition Amidst Trees, including the opening, the artist talk, and the month-long viewing cycle. The attendance numbers exceeded the proposed estimates, although the exact numbers are difficult to determine. During the grant period the artist also gave informal talks to students, classes, and individuals about the work in the exhibition beyond the venue of Artistry.
