Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

An exhibit of new work in the Student Life Building at North Hennepin Community College as a cultural event for students, faculty and visitors. I will be successful if the work is completed, framed, displayed and seen by the public at North Hennepin Community College.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Iron Moccasin created twelve new works of mixed media prints and exhibited them at North Hennepin Community College in Brooklyn Center during the spring and summer of 2016. Both qualitative and quantitative measures were used to evaluate the outcome of this project. Twelve new prints using captured cell imagery were completed, framed, and exhibited in the Student Life Building at North Hennepin Community College. People were asked to sign in when they came to the TRIO campus center. There was written and verbal feedback about the project, as well as observations, by the Director of TRIO Programs, of visitor's reactions to the ongoing exhibit.
