Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The documentation of work produced for archival, personal and public collections and professionalization purposes. Community interest in the monograph and web site as well as creating connections with the libraries and historical society.

Measurable Outcome(s)

I have a functioning, web site and an almost complete monograph. The second half of the project has yet to be completed so I haven't yet gotten the monograph into the libraries and historical society but the midway library and MCAD library have shown interest in the work in progress.
