Qualitative data gathering may include storytelling, drawing or writing. 2: Diverse communities will feel comfortable encountering the Guthrie. To better capture culturally-specific responses, outcome will be evaluated through qualitative data collected using instruments developed with and customized for each nonprofit partner.
The Guthrie developed and implemented programming that responded to the stated needs of three North Minneapolis community organizations. Outcomes were evaluated through a three-step process: pre-program surveys, qualitative evaluations and post-program surveys. Qualitative data gathering included storytelling, drawing, writing, performance and video. 2: The Guthrie developed new ways to interface with new communities that created a more welcoming atmosphere for those audiences. The Guthrie administered pre- and post-play surveys when project participants came to Guthrie productions.
