Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Members of the Latino and broader communities in the Twin Cities will have the opportunity to Experience culturally Latino art. We will evaluate this outcome through the collection of metrics such as number of participants, audience and their perception of art after the program (surveys, interviews and anecdotal information).

Measurable Outcome(s)

We engage members of the Latinx community and the broader Twin Cities community in a fun and satirical culturally specific art experience. We passed out surveys and we conducted spot interviews after the production.
