Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this funding, young people will experience increased knowledge and skills regarding various artistic techniques across various genres and formats of learning through their interaction with experienced art teachers through hands on activities held at Gallery North Art Gallery. Evaluation methods include paper surveys administered post activity to measure whether participants experienced an increased measure of knowledge and skills. Teachers of the classes will collect anecdotal evidence of participant's increased knowledge and skills during the activity through conversation.
