Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of the program, the adult learners of the Clearwater County area will experience an increased knowledge of the Swedish painting art form called Kurbits as well new skills in the Sami tradition of sewing and bracelet making. Students of the watercolor workshop with David R Smith will learn new skills that will open new doors of discovery and creativity. Evaluation forms will be distributed and collected at the end of each workshop that will measure the outcomes we expect from the adult learners that are taking these workshops.
