Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, the people who take this workshop will experience an attitude of excitement and wonder in this type of pottery building. The participants will learn about slab rolling clay and then creating mono-printing designs that will transfer on the rolled out clay. The evaluation method we use is a handout at the end of the workshop that is administered by the grant management person. The questions we ask include some demographic information to help us know where participants are from and how they learned of the class. Additionally, we ask what factors determined if they would/could take this class and if they were familiar with the teaching artist.
