Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Rimon Artist Salon Series intends to engage 250 participants over the course of the four events, at least 75 of whom are under the age of 40. 25% of the participants will be attending a Rimon event for the first time. Audience participation will be measured by the number of tickets sold. The participant's experience with the Rimon event will be measured by an audience survey and through post-event dialogue and correspondence.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Reach new audiences: 36% of the Artist Salon participants had never attended a Rimon Artist Salon before. Create professional opportunities for artists: three artists received commissions from Rimon, resulting in challenging new work that otherwise would not have been created. Highlight diverse arts media: An art form that had not previously been presented--paper cutting--was showcased.
