Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

More than 100 people participate in both the design process and the painting of the mural at community paint days led by GoodSpace Murals artists. The Historic Walker Lake Merchants Association adopts public art and placemaking as a goal and brings the Placemaking Committee under its organizational umbrella to design and implement future projects. We will count the number of people at community mural design and paint events. We will survey area business owners and merchants’ association members about their experience with the project and interest in future public art and placemaking activities.

Measurable Outcome(s)

60 people from the community, including many seniors and some youth, participated in painting a section of the mural. The project web page received 400 visitors, and videos giving background on different design components of the mural received more than 2,000 views.
