Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The funded exhibition will be the inaugural exhibition for Platform, and as such, it is pivotal in reflecting the organization's mission, including diversity and gender equality, and in addressing subjects of cultural and social importance to our community. Outcomes include attendance (at least 300 people during the run of the exhibition, including the opening reception, artist talk and daily attendance), publicity (one or more articles/reviews), and an important challenge for the artist, as the exhibition will feature her first works in sculpture and installation (success of the project). Attendance will be measured by our director, whose office will be at the entrance to the gallery. Publicity will be measured by print and/or radio features/interviews/reviews of the artist's work in the exhibition. Artistic success will be evaluated by the artist, the director/curator, comment book posts, and publicity.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The project did not take place. The only funds expended was a 7% fee to our fiscal sponsor, Springboard for the Arts ($700).
