Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
We will seed artistic skills in 100 people at a minimum of five sites in the Phillips neighborhood. These learners will then create a minimum of 10 public art pieces to link the neighborhood through visual and literary arts. We will measure growth in artistic skills through pre and post surveys, and group evaluations of workshops. The public art pieces will be evaluated by neighbors and community artists as to artistic excellence and integration in the neighborhood.
