Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We will measure our outcomes by the number of people that attend our lending events and borrow artworks. We will also measure our outcomes by the number of artists that apply for our call for submission and artworks sold to borrowers. We will survey our artists and borrowers to learn about their experience and where there are opportunities for growth. These surveys will be anonymous and collected via Google survey/forms.

Measurable Outcome(s)

At our October lending event at Bryant Square, a total of 88 people attended. We had 27 new borrowers and 58 artworks were lent. At Logan Rec Center, 107 people attended, there were 23 new borrowers, and 69 artworks were checked out. Finally, at North Commons Rec Center, 107 people attended, there were 23 new borrowers and 73 artworks check out. During this grant period, we sold 10 artworks!
