Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

15 low-income young adults and adults with disabilities will explore and develop their art skills in the mosaic classes. 90% of the arts learners' will indicate they have become better artists. A majority of audience members attending a public exhibition of the arts learners' work will express that they were inspired by the creative capacity of people with disabilities. HFC' s Assistant Program Director will survey the arts learning participants at the end of the classes about their experience. HFC staff and volunteers will survey audience members at the public exhibition using an audience tool created in part by the Improve Group and Upstream Arts to gather information about the audience members' experience.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The most significant outcomes were the impact on the learners and the audience for the readings. Among survey responders, 100% felt they had become better artists and were proud of the work they had done. Among audience members, 100% were moved by the writings and storytelling.
