Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Art4Trails will result in the installation of five new public art pieces along the bike trails near downtown Rochester. Art4Trails will attract proposals from emerging local artists, giving them a chance to publicly display their creations. Interview the five selected artists to determine their response to participation in Art4Trails. Survey the audience who participates in the unveiling of the Art4Trails sculptures (Capstone event) to determine their satisfaction with Art4Trails.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Outcomes: 1. 5 new pieces of sculpture were installed on the Rochester Bike Trails. 2. A bike tour was organized to unveil the sculptures on June 3, 2017. Both were accomplished.
