ACHF Arts Access
The number of Minnesotans who are able to participate in the arts increases. The quality, types and number of arts opportunities in our region, and the organizations or venues that offer them increases. A survey will be conducted in two ways. We will include a printed survey in the lobby that people can easily mark during intermission or after the performances and we will send an email survey to our patrons and families. All results will be compiled by our Artistic Director.
Our evaluation funds were used for PPE, however we did compile a survey for our families to see how they felt about the year ending virtually so that we could gear our summer curriculum appropriately.
