Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide access to participation in the arts for more Minnesotans. Raise the quality, types and number of arts opportunities in our region, including an increase in the organizations or venues that offer them. Video/audio recordings, still photos, interviews, observed behavior change, data collection (attendance at Community Paint-in).

Measurable Outcome(s)

The design and content creates a sense of celebration functioning as a gateway to Levee Park depending a public appreciation for public art. People discover the connection with the river through reflection. It is appealing to all ages because of the bright colors. The goal of community participation shows with the background murals.
