Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The quality, types and number of arts opportunities in our region, and the organizations or venues that offer them increases. New relationships with members of groups that have traditionally been underserved by the arts or by the applicant organization are built. They will create short surveys to be included in the programs handed out at Chautauqua and a similar survey will be created and placed at the tables during the Luncheon Lecture Series.
