ACHF Arts Education
10 Student Artists will receive intensive training in traditional arts from three master artists. 135 - 270 community members will participate in community workshops and will deepen their knowledge of traditional arts. Several hundred community members will participate in two educational public art events. The Project Administration Team along with the Master Artists will outline separate and shared anticipated goals and outcomes. We will hire an Evaluator who has a background in working with Indigenous and POCI communities because our communities’ definition of success and progress is circular and holistic (physical, emotional, spiritual health), focusing more on qualitative and process rather than numbers and product. We will seek recommendations from our extensive network of community partners for an appropriate Evaluator. The Evaluator will help us in crafting the questions for the Entrance and Exit surveys for the Artists and lead the Project Evaluation and provide a report that we can use to improve IR and our future projects/programs and to share with our peers and partners.
