Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

3 artists (or artist teams) will be chosen to engage in a structured and supported learning opportunity culminating in three public works-in-progress showings. Approximately 28 artists will be engaged in the overall project, and 135-150 audience members will attend the showings. Our evaluation plan consists of audience and participant counts, audience surveys, post-program participant and artist surveys, and post-program verbal feedback from participants and project team. In addition, we will consider informal feedback from audience members, participants, and artists throughout the entire program.

Measurable Outcome(s)

151 people attended (and offered engaging feedback for) 3 presentations of 3 new works-in-progress. The program involved 28 artists: 6 selected project leaders, 7 supporting artists/mentors, 13 collaborating ensemble artists, and 2 ASL-interpreters. 60% of audience members indicated this was their first experience with Umbrella Collective.
