Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The variety and number of arts opportunities in Northwest Minnesota will increase through bringing in children’s authors, music and singing, and other artists into the library. Evaluation will occur through audience, participant, and artist questionnaires, personal observation of activities, and attendance numbers.
Measurable Outcome(s)
We increased the number of programs held in 2015 by 48. Many of these events were unique to the library. We did provide audience questionnaires, informal interviews with artists and participants after events, and personal observations.
