Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project participants will have a new awareness of three different art mediums which will hopefully teach them knew skills to get them excited to try more art related classes and projects in the future. Evaluation will occur through a questionnaire given to participants and parents of the participants as well as seeing what our numbers are compared to past years.

Measurable Outcome(s)

My goal for camp art was to have 60 attendees total and we have 62 so the goal was met, and a bit exceeded. The questionnaire gave feedback letting me know that participants would like to have at least one type of performing artist for camp art. As a result of the activities we have many participants the opportunity to work with art mediums that they had never worked with such as papier mache and printmaking.
