Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project, children and adults will be able to participate in and learn new skills in traditional arts and cultural activities. Evaluation will occur through the number of artists that are involved in teaching their art/craft, the number of participants that take each class and the awareness of traditional arts and crafts that is brought to the wider community.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The Pine to Prairie Folk School exceeded our goal of providing traditional and cultural folk art classes. In addition to 58 class attendees we had over 60 youth and adults attend our "Meet the Maker" event. We hosted a dozen artists from northern Minnesota in classroom settings and featured a dozen artists at our maker event.
