Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increasing awareness of cultural diversity in our community by way of the Arts. Evaluation will occur through participant questionnaires and a follow-up meeting with project planners.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The activity we hosted was a success with many participants coming together to learn and share the rich and vast culture of the local Anishinaabe. The turn out was higher than expected with many locals along with many visitors traveling to Warroad specifically to join us. We received alot of positive feedback on the many fronts: the venue, the learning opportunities, the sharing of knowledge, and simply a better understanding and appreciation for the local Anishinaabe culture.
