ACHF Arts Access
Nearly 90% of residents who engaged in multiple art residences in the past two years have indicated that dance residencies have been their favorite, with nearly 85% indicating they would participate if another program was offered. Over 50% of residents of this senior care facility, who have limited opportunities to travel to live performances due to physical and financial limitations, will experience culturally diverse dance performances. Two further groups will take inspiration from these performances to apply in an extended interpretive dance and movement residency, with the goal to increase overall resident engagement in the residency and resident satisfaction scores by 25%. We will evaluate success of the performances using pre- and post-surveys with at least 75% of the resident audience in attendance, as well as attendant count and direct observation of resident mood pre- and post-performance. We will evaluate the dance and interpretive movement residency with the same criteria, also adding level of engagement and artist feedback.
