ACHF Arts Access
TTT will break down barriers to arts participation, affording access to quality theater to those previously excluded due to geography or circumstance. We will survey audiences about barriers experienced to arts participation, if show was relevant to their lives, whether venue impacted attendance, whether they would be inclined to see more theater. 2: TTT shows will evoke emotional, thoughtful or visceral responses, opening Minnesota audiences to new ideas, feelings, experiences or perspectives. We will collect audience responses to our shows via written surveys, verbal talkbacks, recorded reflections, and postshow interviews with staff from partner organizations.
