Community Art Support
ACHF Arts Access
Funding for SOAR Regional Arts under this proposal will facilitate significant growth in the number of adults and youth participating in our programs. The following measurable outcomes will be achieved due to these grant funds: 1. The quantity of arts opportunities increases for adults and youth from four to six activities due to the implementation of classes and workshops in the next twelve months. 2. To improve and organize SOAR’s operations by SOAR board members focusing on an increased understanding of effective planning and evaluation strategies within the community by the end of the 2014-2015 season.S.O.A.R Regional Arts will implement appropriate short term evaluations for each event which include taking pre and post surveys that will measure the effectiveness of the classes and workshops. We will implement valid measurement systems to measure our program outcomes which relate to our long term goals for the organization. Jamie Reznicek, S.O.A.R Treasurer will be in charge of making sure that all methods of evaluation will be completed and documented throughout our programming. Once the evaluations are completed and compiled, the information will be brought to the Board of Directors for discussion. Documentation and evaluation results will be used to guide future planning and programming.
1. The quantity of arts opportunities increases for adults and youth from four to six activities. Through financial planning, we were able to offer two classes as well as four productions for our 2014-2015 year. 2. We continue to implement our strategic planning set in 2013. We review our goals and our progress at our monthly board meeting. We also found that changing course from survey evaluations to discussion groups have helped to facilitate a better understanding of our communities.
