1. Engage 500 visual artists in our programs: Essential Art Exhibition, FYI Workshop, High School Art Exhibition, Art Scope Galleries, Sketchbook and community collaborations. 2. Utilize the website, e-newsletter and social media to broaden our audience and get people engaged and interested in the arts activities in this community.Presenting high quality experiences for emerging and experienced artists, we will keep records of the participation by adults and youth. They will be surveyed to find their satisfaction and suggestions for improvement. Our website is an evolving tool to bring more people information and to link with social media and our e-newsletter, all of which are trackable to find the numbers of people participating.
Our vision for this fiscal year included a successful transition to a new Executive Director, a renewed evaluation of our programs and finances, and establishing new partnerships and collaborations with like-minded organizations and individuals. We tracked our progress on these goals by evaluating each program as it was produced and took into account the feedback from the community. We focused on our finances and now have a board member dedicated to the finances and book keeping.
