For our Manomin Park Sound Garden workshops and event, we hope to engage 100 local community members as participants and 400 as attendees to the Sound Garden event. We intend to include at least twenty different artists, across disciplines (poetry, music, dance, sculpture, visual art) as collaborators, teaching artists, and performers. Our goal is to have qualitative outcomes from audience surveys that reflect 75% respond that this was a unique, meaningful experience that they would like to have more opportunities to do again. Our evaluations will be based on participant info from registration and event materials (numbers, demographics), as well as participant and audience surveys (qualitative impacts) compiled at each workshop and event. Survey results will be compiled in shareable databases for future reference and organizational feedback.
