Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Quantitative data will provide data showing the number of participants and volunteers helping with the mural painting (we are hoping for 60+) and 70%+ of the participants involved will be youth and disabled adults. Audience surveys will show that 75%+ resident feedback is positive about project, and 75%+ positive participant feedback results from surveys, etc. We will evaluate our anticipated outcomes with participant count, participant surveys, post-performance feedback, and community feedback surveys from residents.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We had 100+ people paint on the wall including around 40 kids, 60 adults and around ten members of the artist's "core group" ranging in age from 5-80 and all different backgrounds. Most murals of this kind are painted by one or two muralists with an airbrush; in comparison our mural was painted entirely by hand with brushes no larger than 1" wide making it the largest mural of its kind in Minnesota.
