1.) As our 4th successful ArtBlast, one of the outcomes was to enhance the reputation of Rosemount as a community that supports the arts and provides traditional and new/ unique opportunities to experience the arts. We had about 2500 audience participants and over 250 artists taking part in ArtBlast. 2. Our second outcome was to provide a time and place to create art in a low risk environment.
