Community Arts
ACHF Arts Access
We expect 80 children, ages birth to 5 years old to attend classes with their parents, grandparents, or caregivers and approximately 75% of the registered families to attend our Family Music Night in the spring. We expect that 90% or more of the families enrolled will experience increased singing and dancing in the home as a result of class activities. Parents, grandparents, and caregivers will be asked to fill out a questionnaire asking for observations of their child's growth and learning as a result of class activities as well as their own musical behaviors in the home. Our board of directors will meet to discuss questionnaire results as well as class enrollment numbers, geographical distribution of enrolled families, and number of families using scholarships and sibling discounts.
About 33% of registered families, including parents, grandparents and siblings, attended Family Music Night and participated in singing, dancing, and instrument playing with accompanying music provided by the five musicians in Rum River Brass, a brass quintet. Approximately 90% of families registered indicated that they were bringing music into their homes more often because of the classes.
