Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our goal is to host fifteen Printing Open Houses at the Proof Public studio between May and November 2018, engaging between 125 and 300 individuals, 4-5 contributing artists that do NOT currently sit on our Advisory Board, and five partner organizations. Our goal is 100% participation by open house attendees in the activities of printmaking, either producing their own print or in collaboration with a friend, and to have 60% of attendees meet criteria as coming from a traditionally marginalized community (see Evaluation Plan for more details). We will maintain a participant count for each event, as well as archiving one copy of each print or poster created. We will conduct optional surveys of participants to gather demographic data and hope to have at least 60% of attendees from traditionally marginalized communities, whether by race/ethnicity, gender/GLBT, income level, or differently abled communities.
