Community Arts Access Project

Provide a quality opportunity for artistic growth and development for theater artists, musicians, songwriters and audience members from the Walker, Akeley and Northern Cass County region through participation in creating a theater event with twenty public performances of two productions. This project allows Minnesota Folklore Theater to continue to expand its vision and broaden its scope for community involvement in order to better engage more people in the arts in our community.Provide a before and after goal sheet for all artists/performers for self-evaluation of new learning; conduct verbal evaluation sessions with cast and crew at the completion of performances to assess artistic growth; conduct audience Q and A with performers after performances to assess engagement; provide comment card in programs; track audience numbers, ages, diversity; record verbal and written responses to the project.
