Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Community Arts Support funding will allow Heartland Arts to expand the organization's visibility in the area. By maintaining a website, posting arts events on Facebook and publishing the Art Beat magazine, Heartland Arts will continue to make information free, accessible to residents and visitors and easily shared. Heartland Arts also will continue to share opportunities for artists and arts organizations. Evaluation methods include board discussion and board minutes reflecting audience numbers and feedback on Art Beat to measure regional residents participation in area arts events. Board members and artists also will continue to share opportunities that benefit artists month to month.
