Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this operational support grant funding, the Nemeth Art Center will be able to retain an Executive Director to ensure financial and leadership stability for the NAC, provide continued growth in arts programming and expansion of the NAC's artistic vision by encouraging diverse programming that will build the reputation of the art center by developing relationships with audiences in the community, state and throughout the nation. Membership and other donations from fundraising efforts will be tracked to verify if the financial goals for the Nemeth Art Center are met. A survey will be available for exhibit & event attendees to rate their experience with the art center's exhibits and expanded programing and to share where they are visiting from.

Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of the first year of CAS grant funding, the regional community in North Centeral Minnesota was able to view high quality art exhibited in a lovely and free space, with educational opportunities to hear from artists themselves, and to engage with art through other arts events, which expanded the scope of what art forms are presented within our space, and expand the audience that participated in our events.
