Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of having a community arts hub, artists are provided a space to sell, teach, and learn which creates an atmosphere for expanded community growth and education through sharing of ideas and diversity in mediums, bringing about individual change. Artists as well as community members will be surveyed regarding the impact this community arts hub is making / or has made on their lives.

Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of the first year of CAS funding, 10 visiting artists were able to showcase their personal art work for one month free of charge at Gallery North. In addition, 20 home artists at the gallery were able to sell, teach, and take classes from their peers which allowed for sharing of ideas and diversity in mediums, bringing about change in individual knowledge. The general public gained knowledge about various genres and methods through hands on classes taught by experts.
