Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

In an effort to expand library experiences to adults in our service area, we want to offer a fun and free art event at the library for adults during the winter months. We hope to bring in new adults to our buildings and help showcase the library as a community center for all kinds of enriching programming.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Our patrons clamored to sign up for these two painting programs, led by local artist Karen Tan. Registration filled up right away and our attendees appreciate the opportunity to gather together in the community and learn an artistic skill.
