Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

RCTC will provide a great venue for the art to be seen as well as the artists to be heard during gallery talks. The venue also provides a way for other students that wouldn't normally seek out art an opportunity to see contemporary work. On a sign I will provide my Instagram and Facebook information and encourage viewers to interact with me on social media. A sign in book will be available to collect attendance. Finally, I will record my artist talk and post on my website.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We had a very large turn out. I was able to get some students from RPS ALC which was a bonus. We also attracted three curators from the cities that will encourage more artists to apply to RCTC to show in the future.
