Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Residents build connections to their own and others' cultural heritage through events and/or activities; MN folk and traditional artists/audiences are expanded; MN folk and traditional artists see an increase in demand for work. Interviews/Conversations with board/staff/leaders ; Reviewing recorded information or documentation (such as finances, attendance records, work plans)

Measurable Outcome(s)

After follow up meetings with DI artistic staff, and written and verbal feedback from St. David's staff, it was clear that most students were introduced for the first time to performance-based creativity. They grew in their ability to express themselves verbally and musically as well as being able to regulate physical movement for the purpose of working together and communicating with their body. By doing session during two different seasons we were also able to deliver early classes online and later classes in person. Both were successful.
