Measurable Outcome(s)

ArtSpark! effectively reduced barriers to participation by providing free monthly arts education activities and take home activities in neighborhood parks and expanding to after school classes at two middle schools. We counted people and how many project bags were picked up, as well as held many one on one conversations with participants. We developed a positive working relationship with one middle school who helped get messaging out to students in advance of the summer ArtSpark! program. This relationship then led to an after school program at Blackhawk Middle School. Programming then expanded to Dakota Hills Middle School in November/December. Eagan Art House has been trying to reach the middle school age group for several years and are grateful that this grant made it possible.
