Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The variety and number of folk and traditional arts activities in which Minnesotans can participate increases. The number of Minnesotans who participate in folk and traditional arts activities increases.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We brought the Community Bandolier Bag to public venues for people to actually participate in creating a Community Bandolier Bag. We went to 14 public venues and each participant signed into our book and we photographed participants as well as the progress of beading the Community Bandolier Bag. These photos were uploaded onto the “Bandolier Bag Project” Facebook page that we created. www.facebook.com/bandolierbagproject 2: Since the majority of participants had little or no experience beading and little knowledge about the Bandolier Bag, we not only discussed the Bandolier Bag but also provided an opportunity for anyone to bead on at all public venues that we attended. We had a direct dialogue with the participants and we asked them if they had any experience beading or knowledge of the Bandolier Bag.
