ACHF Arts Access
1) As Artist of different genres, we would like to challenge ourselves to grow with a three-dimensional display and creation of an interactive gallery. 2) We would like the community to learn more about the Prohibition history of Granite Falls through the 2D Art work and getting an actual feel through this interactive live display. Allowing the community to see themselves within the legacy at the end of the process. We will conduct quantitative as well as open ended question surveys for the participants. Evaluation tools (surveys) will be tailored based on the makeup of community partners who engage, ensuring all organizations receive feedback helpful to future endeavors. Question will include asking regarding areas we were accessible and ways we could improve, critiques on what would make another arts focused community event more enjoyable, and demographic data if offered.
