Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

By focusing on issues of identity as they relate to environmentalism, my project recognizes and addresses the real and perceived barriers that artists in the LGBTQA community must make art that relates to or that is somehow an expression of solely their sexual identity. Data regarding the goals of my project will be measured by attendance and voluntary questionnaires at my capstone event, as well as the numbers of followers, comments, and likes on the project's social media outlets, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube.

Measurable Outcome(s)

I drafted and composed a full length book, while meeting regularly with my creative advisors.
