Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To create public awareness of all-inclusive international art opportunities. To foster opportunities for artistic fellowship. To demonstrate that international exhibitions are accessible in our communities. To create and share art traditions from our communities with the international art community.An exit survey will be conducted on paper at the tour stops and electronically (via email, SurveyMonkey, Facebook, twitter, etc.). The survey will be show that over 50% of participants are more aware of potential community-building arts opportunities; over 50% are more aware of the breadth of art available in our communities than they were before the events; over 50% learned something and enjoyed the experience. The survey will include an item about the respondent's age. Each location will be encouraged to create an emailing list of event participants to increase feedback potential.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Based on the results, reception of these events was effective and positive. I have submitted documentation of the evaluation.
