ACHF Arts Access
To support for salary for our program director. Red Willow Arts Coalition will mark their ninth year of concerts in 2017. Board members are in regular attendance at the concerts, and spend considerable time visiting with those in attendance. We ask our patrons to share feedback in person and on our webpage, and each week we hear 'instant feedback' as the crowd disperses at the end of the evening. We also conduct a written survey at the end of the season. Through this survey we have learned what genres of music are the most popular (country, fifties/oldies, Bluegrass and Old Time, and which concert audiences enjoyed the most.
Our Program Director made presentations to several service groups throughout the community, and through these meetings was able to secure assistance with setup and tear down at several concerts.
