ACHF Arts Access
To provide hands on education for students in real time environment, however, work study is not without expense. Our goal is to educate. We are learning all the time and much of it is through teaching. The Rourke Art Gallery Museum takes the opportunity of evaluation seriously and does so through counting attendance at events, evaluation forms for the Rourke Art Academy educational workshops/demonstrations/talks/performances, soliciting exposure through invitations for community clubs and organizations to use the facility for their own meetings and receptions, and City of Moorhead use of the building.
The portion of the operating budget that we were able to reallocate, thanks to LRAC funds directed to the museum's insurance policy, helped to support exhibitions of celebrated artists such as Fritz Scholder and Deborahmae Broad and of important emerging artists such as Ben Rheault, enhanced our presentation of the 58th Midwestern Exhibition on the theme ''Revolution'', and enabled us to make vital staff hires including an executive director and an exhibition coordinator.
