Operating Support
ACHF Arts Access
1. People of all ages, ethnicities, and abilities participate in the arts. 2. The arts thrive in Minnesota. Evaluate enrollment statistics and demographics (race, gender, socioeconomic status); financial growth in earned and contributed income; new and sustained partnerships; ticket sales; and new audience members. Use written evaluations by teachers to identify beginning and ending skill levels of students and measurable progress toward established goals. Use written evaluations by student participants to reflect the student experience/student satisfaction. Regularly schedule program curriculum, review, and revision by staff and board members.
1. Lundstrum Center takes pride in serving an exceptionally diverse student population. This year, student ages ranged from 2-81. We practice blind casting to ensure the diversity of our on-stage performers, and our performances attract audience members of many ages, ethnicities, and abilities. Our work with our community partners and activities such as the FLOW Northside Arts Crawl largely serve constituencies of color. We remain dedicated to expanding our Dancemania classes for differently enabled students. 2. Serving an expanded number of students and responding to changing needs of our constituents, while maintaining a commitment to excellence, remains an institutional goal. Student enrollment grew 55% from fall 2010 to fall 2011. The Lundstrum Center is committed to its North Minneapolis location, and takes special pride in its service to north side children, their families, and communities as a whole. Our process for assessment/evaluation remains as proposed, with two key revisions: Student assessments now include additional rubrics, with specific technical improvements; we added parent-teacher conferences, which has improved communication with the families we serve.
