Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We will recruit professional artists and educators for program leadership roles so they may produce meaningful arts experiences for our community. The outcome will be evaluated by: measuring the number of professional artists recruited, collecting post-production evaluation data, and analyzing the data to inform future programming decisions. 2: We will expand our community collaborations to reach new audiences to serve more people of varied socioeconomic backgrounds, ages, and abilities. Outcome will be evaluated by measuring the number of new collaborations with schools, performing groups, and civic organizations, and the number of new artists and attendees involved in these activities.
