Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

1. The Rochester Art Center will create and execute three educational programs that target underserved populations in Rochester through collaborations with area organizations. Evaluate new sources of funding and membership, audience surveys, and attendance/participation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Rochester Art Center created and executed three educational programs targeting underserved populations in Rochester through collaborations with area organizations: Boys and Girls Club Rochester; Hispanic Education Advocacy Program; and Alliance of Chicanos, Hispano, Latino Americans. The Boys and Girls Club project resulted in four photography exhibitions at four area venues of twenty works created by club members. The Hispanic Education Advocacy Program and Alliance of Chicanos, Hispano, Latino Americans projects resulted in an exhibition of murals displayed in the Rochester Area Foundation's atrium space. These groups also participated in an artist residency with Mexico City-based artist Miguel Calder≤n. Funding was received from Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council, Rochester Area Foundation, Minnesota Energy (Wisconsin Public Service Foundation), and The Clinton Family Fund. Each source was new to Rochester Art Center and each project was fully funded. Attendance fluctuated but served thirty to fifty participants. Participant surveys were completed. All public exhibitions were realized.
