Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Present two quality live or virtual arts programs and related outreach activities each month during Covid related restrictions on theatre presenters. Through the use of surveys, phone calls, post-show discussions plus staff and board assessments, we will monitor quality and number of presentations, track community feedback/engagement to help shape future arts programs. 2: Increase virtual arts access to programs, for people with social, economic or physical barriers to the arts, by 50%. Number of opportunities provided will be tallied as well as number of participants. Success will be determined also by participant survey responses.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Presented a full season of 24 performances in the 2021-22 season plus additional events. HHT relied primarily on board assessments, post-show discussions, and individuals patron conversations to gain feedback on the performances and events. 2: This was a typo! It was supposed to say 'increase VISUAL arts' which we did. HHT started a new youth afterschool art club in fall 2021 and offered more art classes than ever before. The success from these has resulted in a dedicated Visual Arts Coordinator on staff to plan even more arts offerings.
