Evaluation will be measured by number of programs offered, demographics served, reflective conversations and evidence of arts learning. 2: At least 4-5 non-arts organizations will integrate the arts into community life due to partnerships and efforts of ESAC. ESAC partners with social and civic groups in areas like urban design of the East Side. Success will be evaluated by projects completed.
