ACHF Arts Access
Artists bring cultural, social and economic benefit to their communities as they thrive creatively and financially, both locally and across the region. Studio artists, artists-in-residence, and artists participating in programs are interviewed and anonymously surveyed regarding the Anderson Center's impact on creative practice, ability to generate revenue, and engagement with Minnesota communities. 2: Artistic programming that is conceptually engaging and technically accomplished inspires, educates, and connects diverse audiences. Qualitative feedback such as stakeholder and participant comments, along with recorded data like surveys that ask for a three-word description of participants? experiences, demonstrate the personal and collective impact of Anderson Center arts programs.
Artists strengthened their networks, grew in their creative practices, and connected with each other and audiences. Progress was tracked through surveys of artists and audiences, combined with quantitative data about local economic impact. 2: Programs provided quality-of-life benefits to audiences in the Red Wing Area and beyond, almost half of whom rarely attend other arts events. Audiences were primarily measured through written surveys, supplemented by verbal surveys of visitors and through ticketing data for paid events.
