Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Kairos Alive! will deliver interactive streamed arts engagement sessions that promote growth in enjoyment of and participation in these art forms. Kairos Alive! will use pre- and post-participant surveys for all of our weekly live, web-streaming shows from our studio in Minneapolis, to evaluate changes in understanding, enjoyment and physical participation between program beginning and end. 2: Kairos Alive! will expand arts engagement experiences for underserved audiences, with older adults and people of all ages with disabilities. We will tally venues and number of participants; surveys show acceptance and enjoyment of streamed and in-person arts engagement programming.
