Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide a marginalized and underserved diverse audience of young people with equitable access to relevant, engaging, and meaningful arts opportunities. This outcome will be evaluated through participant surveys, the number of attendees who participate, the number of young people that work for the organization, and the number of students who participate in meaningful arts opportunities and programs.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Catalyst provided young people with access to relevant and meaningful arts opportunities, including many marginalized and underserved BIPOC youth. We surveyed participants and tracked show attendance and participation in activities. Nearly all (95%) Burnsville Youth Collaborative program students said they learned something new and most (75%) said they'd recommend the program to a friend.
