Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Northfield Arts Guild will broaden its reach by working across organizational silos to connect more of the community to cultural opportunities. We will establish a new partnership with the Northfield Library and Northfield Historical Society and will work to collect demographic info in order to evaluate whether we are effective at reaching new, younger, and more diverse audiences.
