ACHF Arts Access
Continue a focused and large-scale effort to increase the accessibility of Children's Theatre Company's artistic and education offerings by bringing 80,000 patrons to performances through our ticket access programs; expanding programming for early learners, serving at least 7,000 children, caregivers, and early learning professionals; serving 550 low-income children through nationally recognized Neighborhood Bridges program. Evaluation methods include: audience and program service data analysis; demographic information analysis; audience surveys; and formal assessment (for Neighborhood Bridges). 2: Commission and produce world premiere work by both nationally acclaimed and local theatre artists that meets international standards of artistic excellence. Children's Theatre Company will increase the size of its resident acting company to include one additional artist from Minnesota; increase commissions to artists of color; increase engagement with suburban and exurban communities. Evaluation methods include: internal and external evaluations of artistic quality and rigor; diversity survey of staff, artists, board, and audience; ongoing donor and patron surveys.
CTC served more than 93,000 patrons through ticket access programs; 6,300 through programming for early learners; 667 through Neighborhood Bridges. Children's Theatre Company added one additional artist, Traci Allen, to the acting company; has two new works by artists of color in development; and continues to expand programs in suburban locations.
