ACHF Arts Access
Community organizations will have access to arts programs that allow their participants to experience, understand, create and connect to art. Success will be measured by holding programs at five or more types of non-arts organizations; e.g., schools, libraries, hospitals, homeless shelters, where all residency participants will create at least one piece of original art. In program evaluations, 85% of participants agree they learned. 2: People from across Minnesota, of many ethnicities and abilities, will participate in COMPAS programs. Success will be measured by at least 35% of COMPAS’ roster artists will be people of color. Programs reach people in all eight Minnesota congressional districts. All in attendance at residencies are given ways to participate in art creation.
Art lovers in schools, libraries, hospitals, nursing homes, homeless shelters, community centers, public parks and more, made art with their own hands. Programs took place in at least nine types of non-arts organizations. All residency participants created a unique work of art, either singly or collectively. Program evaluations show over 85% of participants agree they learned. People from all corners of Minnesota, of many ethnicities and abilities, had the opportunity to participate in creative arts experiences with COMPAS. 44% of COMPAS’ roster artists are people of color.
