ACHF Arts Access
The full public is able to experience the art of dance, whether as participants or audience members. The Duluth Ballet will evaluate the diversity of participation in its programs, the effectiveness of its access policy, and the fulfillment of the public’s scope of needs, especially those of nontraditional dance audiences and participants using staff and board observation of audience diversity; summary of age categories for tickets, seating provided to service organization clients, parent feedback of class for children with developmental challenges. 2: Through the Duluth Ballet’s programs, the dance arts flourish in Northern Minnesota and beyond in the state. The Duluth Ballet will evaluate its success in developing its repertoire, enhancing the company’s artistry, training students, meeting and improving the area’s outreach needs, and helping other organizations through collaborations using audience survey of repertoire, performance reviews, artistic staff observation of company and students, public school teacher surveys for outreach programs, feedback from Symphony Orchestra’s String Quartet.
All Ballet programs were handicapped-accessible; breadth of programing appealed to all ages, back-grounds, education level, mental challenges, income. Dance thrives from the Ballet’s dancer development, student training, performances of story ballets and stimulating works, outreach, and state tours.
