ACHF Arts Access
Create programming that reaches out to underserved groups in Minnesota, including artists with disabilities, artists of color, and GLBT/queer-identified artists. Connect with at least four new organizations in an effort to reach new artist bases for the Cabaret. We’ll continue to invite artists of all backgrounds, cultures, sexual orientations and artistic genres on our stage and track as much information about each artist as we can. 2: Support Minnesota singer/songwriters and spoken word artists in their artistic development by providing opportunities to present works-in-progress to an audience. We will present at least ten singer/songwriters and ten spoken word artists of various backgrounds in our series. We’ll track how many audience members attend this free event and aim for at least 150 total, and we will speak with artists to find out if the experience was valuable to them.
Patrick’s Cabaret presented 55 performances with underserved groups in Minnesota including artists with disabilities, artists of color, and GLBTQ artists. Patrick’s Cabaret presented works-in-progress from sixteen singer/songwriters and spoken word artists at eight Calof Spoken Word Series evening performances to a total of 248 audience members. Artists received feedback, collaborated, and built audiences through this series.
