Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increase the number of individuals traditionally underserved by Bloomington Theatre and Art Center who participate in high quality arts programs. We will compare the numbers and demographics of people participating in our programming from fiscal year 2014 to fiscal year 2015. 2: Increase opportunities for audiences to learn and grow by interacting with artists. We will compare the number and quality of our audience engagement activities (e.g., artist talks, tours, classes) from fiscal year 2014 to fiscal year 2015.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We have expanded outreach programming, increasing audiences 52% over FY 2014. Actual counts of participants, and data provided by each school's state-certified demographics show marked increases in numbers served and diversity of participants. 2: Attendance at artist talks increased 18%, and public engagement hours skyrocketed as our Creative Placemaking projects launched. Actual attendance at artist talks, and tracking hours of public contact in each of our three very public Demonstration Projects for Creative Placemaking in the South Loop.
