Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
1. Increase the percentage of artists applying from specific target communities, including artists of color, artists from greater Minnesota (outside the 11-county metro region), and first-time producers. 2. Increase participation levels in producer workshops. Use online and paper surveys.
Measurable Outcome(s)
1. Seventy-two percent of producers who completed our 2011 survey indicated that artists of color were involved in the production, up from 64% in 2010. Fifty-two percent of our 2011 producers had never produced at Minnesota Fringe Festival before. We had seven participating companies from greater Minnesota, up from six the previous year. 2. Twenty-seven companies took advantage of our producer workshops, either in group settings or with one-on-one sessions, and many more used our online producing resources. Feedback was very positive. Evaluation was done with producer surveys and in-office data collection regarding producer participation.
