Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Artists will work with officials, partners, and residents on neighborhood improvement and policy initiatives. Maximize potential of JXTA campus in the West Broadway corridor of North Minneapolis. Track participation from the Northside community in public programs and track new relationships regionally and nationally. 2: Take social ventures to scale, employ more young artists, and connect them to college and careers. JXTALabs increase the number of youth employed year round. Complete plan, and pilot test JXTALab 2.0 next step for JXTA apprentices to continue to higher education and career pathways in art and design.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Artists worked with officials, partners and residents on neighborhood improvement and policy initiatives. The Minneapolis Parks Foundation, Trust for Public Land, Minneapolis Downtown Improvement District and Metro Transit all hired JXTA to work on community engagement related to transportation planning and other urban planning projects. Increased youth artists employed from 56 in 2014 to 65 in 2015. 78% of youth employed at JXTA live in North Minneapolis where we are located and rooted. We piloted Pathways to College and Careers which will be a full program next year.
