Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Red Eye will provide a continuum of opportunities for the authentic engagement of the next generation of artists and artistic leadership. Red Eye debriefs with artist participants after each project. Artists also submit written evaluations of their experience with our programs. Lastly, our strategic plan includes specific outputs we will be using to help evaluate progress. 2: Red Eye will be a leading facilitator of critical feedback sessions for artists developing performance works. A cornerstone of Red Eye's approach to supporting the development of new work, this outcome will be accomplished through the on-going practice of the feedback protocols embedded in all our programming.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Red Eye provided a continuum of opportunities to next generation artists through a variety of access points, including new works, co-sponsorship, mainstage and arts education programs. Artists who participated in our FY 2015 programs evaluated their experience in facilitated debriefing sessions and by submitting written evaluations. Both methods supplied qualitative feedback that will inform future programming. 2: Red Eye embedded feedback protocols in each of its programs, introducing and modeling a practice of responding to work throughout the development process. Results were measured by audience comments and reviewer responses to the quality of the work created. Also, participating artists noted in final reports how informative it was to receive and give feedback using this type of facilitated structure.
