Grow HP's artist co-op program: goals include funding scholarships for artists, expand diversity of artists served, and offer new opportunities for artists. Measures of success: artist scholarships are funded and implemented; diversity of co-op artists grows (by age, gender, ethnicity, income level); number of co-op artists grows. 2: HP continues to grow its accessible education and community programs to serve more Minnesotans of diverse backgrounds. Success measured by: more free classes made available to all ages; increased attendance at community Free Ink Days; expanded audiences from increased marketing activities (tracked by database, online surveys, social media).
