Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Continue to 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: co-op artist scholarships are funded and implemented; diversity of co-op members grows (by age, ethnicity, gender, income level); number of co-op members grows. 2: HP continues to grow its accessible education and community programs to serve more Minnesotans of diverse backgrounds. Success measures: more classes made available for all ages; attendance at HP's Free Ink Days; expanded audiences from increased marketing and partnerships (tracked by Salesforce, surveys, social media).

Measurable Outcome(s)

HP's co-op is close to capacity - 51 artists are benefiting. HP has begun a diversity initiative to secure funding for co-op scholarships. Success of HP's Co-op measured by: number of artists in co-op; public feedback and print sales; artist annual evaluations; media coverage. 2: HP added new school visitors and community partners, and over 5,000 youth and adults benefited from these programs. Success measured by: increase in free classes offered (72% of youth served for free); continued visitor tracking and evaluations using Sales Force database; attendance at Free Ink days grew in 2016.
