ACHF Arts Access
Lakeshore Players will continue to be the northeast metro's premiere performing arts center while supporting the cultural activities of our community. Outcome will be measured by 1) attendance analysis of number of new and returning attendees; 2) number of attendees at education and enrichment events; 3) audience and participant surveys. 2: Lakeshore Players will actively recruit emerging artists and arts educators and place them in leadership roles. Outcome will be evaluated by 1) number of artists recruited; 2) post-production cast and crew surveys; and 3) internal assessment by staff and board of directors.
Regional families, youth, adults, seniors from all economic backgrounds benefitted from enrichment and education offerings in the performing arts. Box office sales reports and attendance data analysis revealed 1,647. New contacts added to our database for a total of 20,142. Outreach attendance increased by 3% over FY 2016. Surveys show overall positive engagement. 2: Lakeshore hired 81 artistic team leaders, twenty of whom were new in FY 2017, or 25%. An increased digital presence reaching more aspiring artists and building on the artistic director's years of networking in the theatre community are two reasons why we see increased interest among professional artists.
