Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To improve quality of adult and youth education programs, expand and diversify participation, and deepen connections to Textile Center’s core constituents. Textile Center will measure program attendance against overall capacity and evaluate program quality and student diversity through class participant surveys. 2: To inspire and engage Minnesotans year round, we’ll present up to 20 fiber art exhibitions that showcase nearly 200 artists, represent cultural diversity, and are free and open to public. Textile Center will track demographics of featured artists and attendance for each exhibition and will gain written feedback in guest books included with each show.
