Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We would like to encourage personal growth and improved social skills in our disabled and elderly client participants. Three ways: 1) The number of clients who participate, 2) Data collected by volunteers who will observe and record authentic indicators, and 3) A focus group who will review the data and discuss activity in relation to personal growth of participants. 2: Participants have art experiences that lead to a greater sense of community, and increased work options that contribute to their well-being. Four ways: 1) Document number of audience members, 2) Survey businesses hosting art to show a greater level of integration with client population, 3) Record of participant's personal reflections, and 4) Compilation of results.
