Measured outcomes will be a slight increase in number of artists but also a higher quality of art presented. We will continue to ask our jury to use greater discretion in accordance to our criteria for artists. So, while we would like to continue to increase our numbers to a maximum of 70 artists, another measured outcome will be to increase numbers while maintaining quality of art on display. Another measured outcome will be to continue to increase Festival attendance by 10%. The number and quality of applications received, the number and quality of artists selected to participate by our independent jury, and the estimated crowd attendance (measured through input from the Saint Joseph Police Department and our experienced food vendors) are the methods we use to gauge whether or not we achieved our stated measurable outcomes.
More visibility for the works of authors and poets: ôThe Bookend,ö a large tent provided for authors, was busy throughout the day. Make Millstream a welcoming community for artists and offer a wide variety of art: artist feedback through our online survey showed that most felt very positive about their experience. Out of 34 responses, 15 stated that they had ôbetter than expectedö sales. Overall number of artists and quality of art increased: we received great feedback from attendees and artists.
