ACHF Arts Access
The Project Outcomes of our proposal are to: 1. Increase engagement, participation and access for youth with a special emphasis on youth with socioeconomic barriers. 2. Increase knowledge and appreciation of the arts by our participants. 3. Develop a better understanding of the the ins and outs of creating a production by the participants in the workshop We will evaluate and measure our proposed outcomes by having the students in the workshop fill out a postworkshop evaluation. The evaluation will be a roadmap to help guide our organization on what we did well, what we could do better, what we could be offering as opportunities in the future.
Through this project, my students were able to study a newly written choral composition, work with professional choristers, collaborate with composer Eric Whitacre and librettist Charles Anthony Silvestri and encounter medical terminology, learning the effects of cancer through dialogue with local medical professionals. These outcomes were then demonstrated through our performances.
