ACHF Arts Access
1. Spoken word will become widely acknowledged as a relevant art-discipline in Central Minnesota. 2. New Connections will be made (new friends, new partnerships, new voices), therefore strengthening the creative culture of St. Cloud. 3. Audience members will discover Spoken Word, whether or not they do it themselves.; To create a ongoing celebration and build a spoken word community in the st cloud and surrounding area. We will have a print out survey, that can be easily transferred to a digital google form. Also, since many people don't fill them out, we will have a public board that will have the same questions but with stars and sharpies to share their answers. We will also ask accessibility questions as well, in order to improve the events for our neighbors. We will use photography of the events as a way to track numbers, demographics, and reactions to the performances. We will track the performers with sign up sheets, capturing demographic information.; Every session we will have multiple ways of connecting with individuals and others.
