By the end of the 2013-2014 school year, we intend to have 1.) a new series of work by two artists, 2.) 40 adults and ten youth involved in the creative process, 3.) up to twenty adult learners meeting the art standards required to complete one credit toward the completion of their high school diploma, 4.) the artists and licensed teacher will create ten new reflective assignments, 5.) 400 new contact hours to contribute to the sustainability of the program, and 6.) adult learners will be more deeply engaged in the artistic process as evidenced in their reflective journal assignments.The outcomes will be evaluated by: 1.) photographically documenting the work created by two artists, 2.) documenting attendance of the 40 adults and ten youth involved in the creative process, 3.) documenting up to twenty adult learners meeting the art standards required to complete one credit toward the completion of their high school diploma, 4.) creating ten new reflective assignments, 5.) recording 400 new contact hours to contribute to the sustainability of the program, and 6.) culling the learners' reflective journal assignments for evidence that they become more deeply engaged in the artistic process.
