Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Allison's project will give the Monticello community not merely another public mural, but another opportunity to experience art being created publicly. The subject matter is intended to increase empathy. School and scout groups will fill out worksheets that will tell us what they got out of the experience of attending Q and A sessions. General public feedback will be collected online and in person at the formal installation ceremony.
