Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

These improvements will give us the opportunity to open an office and be able to work toward the goal of having regularly scheduled programming, including gallery shows, pop-up sales, art classes for the community, Art Exploration opportunities for the community and workshop days for artists, throughout the year. At the end of September we will host the first pop-up artist sale and community art experience during the Redwood Falls Festival scheduled for Sept 28 from 9am-3pm. The new space will provide us with a tangible presence in the downtown area of Redwood Falls, creating better potential for increasing the member base and providing quality arts programming for the area. Success will be measured by attendance at the events, visits to the space and also in the increase in membership. Goals will be for 50 individuals to participate in the art activity during the fall festival and 50 individuals visiting the new space and a 10% increase in memberships within the first month of opening. Currently, the organization has 48 members.
