Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Artists and arts organizations build relationships with members of, or organizations that serve, groups that have traditionally been underserved by the arts or by the applicant organization.Anecdotal responses, contacts made, relationships built, ideas generated.
Measurable Outcome(s)
It was very inspirational and affirming with many good ideas that can be adapted to fit the Dassel community. It exceeded my expectations. I learned how the arts can cultivate economic development and steps to take to bring that about. I think city administrator and government officials would definitely benefit from the information and ideas provided at the summit. I am very enthused about gathering a group of interested community members to discuss economic development in Dassel. I have already begun to use the information about partnering with diverse groups within the community to bring new life to Dassel.
