ACHF Arts Education
Minnesotans participate in the arts because arts experiences are relevant and accessible to them. Minnesotans learn, grow, or change because they participate in quality arts experiences. Grantees change, expand, or enrich the ways they connect to their communities. Minnesotans from groups traditionally underserved by the arts feel they have an authentic relationship to the grantee. Stories, videl/audio recordings, survey, interviews, observed behavior change, data collection.
The goals were met. Students were exposed to High level Jazz music and education.
