Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
We will build relationships with members of groups that have been underserved by the arts.By supporting Granite Area Arts Council in this equipment purchase, you will be allowing us to make our space available to the community. Currently we have 2 tables and no chairs. We will measure this achievement through the number and type of reservations in our space in the upcoming year. The tool will list date, name of organization, type of use and number served.
Measurable Outcome(s)
This equipment will allow us to expand our programs. We had a demand for the equipment and now we have it on location. We have the ability to generate revenue through facility reservations and this will help us by providing financial sustainability.
