Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Art camp provides an artistic experience to approximately 150 students in the area who would not otherwise have the opportunity for art classes outside of school. The goal of the Eyota Days Art Camp is to utilize the talent of southeast Minnesota artists in the creative growth of our local youth.The 2013 Art Camp attendance, parent surveys and comments from campers serve as measurements for the camp's success.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Recruiting new and retaining past artists and classes is a goal of art camp. This year we had artists return to teach some of our most popular classes. New artists brought an exciting variety to class options.
