ACHF Arts Access
The artists participating in the Art Tour will benefit from increased exposure and sales. Attendees will benefit from the opportunity to observe, ask questions, and learn from the participating artists in their studio environments. Attendees are encouraged to evaluate their experience on feedback forms provided at each location. To motivate attendees we use the forms for door prizes at each participating location. The survey forms give us information about the numbers of participants, along with their level of satisfaction.
This year attendance was same as last year, sales for artists remained about the same or down a bit. We are satisfied with this outcome given the current economic climate. This is the fifth year the proportion of attendees shifted to more local people and fewer from the Twin Cities.
