Project Overview
The Vetted Programs were created by request of the SELCO public library directors. SELCO compiled a list of "Vetted Performers" who are contracted with SELCO to perform/present/etc. at our regional member libraries. This catalog is a valuable resource for SELCO's members and the Library Legacy funding allows programming to come to libraries that otherwise could not afford to have this rich variety of programs into their communities.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

To emphasize the importance of body art in your local community. To increase access to body art, enhancing audience comfort and confidence with unfamiliar artist styles. To encourage further education and attendance at future cultural and/or arts events. To reinforce the idea that libraries are places to experience cultural or arts programming.

Measurable Outcome(s)

This was a culturally diverse activity that was well received by people across age groups. During the interview of 5 participants, all would come to another program like this and wanted to learn more about the henna. All 5 would also come to a different program at the library. The participants rated the program very highly. They enjoyed learning about henna and the traditions in different cultures.
