Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
This will allow me to continue and advance the work I have been doing and share my passion with kids of all ages. It is my hope that my stories will inspire others to write and illustrate their own stories.I will have a guest book available to collect feedback. Local media will be invited and encouraged to review the event. I expect to be invited to do more shows of my work at schools.
Measurable Outcome(s)
My goal was to have a public showing of the process of producing an electronic book. The Paradise Center said about 1250 people saw the exhibit and although the actual cost was greater than I originally thought, it was quite successful.
