ACHF Arts Access
More underserved youth will develop their creativity and potential through regular, stimulating music enrichment with accomplished artists. We will track number of youth served, contact hours between artists and youth, performance opportunities, audiences attending concerts. Outreach liaison will work with artists and schools to track number of people served. 2: Build relationships with youth serving organizations. We will measure the quantity and quality of partnerships, including the number of schools, number of nonprofits, surveys and focus groups of teachers, surveys and focus group of administrators, surveys and focus groups of nonprofit manager.
160 youth received 448 hours of musical instruction. We held five public performances and reached 1,850+ audience members. Each faculty artist assessed the individual growth of the youth on a weekly basis, including youth engagement in music lessons and concert performances. Teachers assess the musical skills of the youth based on posture, tone production, musicality, and extra-musical skills. We record attendance. Evaluation results help inform programming, marketing and fundraising and are used to make adjustments in order to achieve better results. 2: We offered the program at four Saint Paul Public Schools, working with school teachers and administrators. We regularly listen to input from students, partners, parents, and participants from target communities to shape what music we play, teach, and present and to effectively implement our programming. We know our work is successful in building relationships with groups traditionally underserved, for the Saint Paul School District has a formal commitment and contract with the Conservatory because we strategically align with their commitment to equal access and to eliminating institutional racism.
