ACHF Arts Access
TU Dance will engage under-represented youth (ages 10-18) of color and/or from low-income families. Track demographics of students engaged in activities, including race, gender, age/grade, and economic status (free/reduced price lunch); assess school partnerships via surveys/conferences. 2: Economic barriers to participation are removed; perceptual barriers to dance are broken down and overcome. Track number of qualifying participants provided economic access, including attire and tickets; evaluate and document changes in student attitudes towards dance via pre and post surveys/meetings.
Subsidized program enrollment for 61 low-income youth (82% youth of color, ages 5-18, 80% female, 20% male) and engaged 1,680 in outreach activities. We tracked demographics of students enrolled via the Access grant subsidy, and counted the number reached through on-site classes and lecture-demonstrations via partner schools. We also tracked the number and diversity of Peer Ambassadors. We scheduled and tracked activities with school partners, as well as family/community events at TU Dance Center and other community sites. We surveyed students, parents/guardians, and classroom teachers. 2: Various economic barriers to participation were removed; perceptual barriers were addressed via outreach and peer-to-peer and family activities/events. Along with tracking those we engaged in free activities, we tracked subsidized programming, attire subsidies, transportation subsidies, and concert tickets provided for the youth from low-income families we served. We also surveyed students, parents/guardians, classroom teachers, and conducted regular evaluations of student performance and progress with TU Dance Center faculty.
