Arts Activities Support

We hope to achieve the following outcomes for 2014 Art-A-Whirl: At least 450 Northeast Minneapolis Arts Association artists participate; Maintained overall attendance compared to previous year, as reported by participating artist members; Maintained or increase in artwork sales compared to previous year, as reported by participating artist members; Maintain or increase of out-of-city (Minneapolis) visitors (35-50%); 65-80% of visitors plan to return to the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District throughout the year for events, etc.; 85-100% of visitors plan to return to Art-A-Whirl the following year.We will evaluate the event using electronic post-event surveys sent to attendees and artist participants. We will also compile reports provided by Northeast Minneapolis Arts Association board, staff, members, volunteers, and interns. Additionally, we will compile attendance reports and tally counts from several large Art-A-Whirl locations/buildings to get an estimate of attendance and compare to the previous year.
