Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Approximately 1000 youth on the East Side of Saint Paul will have accessible art classes taught by seven professional artists. 75% have limited opportunities for summer art experiences. Written evaluations are completed by the lead artist, guest artists, intern and participants. Data is compiled in a report that is reviewed by ESAC and improvements are determined for the next year's program.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Daily log quotes from Artmobile participants expressed enthusiasm at learning a new art form. Artmobile offered 6 weeks of classes at 10 sites and 1 all-day Artmobile outdoor festival in East Saint Paul. 100% of the comments indicated positive experiences. Artmobile classes were taught by 7 professional artists and 922 youth attended.
