ACHF Arts Access
The number of Minnesotans who are able to participate in the arts increases. The quality and types of arts education and learning opportunities in our region, and the organizations or venues that offer them increases. We have a hand out survey for productions. This is managed by the Programming Committee. We base that on the PLRAC provided example. We have done 'live' show of hands surveys in smaller shows, such as the Valentine's show from two years ago, but now more often rely on a paper survey.
Yes, we achieved our planned outcomes. We used surveys and had a wonderful response to bringing a ballet performance to the community. We also learned that Facebook ads and online advertising stimulated interest and attendance at our events. We will be utilizing online advertising in the future.
