Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide access to participation in the arts for more Minnesotans through a number of public, accessible outreach activities with residency artists. Raise the quality, types and numbers in our region by facilitating opportunities for artists to create work while offering unprecedented arts experiences to southeast Minnesota. To measure the above outcomes, Lanesboro Arts will solicit verbal and written feedback from the artists involved in the residency as well as participants in the community outreach events. Data collection will also be used to record the number of participants and events.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Widespread publicity of the residencies and their different outreach components, and the unique nature of the outreach activities, drew in new audiences and arts participants. Each artist held several educational experiences for the public while they were in Lanesboro.
