Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Our goal is very simple - to select eight artists to paint or design a wrap for the eight traffic signal boxes along First Street (the ninth one will be Laura Welle's art). We will know we have achieved our goal when we have eight beautiful, creative works of art ready to be put on the traffic signal boxes along First Street.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Our criteria for success was to have eight worthy submissions. We got nine, so we are pleased.
