Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The quality and types of arts learning opportunities in the state, and the organizations or venues that offer them increase through working with a watercolor artist. Evaluation occurs through a participant questionnaire, teacher evaluation, and a follow-up meeting with project planners.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Students and teachers all enjoyed this creative process. The teacher supervised three of the classes and painted herself, even purchasing watercolor paper for students to continue painting after the artist left. They were eager to continue painting.
