Arts Tour Minnesota
ACHF Arts Access
We Wait In The Darkness, a contemporary Native dance performance and gallery installation will be experienced by new Native and rural community audiences in four Minnesota communities, 2015-2016. Project outcome will be measured by audience attendance, comments and discussion feedback, demographic information gathered through surveys, panels, question and answer sessions, and one-on-one conversations among audiences, presenters, choreographer, and performers. 2: Simas will increase her visibility and value as a contemporary Native artist in four communities in Minnesota, and will strengthen her presence as an artistic force in the state's cultural milieu. Project success will be measured by audience attendance and comments; print, electronic, and social media reports and commentary in four communities; and, over time, expressions of interest in the work by presenters and audiences in other communities.
More Minnesotans had access to high quality arts opportunities when they attended an exhibit and performances produced by Rosy Simas Danse. Simas, artists, curators, staff and volunteers talked with audiences during the exhibits and after the shows. This was intentional to gather feedback on the impact of the work. Venues and Rosy Simas Danse kept track of the number of people at performances (through ticket sales) and at exhibits (through sign in sheets and counting people who entered the exhibit). 2: Minnesota artist Rosy Simas had more opportunities to tour her work in Minnesota.
