Addressing each of our three goals: Goal 1--Participation: We had strong participation, increasing throughout the program period from about 40 at the first rehearsal, to the last few averaging closer to 50. People were enthusiastic about being there, evidenced by them inviting other friends to attend, suggesting songs to sing, suggesting places where we might perform next year, asking to make a CD, asking ""Can I sing a solo on this song?"" These were all frequent observations. And new relationships were and continue to be made. One member said, ""This is the only place where I can make an actual friendship with someone with a disability, and I'm not seen as the helper, or support staff, or authority. We're just equals having fun. So we look forward to seeing each other and singing together. Goal 2--Lifting up Advocating Change Together's vision: The People's Chorus successfully spread the mission of disability equality in both our performances and our rehearsals. We educated and empowered our members and audience through the words of the songs. We also lifted up the mission of community integration by modeling it in who we are as an integrated arts group performing. For example, at a December performance, one audience member said, ""I've been coming to performances at Hamline for 25 years, and this is the most powerful thing I’ve ever seen."" Through our singing songs of power and liberation, as an integrated group that includes people with intellectual disabilities, the People's Chorus is displaying power and pride and ""ordinary person-ness."" Goal 3--Building leaders: Twenty seven (27) people with disabilities played leadership roles: 17 sang a solo or lead a call response song, 4 served as welcomers to greet members as they arrive, 14 spoke up to offer ideas for how to perform a song, how to do it better, how to make rehearsals run more smoothly. Yes, we successfully reached our intended community of adults with developmental disabilities and their allies without disabilities. IN this now our second year, we are noticing how important this singing opportunity is for the core members. They look forward to it. They look forward to singing, they look forward to seeing other members. This is truly an open and integrated arts group. We do have the challenge of getting equal participation numbers from people without disabilities. (See Project Changes, below). As for promoting community diversity: We were the first disability group to participate in Hamline's theater for social justice day, which brought a new diversity to that annual arts/theater event. We were also the first developmental disability group to perform at the Macalester Plymouth Church's Sunday service. [Note: this is the organization at whose building we meet and rehearse.] They invited us to present at their Sunday service as a relationship-building opportunity between them and us. After the service, their music director asked if we could host a joint rehearsal with their choir and ours. We were successful in making this an open accessible artistic opportunity. About 25 % of members arrive using metro mobility or city bus. 5 members use wheelchairs and were able to fully participate, as the venues of rehearsal and performance, and the methods included them fully. Indeed, two members who use motorized chairs for movement and use synthetic speech devices to ""talk"" actually were the song leaders for a call response song called ""We Are the Ones."" It is a song in a call/echo format, where the leader sings a line, everyone echoes it back, continuing back and forth. Having this type of leadership at a public singing performance is truly transformative for everyone, audience and chorus members. It's a rare opportunity to experience total and never before experienced equality and shared humanity--without the sympathy and pity so often sullying any attempt to create peer connections between people with disabilities and their friends and allies and general public. Singing and participatory art is a perfect format for helping this happen.",,7680,"Other,local or private",17680,,"Doug Angier, David Belcourt, Denise Cady, Gordon Crawford, Ron Erickson, Angelina Johnson, Jenny Johnson, John Kerrigan, Kelly Lee, Larry Lubbers, Peggy Mehan, Steve Mono, Carrie O'Keefe, Carol Robinson, Larry Smith, Manny Steinman",0.00,"Advocating Change Together","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Self-Advocacy Singing Group",2016-07-01,2017-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Bret,Hesla,"Advocating Change Together","1821 University Ave W Ste 306S","St Paul",MN,55104-4533,"(651) 641-0297 ",act@selfadvocacy.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-934,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004716,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Alive and Kickin will serve 29 singers who will perform across the Twin Cities reaching 5,000 audience members in 2016-2017 with a focus on access to individuals with disabilities and/or financial needs.","21 Community Gigs were performed across the metro with the following results: 100% of the presenters indicated our staff were timely and were prepared, that performers/staff were respectful, the performance was Excellent, very inspiring, and that they would recommend the show to others. 87% stated the performance was better than expected.

Our aim was to create a safe space for the kids to explore the basic structures and challenges in the kids’ live. The stories they chose to tell addressed family, being an immigrant, overcoming racism and islamophobia, and their desire to good students. When Average Mohamed began this project, we set out the following goals: Short-term: serving 15 students, teaching the required skills, producing videos within schedule and budget, creating an experience which empowered the students. Long-term: Connecting with the broader audience, encourage dialogue within the Muslim community as well as externally. We feel that we met the short-term goals in that we had a group of approximately 20 regular participants. They met each Saturday for six months, and learned how to create a message, write a script, provide constructive criticism, create story boards, record voice-overs, and edit their cartoons. The five videos focused on Family, Islamophobia and Racism, School, Soccer Star, and Being a new Immigrant. There were several things that did not go as planned, the most significant of which was that the Young Achievers group backed out due to scheduling conflicts. This left us scrambling to find another group of kids with which to work. Fortunately, we were able to connect with a group from West Bank Athletics that fit the same demographic of teenagers from the Somali community. We did have to readjust as the language skills of this group were a bit different from what we had anticipated. Several participants had only been in the U.S. for a short period of time and were uncomfortable communicating in English. This group was also coming directly from a soccer practice, and were always famished. We soon learned that providing food for them made the sessions much more productive. This was also a transient group, with many students changing housing locations 3-4 times within the six month period. They were all enthusiastic about participating, but transportation was often an obstacle. The director of Average Mohamed often ended up providing transportation for the participants. Although most of the project went as planned, there are a number of things we would do differently the next time around, the most important of which is shortening the duration. Originally we had planned for one-hour sessions to meet once a week for six months. In hindsight, it would have been better to do two-hour sessions for three months. One hour was simply not enough time to go into depth and it often seemed as if we would have to wrap just when the conversation was getting interesting. Since the sessions ended in June, the unveiling of the videos coincided with the month of Ramadan, which was less than ideal. Our release party was not as well attended as we would have liked since many of the families were fasting and often do not go out during the day. The surveys we conducted at the end of the project indicated that the participants felt empowered by the project, and the feedback was overwhelming positive. Some felt that we spent too much time talking about the challenges they faced, and not enough time talking about solutions, so that is one thing we will try to incorporate in future programs. In our proposal we defined the community we wished to serve as kids, ages 8-14, from the Somali community. The group we worked with was slightly older, 12-18, due the switch from Young Achievers to the West Bank Athletics group. The greatest obstacles to participation were language, the fact that the kids were hungry and had a hard time focusing, and the fact that the kids lacked transportation. These obstacles were overcome by having the instructor translate into Somali, providing food during the sessions, and providing rides to and from the sessions. The group discussed issues ranging from family, the challenges of being new immigrants, their experience with racism and islamophobia, and about their dreams and ambitions. More of the classes were conducted in Somali than we anticipated, and the language issues created more challenges in recording the voice-overs than expected, but we were able to work with the recording studio to bargain for some extra time. We would love to be able to offer the program to a larger group of kids, but keeping the class size relatively small was crucial to keeping a manageable dialogue where the participants had an opportunity to share their ideas. We would often break into small groups, and a larger class size would have been difficult to manage. We were able to reach a broader audience by hosting a public event to launch the videos and by posting our videos online. MPR did a short story on the creation of the videos and the community event, which brought out quite a few people to the launch party that might not have otherwise attended. For many of the participants, this was the first time they had ever been involved in this type of discussion. This experience provided an opportunity in which the students could voice their frustrations in a safe space, develop language and public speaking skills without fear of failure, have an open discussion with one another, and frame the conversation around their own thoughts and ideas, rather than in response to community events. We were able to make the project open and accessible to all who wished to participate. In the future, we will plan more resources for language translation.",,,,10000,,"Mohamed Ahmed, Farhiya Farah, Maren Christenson Hofer, Peter Krug, Christine Skovira",,"Average Mohamed","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Average Mohamed Youth Cartoon Project",2016-07-01,2017-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Mohamed,Ahmed,"Average Mohamed","5209 Humboldt Ave N",Minneapolis,MN,55430,"(612) 310-2843 ",mohamedamin_1@hotmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-936,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004718,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access",,"We had 240 total artists (73% of cast and crew) including 22 contractors and 218 volunteers who worked in various visual and/or performing arts roles. Volunteer artists included 126 adult visual artists and 69 adult performing artists, plus 6 youth (age 13-18) and 17 children (age 12 and under), representing 8 visual and 15 performing artists. Of the 22 artistic contractors, 15 also performed. Our project, entitled ""You Were Once Wild Here,” was a thrillingly beautiful show that largely achieved our proposed artistic goals, with several key challenges. Though we didn't quite hit the 350+ total participants as proposed, we did have 330, including a cast of 99 (total performers) and a crew of 231 (total non-performers). These included 52 contractors (16%) and 278 volunteers (84%). Volunteers included 7 youth (3 performers) and 17 children (12 performers) – the youngest age four. Among all participants, 90 were mainly in non-artistic roles (27%), and 240 were mainly in visual or performing artistic roles (73%), with some in each. It would have been our first time staging six shows, but our second weekend Saturday show (which normally attracts our largest audience) rained out so that we only staged five. The rain-out was our first since 2009, third since 2005, and only the second we couldn't make up. Performers included 17 musicians compared to “dozens” proposed, but 82 main stage performers compared to “85+”, some of whom had multiple performing roles. These included 59 puppeteers/dancers, 21 fire performers (with 15 safety spotters) including, for the first time, two fire acrobats, as well as 10 stilters, 9 ritual performance artists, and 8 bike puppeteers. We did not have aerialists as proposed, included since 2010, due to our inability to attract a lead aerialist willing to perform in late October temperatures. We had two notable challenges involving staffing and artistic directorship. First, contractor staffing was delayed by two months and didn't start until July, so that artistic staff were not hired until after August 1st, our goal for it to have been done. This caused a cascade of delays. For example, the Staff Orientation scheduled for August 14th was not held until September 12th. Probably because some contractors were not in place for the Storyboard Process, there was no storyboard to present at the Community Kickoff on September 13th. Likely owing to delayed story boarding, we had an average run-time of 89 minutes, well past the target ideal run-time of 60 minutes that we defined in 2012, which probably lead to significant audience walk-offs on the two nights with the largest attendance. Second, staffing became rushed. We eventually hired a solo Artistic Director for the first time (instead of two Artistic Co-Directors) who, in spite of being an experienced stage director, didn't have experience directing puppetry arts or working on our production. This resulted in two serious directorial challenges, a shortfall in the capacity for attention and communication at outdoor rehearsals, and a clash of leadership style with veteran contractors and volunteers fraught with perceived communication and respect issues. The Board has since established staffing policies that favor Artistic Co-Director applicant pairs, and require any solo Artistic Director applicants to have had prior experience on the production. We had volunteer participation generally as proposed. After our volunteer count hit 250 in 2012 and 300 in 2015, it was down slightly at 278. We recruited mainly with MailChimp and Facebook, and our Volunteer Coordinator used SignUp.com for the first time to promote volunteer opportunities and schedule and remind volunteers. We again faced perennial challenges to fill some of the non-artistic volunteer roles in audience services. As late as four days before opening night, for example, urgent appeals were being sent to e-mail networks for Parking Hands and Ushers on opening weekend. For the seventh year running (since going to five shows), we had a total audience of 6,100+, down somewhat compared to the prior three years. Our shows drew an average nightly audience of 1,341 and a total audience of 6,704. This was down 1,244 (16%) from our average total audience of 7,948 for 2013-15, and was closer to our average total audience of 6,395 for 2010-12. Attendance was, in fact, extremely similar to our 2011 production, the last time Halloween fell on a Monday, which also featured a run starting on October 22nd and a very similar schedule of SA/SU + SA/SU/MO compared to FR/SA/SU/MO in 2016. After setting both opening night and weekend attendance records for the last two years, and in spite of ideal weather, opening weekend attendance of 2,081 was down 927 (31%) from the three-year average of 3,008 for 2013-15, and was very close to the 2011 total of 1,941. Reasons for lower opening weekend and overall attendance are complex. There could be a socio-cultural factor surrounding a Monday night Halloween. Besides weather, key factors influencing past attendance have likely included how early before opening weekend we issued a press release, and the amount of print, broadcast, and online media coverage the show received prior to opening weekend. In 2016, our press release went out one day past our latest date target of three Wednesdays before opening night. For the first time in recent memory, our performances received no staff interviews, feature articles, or reviews from any of the major Twin Cities mainstream or alternative news media that have covered us in the past, including Star Tribune, Pioneer Press, TPT, Fox 9, MPR, Minnesota Monthly, City Pages, and Unicorn Riot. In addition, upon the request of City of St Paul, we intentionally limited our largest two audiences to 1,800 and 1,900 by additional staffing and “at capacity” announcements at the park entrance, to significantly reduce 2,000+ bubble audiences as occurred in 2013-15. In terms of ADA accessibility, during our run 33 cars used reserved accessible parking, 116 audience used reserved accessible seating, 7 audience used ASL services, and, for the first time since we began offering Audio Description in 2011, 2 audience used AD services. We counted 515 bikes on our racks at performances representing generally 7-10% of our audience nightly and 8% of our audience overall.",,56457,"Other,local or private",66457,,"Jan Elftmann, Scottie Hall, Joel Swearingen, Heather Hinrichsen, Jeff Adams, Tom Carlson, Angie Courchaine, Dan Polsfuss, Peter Schulze",0.00,"Barebones Productions AKA Barebones Puppets","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"23rd Annual Halloween Outdoor Puppet Extravaganza",2016-07-01,2016-11-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Brent,Harring,"Barebones Productions AKA Barebones Puppets","PO Box 7246",Minneapolis,MN,55407,"(612) 374-9103 ",puppets@barebonespuppets.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-937,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004719,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Twenty-four classical music ensembles will participate in the project.

Audience feedback showed that the audience enjoyed the performances, and felt closer and more connected to the music through personal contact with musicians. The Artistic Goals of this project, as defined in our narrative were: 1. Present intimate concerts to connect with audiences in meaningful ways. 2. Challenge ourselves with demanding repertoire that is both technically and emotionally satisfying. 3. Expose audiences to significant masterworks of the Baroque era. 4. Promote and educate audiences about Historically Informed Performance. We believe that we achieved these goals. Addressing our 1st goal, we performed our concerts in The Baroque Room, an intimate chamber music space designed acoustically for baroque music. There is seating for 60 people, but it feels full with as few as 20 people in the audience. They are seated on the same plane as we are, and the front row is 5 feet away from the nearest player. This small space allowed us to have a direct connection to the audience with our performances, removing the barrier between performer and listener. We know that this was true for our audience because they would sometimes ask us questions between pieces, and were open in their emotional involvement in the music. Their reactions affected us directly as players, and we responded musically in turn. We felt that we had an exchange with our audience which was very fulfilling emotionally. Addressing our 2nd goal, we certainly challenged ourselves with our choice of repertoire! Concert I was challenging to Marc Levine, our violinist, who played as a soloist alongside his teacher Marc Destrubé. Concert II was programmatically challenging. ""A Baroque Christmas"" is a program we do every year, but we pick different music. This year included technically challenging music, especially for Tulio Rondón (viola da gamba), such as Marin Marais's La Sonnerie and a Telemann Paris Quartet. This program also included colonial fiddle tunes that Marc Levine (violin) improvised upon. Concert III was especially challenging for Tami Morse (harpsichord). She performed 12 sonatas in 3 days, of some of the most difficult music for harpsichord. It was a marathon for her especially! Concert IV was a challenge to Tulio Rondón (cello), as he played cello sonatas alongside his colleague and our guest Beiliang Zhu. It was a satisfying season for all of us! Addressing our 3rd goal, we exposed our audience to Baroque standards such as the JS Bach double violin concerto, the JS Bach f minor harpsichord concerto, and music by JS Bach that one might not necessarily hear, such as all the violin and gamba sonatas in 3 days. We programmed music by lesser known composers such as Avison, Muffat, Becker, and Barrière. Addressing our 4th goal, we spoke at every concert about historical performance practice, our instruments, and the repertoire. The greatest challenge we all had was learning so much music at a high level. Three back-to-back days of Bach sonatas, for example, was extremely difficult, since all 12 needed to be learned and maintained at the same time. In the future, we would spread a project like this out over the season. We successfully reached our intended community of musicians and audience members. Our audience was diverse in that there was a wide range of ages attending, including children and grandparents. Our ticket prices are not too high ($20 adult/$15 senior and student), and we made an effort to give out complimentary tickets to people we know that would not be able to attend otherwise. In terms of ethnic diversity, there were Chinese and Canadian musicians, and two of our core members are Venezuelan and mixed-race Japanese American. Approximately 10% of our audience was made up of minority ethnicities. As a group, we have discussed how to have a more diverse audience. We are thinking about a number of solutions such as performing in different locations and handing out comp tickets to minority communities. Next season we are MPR class notes artists, and will be performing for mostly elementary-aged children. We are happy that we will be exposing younger people to baroque music, and hope to encourage the most enthusiastic to attend our concerts in the future. Our concerts were all open to the public and handicapped accessible. Our flexible seating allowed us to put people in wheelchairs right up front, or on the end of a row. We made an extra effort to make everyone in our audience comfortable, and they seemed to appreciate it. All in all, we served the community that we expected we would, and are brainstorming about how to expand that community to be more diverse in the future.",,14975,"Other,local or private",24975,,"Marc Levine, Tami Morse, Judy Gilats, Andy Wilson, Maria Jette, Beth Wenstrom, Johanna Novom, Nissim Schaul",0.00,"Flying Forms","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Flying Forms 2016-17 Concert Series",2016-11-12,2017-04-22,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Marc,Levine,"Flying Forms","275 4th St E Ste 280","St Paul",MN,55101,"(651) 705-6772 ",info@flyingforms.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-939,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004721,"Arts Activities Support",2016,8000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access",,"We have grown to a choir of 160 members, averaging 42-43 members for each rehearsal.

Our outreach to people who live in poverty and are homeless has increased our membership with a carload of men from Harbor Lights joining our choir, and a group from Alliance and Emanuel Housing. We performed at a Twins Game, at the Guthrie, at the MacPhail Music Matters Luncheon, at the Concert Across America to End Gun Violence, at the Capri Theater, at the Skyway Senior Center, and caroled throughout the Mill District at Winterfest. Our mission is to sing songs of hope and unity, and we do that, and while audiences seem to respond with enthusiasm, the real changes are in our community of singers. The most effective part of our year was the formation of a community. We begin rehearsals with hugs and end with hugs. Everyone is welcome and everyone is greeted. It started as my role, but quickly expanded to include everyone. Several women from Alliance self-designated themselves as the organizers, and they are. They come early, help set up chairs, and then make sure everyone who walks in is welcomed and hugged. We also hold an 'end of session' potluck at a nearby condo. That has become something to anticipate and, again, has been taken over by the group. There truly is no group leader, other than JD when we sing! The model we found is working! We are passionate about our group. There was a 3 month hiatus planned for January-March of this year, and there was so much discussion about THREE months being too long, that we found the money to add in March rehearsals. We want to bring in neighbors from the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood. That has not been successful up to this point. It would be a major point of effort if we are allowed to repeat this grant. Expanding our rehearsals from 24 to 30 is a major new goal. In our grant proposal, we suggested that we would ‘solicit audience opinions about their enjoyment of performances via short questionnaires about our stated artistic and community goals.’ While we did not use questionnaires, we did solicit opinions. The questionnaires became logistically problematic, so we decided to ‘spread out’ after performances and solicit opinions from audience members verbally and report back to the choir about the remarks. The majority of comments were about the magic of JD Steele, the diversity of the singers, and the enthusiasm and passion with which we sang. We performed in very different venues to very different audiences, ranging from the Guthrie Theater, the MacPhail Music Matters Luncheon, at the Concert Across American to End Violence, Winterfest on 2nd Avenue in the Mill District, to singing ‘Take Me out to the Ballgame’ during the 7th Inning stretch at a Minnesota Twins game. It is difficult to imagine a more diverse range of venues, although we are determined to add audiences next year. Our goals were met in ways we couldn’t have imagined, and we far surpassed anything we were able to imagine. Our intention to do outreach to diverse communities was accomplished, but we are clear there is much more work to be done. We did not perform in the Cedar Riverside community and are already in discussion to do so next year. It is a slow process as we discovered. Gaining entre demands gaining trust and that is done by ‘showing up’ which is exactly what a group of us has begun doing, and we are confident that next year we will accomplish this goal. We ended this season with 160 members on our roster. The average attendance at rehearsals seems to have ‘settled’ at 42-43 singers. We have carloads of men from Harbor Lights attending, people from Alliance Apartments and Emanuel Housing, as well as many members from the Mill District condominiums, as well as members from condos in the St Anthony neighborhood. There is even a ‘friend’ who drives from North Branch to sing with us. While our outreach has been incredibly successful, we are just getting started!",,4000,"Other,local or private",12000,,"Claudia Evarts-Kittock, Cynthia Froid, Ken Searl, David Tinjum",0.00,"Friends of the Mill District","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Mill City Emanuel Singers",2016-06-04,2017-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Claudia,Kittock,"Friends of the Mill District","212 10th Ave S Apt 102",Minneapolis,MN,55415,"(763) 913-7469 ",cjkittock@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-940,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004722,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access",,"This four concert, free-will offering program, showcased twenty-one artists touching the lives of 260 attendees. 92% of participants valued the performance with the remaining 8% indicated that time of day was not the most convenient. Free-will offerings increased 50 % in comparison to last year. The Bauman Fine Arts Concert Series consisted of four concerts during the 2016-2017 season. These concerts showcased interdisciplinary experiences, world class professional musicians, award winning dancers and amateur artists including a children’s choir and dance troupe from the Twin Cities. Overall, this project proved to be creative, educational, artistic, and spiritual for both the performers and audience. The first two concerts, “Love and Death at Harvest Time” and “O Holy Night” were held at Hazel Park Congregational United Church of Christ. The acoustics enhanced the sound to a high quality giving the listeners an intimate insight to what the musicians hope to hear as they produce the sound. The drawback to this concert space is the positioning of the musicians. Due to a faulty architectural design, the soloists are separated from the piano/harpsichord making this an added challenge to communicate while performing. In order for future performances to take place in this setting, significant thought is needed for proper positioning of musicians. “O Holy Night” shared the stage with professional musicians and a children’s choir. The children got the opportunity to hear and experience professional musicians in their neighborhood. Though both of these concerts were family-oriented, we recognized two things: 1) “Love and Death at Harvest Time” needed more relatable music for the younger audience to truly make it family-oriented and 2) in the “O Holy Night” concert, we needed to build a better relationship between the soloist and the children’s choir, so it did not feel like two separate entities coming together for one concert. The third concert, “World Music in Motion” was a beautiful display of dance and music at the Steeple Center in Rosemount, Minnesota. The music seemed as though it was written for the dance and the choreography was shaped to each note. The stage at the Steeple Center was beautiful and yet two things were noticed: 1) the musicians were so far to the back of the stage to make room for the dancers that it was hard to hear at times; 2) this concert really focused on the performance more than the educational component. More interaction with the audience may have been elicited if more explanation of the style of music in conjunction with the kind of dance was more fully articulated. The fourth concert, “New Music” was a milestone of professionalism as Asako Hirabayashi premiered her new work, “Espressivo-Siciliano-Vivace,” trio for oboe, bassoon, and piano. It was a high caliber performance showcasing musicians from the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and the Minnesota Orchestra. The concert was held at Parkway United Church of Christ and the acoustics made the music soar giving the attendees an opportunity to engage this kind of music outside the walls of Orchestra Hall. The only drawback to this concert was the lack of a stage manager which would have facilitated smoother transitions between music selections. The Bauman Fine Arts Series reached a new level of artistic involvement by the individuals who performed in this 2016-2017 program. The multidisciplinary projects gave artists an opportunity to work together in ways they may not have otherwise. The assortment of styles and techniques made the work both professionally engaging and challenging. The Bauman Fine Arts Series reached our intended audience; however, not to its fullest potential. Our average attendance was 65 individuals. Attendees were women, men, gender non-conforming, young, old, different abilities, races, ethnicities, and religious affiliations. Our largest attendees were white, which leads to our main question, how do we better engage the diversity in our neighborhood? Is it through the music performance, is it through the educational component? Our completed surveys indicated that individuals appreciated the repertoire presented; however, this was answered by a majority white audience. Many of our regular concert goers did not attend “World Music in Motion” at the Steeple Center. Even though this was a professional stage, our attendees did not want to travel to a third ring suburb of the Twin Cities. Also, it was noticed that even with substantial advertising in the Rosemount area, we did not see a significant number of new concert attendees. If we choose to have another concert in this venue, more advertising research is needed. Our final concert, “New Music” in North Minneapolis was an example of true collaboration between two organizations with established concert series. This concert also featured highly acclaimed musicians who bring a following of their own. With that said, attendance was diverse and new attendees were present. Our work with the Bauman Fine Arts Series has to be more strategic in collaborating with other organizations within the Eastside St Paul neighborhood as well as other targeted organizations in the Metro area in order to get the word out more fully. The publicity schedule that was outlined in the grant proposal was completed and yet, we are finding that building relationships with specific organizations will prove more beneficial in the future for advertising and community involvement.",,,,10000,,"Sara Morse, Asako Hirabayashi, Julie Kovacs, Sara Mensen, Andrea Marshall, Clea Galhano, Margaret Humphrey, Momoko Tanno",,"Hazel Park United Church of Christ","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Bauman Fine Arts Series 2016-2017",2017-06-30,2017-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Sara,Morse,"Hazel Park United Church of Christ","1831 Minnehaha Ave E","St Paul",MN,55119,"(651) 735-2555 ",hirabayashi.asako@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Hennepin, Dakota, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-941,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004723,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","The goal of the project is to offer 30 to 35 concerts at Hosmer Library, with the concerts taking place on Saturdays at 2:00 pm and 3 to 5 outdoor concerts at Painter Park and other neighborhood sites, which will take place in evenings with at least 1,600 people in attendance.

Approximately 60% of our audience stayed for post-concert receptions, interacting positively with Lyra's musicians and building relationships. Audience surveys yielded a surprisingly high 45% average response rate, and with the exception of two, responses were thoughtful, effusive, and positive. GOALS: 1. Rediscovery and reinterpretation of popular and seldom-heard early music that is beautiful and powerful: This season included popular works such as Telemann’s Tafelmusik and Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos, as well as repertoire by less familiar composers like Georg Muffat and Carl Heinrich Graun. One highlight was exploring Der Tod Jesu (The Death of Christ) by Graun with Grinnell Singers. A wonderful piece that was beloved in its day, the Lyra performance was the North American premiere. 2. The potential of the music and musicians to communicate with the audience: This season Lyra’s Artistic Director Jacques Ogg began a series of well received pre-concert talks, to share information about the music, the composers, and his reasons for choosing them. Audience members were invited to mingle with musicians at post-concert receptions, staying as long as an hour after the concert to get to know each other and discuss the concert they just shared. 3. The potential of the program to educate the audience in musical and cultural understanding: Lyra’s Artistic Director wrote this season’s program notes. An engaging and approachable writer, he is also exceptionally knowledgeable. The pre-concert talks and post-concert receptions encouraged open exchange of ideas and questions between musicians, audience members, and Lyra board/administrators. 4. The music’s technical and intellectual challenges for the performers: Many musicians said that the concert of Brandenburg Concertos was both one of the most challenging and most musically satisfying experiences they’d ever had. It's rare to perform all six concertos on the same concert, and doing so on period instruments increases both the difficulty and the satisfaction. The March concert, with full orchestra, soloists, and chorus, was not only one of the most technically challenging concerts of the season but also featured unfamiliar repertoire. By the end of the project, people were in love with the piece and looking eagerly ahead to the next chance to work together. 5. Distinctiveness and personality of themes, lending themselves to effective audience building: Each concert featured a different theme and collection of sounds. For example, the first concert featured all instruments in different combinations, as laid out by Telemann for his “Table Music” vignettes. January celebrated Telemann and all of his connections, with rich strings, and outstanding emerging artists on harpsichord and flute. Overall, we were quite successful in working toward these goals. Jacques’s programming is always engaging, and this season brought in a lot of new audience members. One area on which we could have focused more is educating the audience in musical and cultural understanding. While our concert experience is informative and welcoming, we can do better at making more information about the music and instruments we play available online so that people arrive at concerts with greater basic understanding of baroque music. Lyra successfully reached our intended community this year, which included early music lovers as young as two years old, senior citizens, and everyone between. In terms of numbers, we averaged 252 people per concert, shattering expectations and our goal of 210. Students made up around 10% of that total. We are always exploring new ways to bring in more students, both to encourage the next generation of musicians and music lovers and also because of the special vibrancy of a multi-generation audience. Lyra’s concerts are economically accessible to the community through low prices for students ($10/ticket), and our policy of giving out many complimentary tickets to families, low-income fans, and anyone else who requests them. This year around 60 people received comp tickets for our Sundin Hall concerts. We also offer volunteer opportunities for those who would like to exchange their time for concert tickets, resulting in an additional 5-10 people per concert attending for free. One of the reasons we chose Sundin Hall for our performances is its convenient parking and easy entry, and we give early entrance through a side door to our patrons with special needs. This includes one blind woman, and a number of people in wheelchairs. Promoting cultural and ethnic diversity is a challenge, which is unsurprising considering that classical music audiences in the region are overwhelmingly white. We have had the most luck reaching diverse audiences through our school outreach programs, and we continue to explore new ways to encourage and welcome a culturally diverse audience at our programs. Our community of musicians is as diverse as it can be within the Twin Cities region. Just about every professional early music specialist in town is hired by Lyra at some point in the season. Lyra is unusual in that the majority of its musicians are women. The LGBT community is represented including gay and transgender players. Ethnically Lyra is mainly white, but includes players from Brazil and Venezuela.",,44590,"Other,local or private",54590,,"Ellen Rider, Bonnie Turpin, Nancy Levine, Margaret Sullivan, Joan Rabe, Elizabeth York",0.00,"Lyra, Inc.

As predicted, the festival was also able to provide a platform to 30 Arab and Arab American filmmakers, not to mention the cast and crew involved with the films. The festival also attracted 1,500 audience members, and increase of 25% over the previous year's festival. Our main goal was to successfully produce the 11th edition of our Twin Cities Film Festival. Within that, we sought to be a platform for Arab/Arab American/Muslim filmmakers of both emerging and established status to share their work, authentically representing real Arab experiences and countering current stereotypical and harmful representations of our communities circulating through popular media and politics. Through this, we also sought to give Minnesotan audiences a complex, real encounter with the Arab world and Arab diaspora through film. We sought to increase and diversify that audience, and therefore in-crease our revenue with an eye toward sustainability of this program. We did indeed achieve our goals—the 2016 Twin Cities Arab Film Festival was successfully presented by Mizna at Saint Anthony Main Theater September 29 through October 2. We showed 14 feature length films and 16 shorts, including a set of local Iraqi emerging filmmakers’ shorts in conjunction with the Iraqi and American Reconciliation Project and, for the first time, a special free high school screening with partner schools/teachers. We also had an opening party at Pracna. The 2016 Twin Cities Arab Film Festival box office numbers grew by 25%. The special free high school screening brought in a new population of youth to our festival for a film about the contemporary music scene in four Arab countries, with a post-show discussion with local Arab and Muslim artists. Regarding what did not work, we had a large group of high school students who were coming for a school-day matinee cancel at the last minute because of a mix-up with their transportation that their teachers did not anticipate. Although did have a theater half-full of high school students, we had expected to be completely full. What we will do differently is to di-versify the locations that students are coming from, and to sign an agreement with schools or teachers so that there is a commitment to follow through with bringing students for this special opportunity, understanding that there may be unforeseen circumstances. The community identified in this proposal is the Twin Cities Arab and Muslim community. This community is critical for Mizna; we strive to serve it and to be an outlet for the vital voices it represents. We did successfully reach the intended community, in that the numbers in our survey results point to 40% of our audience identifying as Arab or Muslim. While we did reach the audience we intended, generally, we have noticed that we don’t often have first generation immigrants attending our film festival, and that was the case this year. There may be a continued perception among relatively new immigrants, or for community members who are relatively new to the US that our film festival is too racy or esoteric. We are committed to reaching out at community events like Palestine Day, Egyptian American Society of Minnesota’s annual picnic, and the Maronite Church’s Lebanese Festival to spread the word about the festival. We also are working to seek children’s films or current cartoons that are popular in the Middle East to be screened at our festival for Family Screenings. We met our accessibility goals in that our ticket prices did not increase, we continued to offer student and senior ticket prices. We advertised the accommodations of large-print materials and translation more than two weeks before the festival. We also offered for the first time a free student screening.

This year there some artists had expectations that were not a good fit with the project, and so for the coming year I will create an Artists' Information document so that each artist applying understands the capacity of the project. This year there were way too many comp tickets given, due to the fact that I was offering comps on a more informal basis than I probably should have.

Unfortunately, there isn't the budget to do more marketing than I am already able to do. There was artistic diversity, in both the artists chosen and the audiences who came. However, too often the audience for one artist would leave prior to the performance of the second artist. This is because I have set up the program to be ""a la carte"", hoping audiences would stay for both shows. Next year I will schedule the performances to prohibit audiences leaving after the 1st performance. I approached a number of people to be the Diversity panelist, and literally no one accepted the offer. The individuals I contacted either turned down the offer, or didn't respond at all. I'm not sure what to do about this, except to keep trying to connect with non-white artists to find someone willing to take on this role. I did make efforts to make the program accessible, advertising accessible options through social media, website, and printed materials.",,5000,"Other,local or private",15000,,"Paul Herwig, Scott Mayer, Leah Cooper, Craig Harris, Deborah Jinza Thayer",0.00,"Right Here Commissions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Right Here Commissions presents the 3rd Annual Right Here Showcase",2016-07-01,2017-05-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Paul,Herwig,"Right Here Commissions","308 Prince St Ste 270","St Paul",MN,55101,"(612) 724-7372 ",offleash@offleasharea.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-946,"Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 10004728,"Arts Activities Support",2016,9773,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Engage twelve artists to curate exhibits throughout 2017, increase the SMSP audience by 10% as indicated by social media and artist reception attendance, and launch the SMSP gift shop for earned income funding.

Qualitative: Untitled will lead to 85% of the participating artists securing additional opportunities as a direct result of exhibiting their work in Untitled. We feel that in many ways Untitled 13 exceeded our goals, thanks to our funding from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council’s arts activities grant we were able to fulfill our objectives in the following ways: Internationally known curators, Dean Otto and Astria Suparak selected 16 artists out of 184 submissions. The culminating exhibition had a wide range of artistic approaches site-specific light activated installation, a video and audio work, large scale paintings, mixed media, photography and sculpture, that all came together in a harmonious and thought-provoking way. Dean Otto and Astria Suparak deliberated extensively about how the pieces would work in the space, in the final meeting Dean Otto was able to come to the space in person while Astria Skyped in and they made final decisions about the participating artists and the placement of the work. Rik Sferra, professor of media arts at Minneapolis College of Art and Design and accomplished photographer, documented the work for each of the artists so they have high quality images for their portfolios. Artists were provided with shipping and transportation stipends based on need. Each of the artists received feedback and assistance on their artist statements and special installation needs for their work from Executive Director, Carolyn Payne and Associate Director, Alison Hiltner. Untitled 13 also had an exhibition catalog that included information about and images of all the participating artists work, an essay by Astria Suparak, a history of the Untitled exhibition series, and a dedication to Craig Seacotte. After over sixteen years of programming, SooVAC remains committed to supporting local artists and exposing many traditionally under-served groups to contemporary art. We provide an environment that appeals to visitors who are aware of issues within contemporary art (artists, art historians, curators, collectors) and those who are not (children, passers-by, and neighbors). Strengthening our connection to community is a priority of SooVAC and Untitled is a prime opportunity for supplemental programming and outreach. Several of the artists exhibiting in this year’s Untitled have had few if any exhibitions in a professional art space, providing them not only with a setting for their work that compliments and spotlights the final piece but also bringing them plenty of exposure through the public, potential collectors, and the press. We created the opportunity for new audiences to be introduced to artists in Untitled by holding an event for Kill Kancer, a local nonprofit that brought in an audience of 200 people. And SooVAC also held a book launch for Stefanie Motta’s Water Line, 25% of all book sales was donated to Clean Water Action by the artist. Both of these events brought in new attendees to the space and exhibition. It is imperative to the success of the Untitled series that we have a large applicant pool, allowing the guest jurors to choose from a richly diverse group of artists. We have a very minimal fee of $15 fee and for those that could not pay we waived this fee for several of the applicants. Lifting this socio-economic barrier is a very important step to expanding our submission pool and ensuring this opportunity is available to everyone. Coinciding with the Untitled 13 exhibition was Side Effects May Include: New Work by Chelsea Reeck. Chelsea was selected to exhibit by Payne and Hiltner through an open call to all Minneapolis College of Art and Design Masters in Fine Art candidates, 2017 marks the 15th year of SooVAC exhibiting work by Minneapolis College of Art and Design graduate students. We actively assisted any artists that needed guidance preparing their application to ensure anyone who wanted to apply could create a successful submission, this included walking some artists through the process step by step in person or over the phone. We also did not enforce the submission fee all applications were accepted. And in an effort to increase the diversity of the artists applying and selected, we always reach out to past jurors, non-metro art organizations, other twin cities non-profits and post announcements with both local and national institutions of learning. Our diversity efforts are at the fore front of planning the Untitled exhibition series and includes ever evolving methods to reach as many communities as possible, at the fore front of this is insuring we have diverse jurors. This year’s jurors Dean Otto, currently Curator of Film at the Speed Art Museum and was previously Associate Curator of Film/Video at the Walker Art Center, and Astria Suparak, has curated exhibitions for PS1, Museo Rufino Tamayo (Mexico City), The Kitchen, Eyebeam Art+Technology Center, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, The Liverpool Biennial 2004, and Exposition Chicago 2014 as well as for non-art spaces such as roller-skating rinks, elementary schools, sports bars, rock clubs, and ferry boats. Both curators have put an emphasis on representing a variety of different voices throughout their careers. Otto curated the Walker’s Queer Takes program after serving as the programmer for the Minneapolis/Saint Paul LGBT Film Festival for several years for Minnesota Film Arts.

When reading the post - evaluations by the women participants virtually every one of the 47 women indicated that they would definitely recommend this program to others, this evident through the inmate requests I receive on a daily basis inquiring when the program will be offered again. I believe I did achieve the artistic goals set out in the proposal. Incarcerated women were given the opportunity to express themselves through the narrative process of communication. The participants created poems and other written dialogues that helped that important human need of self-esteem. In addition I saw a bonding of the women participants after the four week program. I witnessed tears of joy and tears of sadness emanating from the women after they had expressed themselves through their works of art. I would like to change where the final reading takes place.

I was successful in this endeavor, I provided lemonade and cookies at the conclusion of each public reading. Although this was a carrot for the other female inmates to attend, it was interesting to note the positive interaction and socialization the female inmates had after each one of the three public readings. In addition to the female inmates attending, I had the Sheriff, under Sheriff, Commander, Assistant jail Administrator, program staff, probation officer and we even had a retired Minnesota Supreme Court Justice attend the public readings.

The Wayzata Symphony Orchestra sought out to advance its mission of bringing together accomplished and passionate musicians to engage the community with enlightening concert presentations. We were successful in achieving the following goals: Present new and familiar technically challenging works in every concert. Partner with local soloists and composers to bring light to new artists and works. Illuminate the ‘inner life’ of the music through verbal commentary and multimedia presentations. This season was challenging yet rewarding. We presented a world premiere, time-honored masterpieces, showcased world class soloists and incorporated multimedia into our performances this season. Our collaborations challenged the orchestra to accompany guest artists at a very high level which resulted in positive feedback from audience members. Each season we strive to broaden our community and this season we were successful in reaching more people through various social media and streaming outlets. We encountered challenges with live streaming to assisted living communities this season. The acoustics in the Wayzata Community Church sanctuary proved to be challenging for the live stream. In order to continue in these efforts, we will have to find quite a bit more funding for equipment which will enable a higher quality product. However, we learned about what is needed to better the technology for the future. We enjoy educating our audiences with facts about composers and their works.

Our goal is to continue to use our Long-Term Planning Committee to further develop ways to reach and educate our audiences in the future. We were successful in reaching our intended community this season. Our outreach efforts of presenting four diverse programs resulted in reaching more new audience members. Specifically, the “Wind Wizards” program reached more children and youth because of our unusual ""Balloon"" soloist; the collaboration with Minnesota Poet Laureate Joyce Sutphen attracted audience members interested in literature and poetry; The Brahms' Requiem attracted and engaged audiences who know and love choral music and that piece in particular; The Planets program with our guest narrator from the Minnesota Astronomical Society brought a large number of audience members who were attracted by the science focus of the concert.

We ended up serving 153 students in nine ensembles, with overall enrollment approximately the same as last year. We had planned for our ensembles to do at least 14 total performances and they did 21.

Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands provides our participants with an opportunity to study and perform jazz music with musical peers on a regular basis throughout the school year. While there are similar school-year opportunities for classical musicians and plenty of summer jazz camps, we believe that Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands is unique in providing a high level ongoing jazz rehearsal and performance opportunity during the school year. Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands benefits not just our students, but also their families, friends, schools and the musical community at large. Our students return to their school programs with increased skills and understanding, which strengthens and inspires their peers. This past season students from 60 different schools participated in a Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands group. There were no unusual challenges this year. The project went very smoothly. We added an extra ensemble for 10 weeks in the fall to accommodate some applicants who did not make our higher groups. The students and parents seemed to appreciate that added opportunity. Our groups performed a total of 21 times: Jazz I performed in public six times, and Jazz II five times; Jazz III three times; the Supersax group twice, the fall Mid-Level Group once, and our North Metro and three Mid-Level groups once each. Each of our public performances brings joy and appreciation to hundreds of people at a time. This past season our groups performed for over 6,000 people, a large increase over the previous year. Parents and families of participating students are very supportive. Recent quotes from parents: “Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands is extremely impressive. You attract many of the state's top young musicians to the program, treat them like the artists that they are, and help nurture their talent and musicianship. It is just a great opportunity you provide for them to gather and rehearse each week and then knock our collective socks off when it comes to the concerts.” “Thanks again for 4 wonderful years. You have a superb team of band directors working with you. Zach has learned so much and has had a lot of fun, as well as making a lot of great new friends.” Accessibility: The community we serve has gotten increasingly diverse over the years. Minnesota Youth Jazz Bands recruits students from over 170 different middle and high schools in all seven metro counties. Our students come from diverse geographic, economic, and cultural backgrounds. Students from many different racial/ethnic backgrounds, male and female, have participated in each of the program’s 12 years. Our students vary widely in age and ability. We’ve structured each of our eight groups for different ages, abilities, program lengths, and geographic locations so that we have a spot for almost everyone who has an interest. We provide liberal scholarship assistance in cases of financial need. Students vary in age and ability. What they all share is a desire to learn and perform jazz music, directed by professional musician-educators, in the company of other students who love music as much as they do. Our rehearsal locations are in different parts of the metro area to provide better access to our program. Our concert locations are centrally located and open to the public. Performance dates, times and location are announced publicly. The CDs we produce are available to anyone for a small fee that helps us cover the production cost. We give away a number of free CDs each year to aspiring jazz students. All of the rehearsal or performance facilities used by the Youth Jazz Bands program are accessible to people with disabilities in accordance with ADA guidelines.

We will have interview conversations and wrap-up meetings with our host partners to generate a plan for next season. Audience Services, Artistic Director and a hired evaluation consultant will be a part of this plan and make recommendations for future seasons. ","26% of our audience experiences opera for the first time via the Operetta. 60% reported this was their first time seeing the Operetta. Most of our audience, 56% reported hearing about the show from friends of family members. ""Friend saw a show in 2012 and he's been raving ever since. In town for the weekend and had to catch it!"" Our audience has been great advocates for the production. Donald Giovanni in Cornlandia was a big success with audiences in the metro area. We received big audiences at performances at the JD Rivers' Childrens Garden, the Skidmore Park Community Garden, the Alexis Bailly Vineyard (two performances), the Bronx Park Community Garden, Dodge Nature Center's Farm Education Center and Frogtown Farm. We received a lot of coverage in local press, praising the musical, theatrical and edible elements of the production. Reviewer Arthur Dorman of Talkin' Broadway praised the production: ""The Picnic Operetta does not pretend to be serious opera, or even operetta, but a delightful send-up of the form, which can be enjoyed by opera buffs and those who don't care for opera, or perhaps have never seen an opera at all. Don Giovanni in Cornlandia is ninety minutes spent in natural surroundings, laughing and having our wits sharpened a bit, enjoying some genuinely lovely Mozart compositions along with some soul tunes, some rock, and some country—and being pampered by the tastes and scents of seasonal foods. The audience includes young and old, and there seems to be something in the Picnic Operetta for everyone to enjoy."" The satirical and political elements of the show landed well on our audiences as we responded to current events, including the Iowa caucuses and the presidential campaign. Members of the cast relished performing in a broad and physical style and relating to an audience in an intimate outdoor setting. ""'m extremely proud of the show we put forth. It was like lightning in a bottle given how intense this election season has been. The opportunity to meet the angry zeitgeist of this season with a show that brings laughter to anyone was incredible and so fulfilling. The project itself of the picnic operetta encourages playfulness and imagination as a performer that I really loved learning to embrace. I think it all went quite smoothly."" Artistically, a few small holes remained unfilled during production, involving props and scenic painting. Our design did not fully take into account sufficient translations of the Italian text in the production. Many props were not created with materials durable enough to handle the outdoor conditions, including rain. Future planning with designers will take these needs into account. Set pieces and equipment used for touring were unreliable and involved a complicated set-up that took an inordinate amount of time. This included our flatbed trailer, which was used as a shelter for the band. This piece of equipment broke several times, welding needed repair and the tires on the trailer blew. This created some burn out for members of the production crew. 2016 was our 8th year presenting the Picnic Operetta. Most of the communities where we perform are very familiar with our work. We have a loyal following and dedicated outreach via our marketing staff and our host partners in each community. Our company values inclusivity and accessibility. Our reservation system is elective, with audiences using an on-line system and making voluntary contributions on-line. Audiences have offered positive feedback regarding their experience regarding this system. We do not turn anyone away at our production. However, we have noted from our post-performance evaluations, that our audience is consistently very white, middle aged and upper middle class. Nearly 500 audience members filled out our post performance survey. 48% of our audience stated that they were between 46 and 65 years old. 94% said they were white. 27% reported household incomes greater than $100,000. For 2017 we wanted to broaden our support and reach more young people. We did meet our goals of openness and and accessibility in the communities where we perform. Traditionally we get a mixed audience of people attending our show from within the community where we perform and people who travel to see our show at a specific venue. 30% addend the performance within their community. 26% reported that this was their first time seeing live opera. Our planning team has concluded that we need to do more specific outreach to group serving youth within the communities where we perform. In 2017 we are developing partnerships with Urban Roots on the East Side of St. Paul and Youth Farm in South Minneapolis, to buy vegetables and work with youth to develop menu items for 2017. We are also planning a performance in North Minneapolis for Project Success students and families. For 2017 we are adding a performance at a community garden in Powderhorn Park. Audience members responded positively to the accessible spirit of our performance. ""Favorite food was the cucumber! Love the energy of the performers, music, and the show's goal of more diverse and accessible opera."" ""Loved your cast! It is wonderful to be in a community that supports art and the outdoors. Thank you!!"" ""An utterly unique re-invention of opera, and I bet, extremely true to the roots of fine-art opera! So glad my 11- year old daughter experienced this!!""",,29950,"Other, local or private ",39950,,"Welles Emerson, Bill Beeman, Rachel Wandrei, Mary Hourigan, Maggie Scanlan",0.00,"Mixed Precipitation","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support ",,"Funding to present the 8th annual picnic operetta, a harvest season tradition combining classical music, horticulture, food, and storytelling in metro area community gardens and urban farms.

Each program will be 15 weeks long (1 hour, weekly sessions) and will provide artistic programing for 15 adults with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Surveys of participants and their support staff members will show that 95% of respondents believe they had an opportunity to ""be heard"" artistically. To evaluate the programs, we will use a tool developed by Upstream Arts that measures the impact on arts learning and particip","During two 15-week sessions, 15 clients participated with only two clients overlapping. Staff members report greater participation in activities and willingness to try new things. They indicate a decrease by at least 50% of maladaptive behaviors. For example, Mike has a history of pulling staff member's hair, and In the ""Art of Social Skills,"" he has been learning positive ways to get attention. Achievement of artistic goals: For this grant, our goals for detailed that the clients would: Have high quality artistic experiences in a variety of disciplines; Express themselves through artistic forms of communication (self-expression); Positively and creatively interact with one another (social interaction); Have increased verbal and physical interactions with peers and staff; Collaboratively participate in the creative arts (cooperative learning); and exhibit fewer maladaptive behaviors. The artists from Upstream Arts brought many different disciplines with them: painting, non-verbal interactive play (e.g. an invisible ball), music, exploration of colors, body movements, and acting. This variety of artistic elements gave each of our participants an avenue to express themselves and learn about verbal and non-verbal communications. It is a beautiful thing when we see clients explore new ways of communicating, whether it is through the use of musical instruments, color, or by using their body. We have had considerable reports of less “maladaptive” behaviors from participants in the program; the Upstream Arts program has provided new avenues for self-expression and self-confidence. We have seen an increase in the interest of our non-verbal clients to interact with their staff. Our program area has drums, tambourines, and shakers. Many times throughout the day, we have clients lead staff members or peers to the instruments and engage in a “conversation” with the staff or a friend using these instruments. One of the favored activities by our clients has been collaborative art pieces. The artist brings a canvas and begins telling a story. Each participant takes a turn, choosing from a variety of colors to add to the canvas, deciding what they want to add to the canvas – e.g. a bold line, a squiggly circle, a thin square, or a rippling ribbon of color. Everyone takes great pride in the pieces they create together, or the stories they act out together! What worked or didn't work? What were strengths/challenges of the artistic process? Each session had a core group of participants. On any given week the group would only fluctuate if there was an absence that day. We know that keeping these core participants together built a feeling of camaraderie and trust between the participants and artist instructors. This trust helped clients move out of their comfort zones to try new things. The clients modeled the positive behavior of the Upstream artists by cheering for each other. Staff members have learned from the artists new techniques to engage their clients and also gained confidence to try new ways to communicate with non-verbal clients. Changes for future programing? In addition to ""Art of Social Skills,"" Upstream offers other programing that would be relevant for clients at Merrick, including ""the Art of Me"" and ""Art of Relationships."" We would be interested in offering these during our service day as well. Internally, we were sometimes surprised by individuals who expressed interest in participating in the program - clients who had not previously expressed interest in the arts, joined the group for an initial session and chose to keep going back each week. As we mentioned in our proposal, artists from Upstream are trained to assume ability and approached the clients with a fresh perspective of encouragement. The small groups and teams of artists gave each client an opportunity to be included and feel they were being ""heard."" Clients are asking when the artists will return!

Pre and post program evaluations will be conducted with each participant and staff.","100% of participants indicated they understood the concept “my body belongs to me.” Open ended survey responses about what was learned include “take care of myself, healthy relationships,” ”boundaries, relationships, respecting others,” “my body belongs to me. Not to do things that make me uncomfortable. Saying no.” and “how to effectively communicate wants and needs. Sex, babies, birth control.” The artistic goals for this project were to: 1. Provide adults with disabilities with high artistic experiences in theater, music, dance, visual arts, and poetry; 2. Provide a safe and creative venue to practice appropriate communication (body language, tone of voice, facial expressions) and “rehearse” relationship interactions; 3. Develop communication skills that will empower participants to make informed choices, with the goal of increasing self-sufficiency and decreasing risk of abuse and negative health outcomes. Midwest Special Services participants experienced a variety of art mediums through The Art of Relationships- theater (rehearsing appropriate relationship interactions), music (creating songs with lyrics), visual arts (painting emotions), and poetry (creating group poems with everyone contributing). Participants and staff expressed in post surveys that Upstream created a safe space where individuals could go “outside their comfort zone”. Participants demonstrated communication skills around the topics of sex, relationships, personal space, etc. They demonstrated this by sharing the information with peers who were not a part of the program- they were empowered by the information. When asked what they learned during the program some participant responses included “I had fun. Learned about personal space/""bubble."" The importance of communication and working together,” and “relationships, sex, communication, boundaries. Taking safe risks.” Using art as a vehicle to relay this type of sensitive information to learners who may not be familiar worked well and was definitely a strength. It fostered an openness within the group and allowed participants some freedom in how they participated. Yes- this program successfully reached the intended community- adults with disabilities and their staff. 100% of the participants were adults with disabilities who attend Midwest Special Services. All of Upstream Arts’ programs are designed for groups with a range of abilities, and Upstream Arts artists have experience addressing the differing needs related to certain types of disabilities, and creating an environment inclusive of all individuals. Adapted tools and techniques were used to enhance the participation of non-verbal individuals; adaptive art supplies for those with limited mobility were used, as well as visual aids. Our goal for making this project open and accessible to all who might wish to participate was met by opening the program up to men. Previously Upstream Arts held an Art of Relationships program at Midwest Special Services that was only for women. This program was open to individuals of any gender identity and the program and group as a whole benefitted from the range in perspectives.

As for serving the second community: students and Americans who are interested in Chinese culture. The concert attracted about 250 students and non-Chinese spectators. We also had one American student serving as the Masters of Ceremony for the concert; Chinese and American audiences were really impressed with his Chinese language skill and understanding of Chinese culture. The singing performance given by guest artists: Mr. Tong Tao (Tenor), Ms. Vanessa Liao (Soprano), and Ms. Amy C. Youngquist (Mezzo-soprano) was another success story. They received many rounds of applause and cheers from audience. As for the third community the concert intended to serve, the senior Chinese community, we were told by many of them that the songs we chose really brought back their memory and touched their hearts. Compared to our previous production concerts, our efforts in reaching out to the senior Chinese had enhanced our relationship with the senior Chinese community.

Most exhibitors made $100-$1500 and liked the community. Rain Taxi successfully staged the 2016 Twin Cities Book Festival on October 15 at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, drawing over 6000 booklovers to the day-long celebration that includes a book fair, readings and signings, and activities for all ages. The Festival kicked off Friday with an opening night party and talk by Kathryn Aalto, on The Natural World of Winnie-the-Pooh. Saturday started off with a bang with a Morning Mingle—over 30 local poets, novelists, and more met with Festival attendees and signed books. Minglers included John Coy, Allen Eskens, Chris Monroe, Faith Sullivan, and Marlon James. Throughout the day, thousands thronged the exhibit hall to peruse nearly 150 publishers, literary orgs, magazines, authors, and more who presented books, author signings, giveaways, deals, and fun all day long. Folks of all ages helped create a giant collage in celebration of 100 years of Dada and tried their hand at a bicycle-driven letter press, creating postcard-sized broadsides. The Children’s Pavilion featured STEM-based activities, along with readings by local authors/rockers Stephen and Trisha Speed Shaskan, and Kare11’s meteorologist Belinda Jensen. Visiting illustrators Philip C and Erin E Stead joined author Michelle Cuevas in presenting their picture books. Youth programming featured Minnesota authors Abby Cooper, Brian Farrey, Kelly Barnhill, Shannon Gibney, and Lara Avery; visiting authors included Stuart Gibbs, Sarah Mlynowski, MA Larson, AS King, and Kathleen Glasgow. Adult presentations in the Fine Arts building included Minnesota authors Stephanie Wilbur Ash, Jason Good, Geoff Herbach, John Jodzio, Mary Mack, Ray Gonzalez, and Charles Baxter. Visiting authors included poets Michael Waters and Janice N. Harrington, comics artist Eddie Campbell, novelists Francine Prose, Lidija Dimkovska, Derek Palacio, and Karan Mahajan, and comedian Phoebe Robinson. One challenge we faced was budgetary. While Rain Taxi won a general operating grant from the State Arts Board, this disqualified us from receiving a Minnesota State Arts Board grant that directly fueled our Festival. Our Board applied to many local businesses for co-sponsorships, but were rejected. We also lost our Metropolitan Library Service Agency partner and co-sponsorship, as they had a retraction in legacy funds. We ended up revamping our exhibitor table fees, offering some premier exhibitor spaces and sponsoring exhibitor options that carried a larger price tag. Even with these increased prices, the Festival is a bargain compared to many across the country—our tables sold out swiftly. We also scaled back on publicity expenses, spending more on digital and targeted advertising. We continue to struggle with the Fairgrounds over having enough food vendors, and received many complaints from attendees. The Fairgrounds didn’t notify us until a week before that we had no inside food vendor and only one outside vendor. We will explore other venues, but so far, the Fairgrounds are affordable and offer enough space and parking. The Twin Cities Book Festival brought together a diverse array of audience, participants, and artists—all book enthusiasts who enjoy celebrating the written word in an energetic and fun setting. The Festival featured a diverse array of presenting authors from many different genres and interests, including African American comedian and podcaster Phoebe Robinson who spoke to a standing-room only audience about her feminist-inflected book You Can’t Touch My Hair. She attracted a wildly diverse audience as to race and age and gender, and her talk was ASL interpreted. The Canadian showcase was also quite diverse, with African Canadian novelist André Alexis and poet Fred Wah, who is part Chinese. Our international authors showcase, The Personal and the Political, featured Indian author Karan Mahajan, Yugoslavian writer Lidija Dimkovska, and Cuban Derek Palacio. Eight of the nine events were ASL interpreted. Exhibitors included publishers, magazines, arts organizations, and more, including Mizna, Button Poetry, Twin Cities Sisters in Crime, Green Card Voices, Minnesota Literacy Council, and more with appeal to book-lovers of all kinds and ages. The venue at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds is ADA accessible, and the spacious Progress Center allowed for plenty of room for navigating wheelchairs and strollers. The Festival engaged people of all ages and backgrounds. Our attendee survey revealed that for 47% of respondents, it was their first one. The rest had returned 2 to 4 times. Most were attracted either by a featured author or the book fair. And 90% spent at least $16 or more at the Festival. When asked what they enjoyed about the festival, one said “Literary geek out with like-minded folks.” Another remarked, “The variety of vendors was the best I’ve seen.” And one enjoyed “the sense of community.” Creating connections and conversation in a lively atmosphere made a difference to the community.",,50000,"Other, local or private",59900,,"Stuart Abraham, Jill Bresnahan, Kelly Everding, Rachel Fulkerson, Renoir Gaither, Mark Gustafson, Kristen Hager, Margaret Hasse, Tim Hedges, Pamela Klinger-Horn, Eric Lorberer, Margaret Telfer, Paul Von Drasek",0.00,"Rain Taxi, Inc.

We shall also assess the degree to which participants learned how to bead in Ojibwe styles, or improved their beadwork techniques. We will use sign-in sheets for all project-related activities to keep track of the unduplicated number of participants, and the number of activities in which they participate. We will use a post-only retrospective survey of participants at/near the end of the project to ascertain what they learned, and how important they thought it was to them.","We had 40 people who participated in the beading sessions at least once, and another 30 people who attended the final celebratory event. About eighteen of the participants were able to successfully finish their pieces. The majority of the participants were Native American, which was our target audience. The age range of the participants went from 12 to 70; most were women, but there were a handful of young men as well. There was a great deal of tribal diversity among participants, including people from the different Ojibwe bands in Minnesota, Lakota and Dakota Sioux, Ho-Chunk, and Potawatomi Nations. We had a number of non-Natives as well, including people who identified as European American/White or African American. A quarter of the participants had no previous beading experience. Two thirds had “some experience,” and only one person rated themselves a “fairly experienced in beadwork,” so the classes had a nice mix of rookies to those with some background. This turned out to be helpful because some of the groups were pretty big, and with only two or three instructors/coaches, the participants helped each other. The social element of the classes was one aspect they liked the most about the project—being able to sit around the table, working on their projects, and talking: the time spent with community while completing my project; the people, welcoming environment, tested my patience which was very good for me, knowledge of the instructors; it has been a nice little escape for me, and its motivated me to start beading at home; So much time to sit and practice and be creative. My life is stressful and its very therapeutic; it’s a great place to work, staff was helpful and understanding; people actually talked and had fun; gathering, socializing, native music (when available); beading and gossiping. Projects like this are especially important to Native Americans, who have experienced historical trauma, including separations from their families, culture and identities. This came out in the comments of participants as well: “Nokomis (grandmother) did beadwork on a loom, so I always told myself I would one day try it. As I was beading my tulips, I felt that much closer to a woman who made such as positive impact on my life,” and “Greater connection to my culture that I have only just begun to learn about due to not knowing about it while growing up. Thank you for that opportunity.” The beading workshops were held in the Gallery which is on the main floor of the Indian Center, so was easy to get to for people with mobility challenges. All of the supplies were provided through the project, which helped many of the low-income people overcome barriers to participate in this art form. Participants completed beading projects and reported feeling a great sense of accomplishment and community, as noted by half of the participants. 75% of participants said their skills increased and 75% noted they learned more about Ojibwe culture, history and traditions.",,3551,"Other, local or private",12351,,"Sam Olbekson, Mark Erickson, Valerie Larsen, Gerald Auginash, Richard Masur, Cecilia Martinez, Dawn Paro",0.00,"Minneapolis American Indian Center","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Learning",,"Funding for activities focused on Ojibwe beadwork, including workshops, field trips, and a final exhibition.

The students will increase their technical skills on their individual instruments, public school instrumental ensembles will perform with increased precision and musicality, and student musicians and Pops Orchestra professionals will play a high-quality, inspiring concert at Lake Harriet in July. Evaluation includes counting attendance at coaching sessions and concerts, collecting evaluation questionnaires from students, Pops Orchestra coaches, and school teachers, and collecting anecdotal responses from audience.","School-year Kids Play served all students enrolled in band and orchestra at South High School, and in orchestra at Southwest High School. Participants, coaches, and audience were as outlined in the proposal. Southwest High School orchestra received 40 hours of sectional coaching sessions for strings. Two Southwest High School orchestras received a total of 20 hours of string instrument coaching, and 3 bands received a total of 16 hours for woodwinds and brass. Summer Kids Play reached our intended participants, although not as many as we had hoped for. 12 coaches worked with 22 students last summer for 3 sectionals and a full student orchestra rehearsal. Diversity in both School-year and Summer Kids Play reflected the diversity in the school ensembles. South High School Orchestra: 2 orchestras, 24 and 28 students each. Minority students served included 7 Hispanic, 4 African American, 3 Asian, 1 Native American. South High School Bands: Wind Ensemble (45 students, 40 white, 5 African American or Asian), Symphonic Band (40 students, 34 white, 6 Asian or African American), Concert Band (39 students, 29 white, 10 Asian or African American). Southwest High School Orchestra: 60 students, including 5 African American, 10 Asian. The basic goals for openness and accessibility were met. However, it was difficult to meet our enrollment goals for Summer Kids Play. As the orchestra director at Southwest High School said, “Honestly, I don’t see how the Minneapolis Pops Orchestra could work better because I have LOVED the way we do it at Southwest. I’d love to get more of our kids going to the summer orchestra opportunity but both transportation and getting kids to commit to the rehearsals is tough with other camps and work.” In 2017 Summer Kids Play enrollment increased to 32 students (not within this granting period); we will continue to work on increased enrollment for 2018. 236 students enrolled in band and orchestra at South and Southwest High Schools participated in coaching sessions held throughout the school year. 22 students received sectional coaching and performed in Summer Kids Play in 2016.

The student members will perform concert, Folk Dance of China, on January 15, 2017 in Brady Educational Center, University of Saint Thomas. 350 audience members are expected to attend and enjoy the concert, Folk Dances of China, while appreciate the vast styles, techniques, and presentations of Chinese Folk Dances. An after-concert evaluation will be conducted on February 9, 2017 by Ms. Cui Tianjiang and Ms. Geli Sun with input from audience surveys, members’ feedback, and newspaper articles.","The most significant outcome of this project is that Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has increased its audience members. The annual concert drew more people than last year. The outreach programs had doubled last year's due to the large crowd in Mall of America. Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater will focus on this opportunity next year and develop strategy to maximize the audience it can attract. -Yes, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has achieved the artistic goals of presenting its annual concert, Colorful Yunnan, on December 4, 2016 at Brady Educational center in University of Saint Thomas. Nine dances which represented Mongolian, Tibetan, Korean (northeast region of China), and 6 distinct Yunnan tribes (Dai, Yi, Jinpo, Mosuo, Bai and Zhuang) were showcased. Audience members commented on how colorful those varieties were! Each dance was unique and stylish. Together, they dazzled the audience. After the annual concert, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater repeated some of the most popular dances in different outreach concerts. On January 28, 2017, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater performed in Mall of America for the TwinCities Chinese New Year celebration. On February 4 and 5, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater performed in Student Center in U of M for, again, Chinese New Year celebration, organized by U of M Chinese students. On February 12, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater performed in University of Saint Thomas Asian Student Association. In each outreach concert, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater received enthusiastic responds for its cultural and ethnic dances which were rarely seen outside of China. Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has successfully reached its mission of bringing the world of Chinese dance and Chinese culture to the public and providing access to this art and promoting the art through the passion of its members. By presenting a variety of Chinese ethnic dances with authentic costumes and music, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has become one of the most regarded cultural organizations. Many organizations invite Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater to perform at the cultural events. Some even collaborated with Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater in its 2016 annual concert: Xu Qian Music Center Chorus and Mr. Ying Zhang, a traditional Chinese musical instrument soloist. The Chorus performed songs that augmented Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater dances and allowed Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater dancers to change their costumers for the next dance. Mr. Ying Zhang delighted the audience by playing a rare Chinese castanets solo using ""Radetzky March,"" a fusion performance of the east and the west! However, some audience members commented that the musical performances were ""boring."" They said they would rather wait for Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater dancers to be ready for the next dance than watching the musical performances. To rectify the audience's comments regarding added musical performances, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater will split the dancers into two groups. Each group will alternate; Group A will perform dance 1, 3, 5, 7... while Group B will performance dance 2, 4, 6, 8... thus the musical performances wouldn't be needed. Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has successfully reached its intended community. The annual concert drew over 380 audience members which comprised of 62% Asian, 30% Caucasian, 4% Black, 3% Hispanic, and others. The outreach activities were attended by over 1,000 people! Yes, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater's outreach effort in Mall of America on January 28, 2017 had attracted many audience members who had never seen Chinese dance before. They commented on how beautiful the dances were and they subscribed to Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater email list to receive future performance info. Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has achieved its goals for making Chinese dance accessible to all by performing in varies cultural events. The outreach concerts were all free and audience members can subscribe to Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater email list to receive future performance info or visit website.

During the production phase, we will survey the production team using a short series of fill-in-the-blank questions, e.g., “I’m worried that ________ will be the least effective part of the spoken word series,” following up when necessary with brief 1-on-1 phone interviews.

All of our three institutional partners reported a desire to work with Motionpoems again. Two of our five poets have either taken up film classes of their own or initiated another film project after engaging with this project. All but three of our artists came to the premiere at IFP Minnesota (those three were out of town). All artistic goals were met. We hired E. G. Bailey as our Guest Producer, solicited poems from the local spoken word community with help from several activists in that community, recruited filmmakers, negotiated contracts with all artists, completed all films on time, screened them all publicly at the Walker Art Center and IFP Minnesota, paid all artists, and evaluated our programming as planned. We are always re-tooling our production model, changing up our partnerships, exploring new ways of working. This project was a first for Motionpoems in that we haven’t yet turned our attentions on the spoken word poetry community, and we were grateful for the opportunity to do that. Motionpoems is a national organization, drawing poets and filmmakers from around the world, and this project allowed us to focus some attention on our local community of artists and serve artists here. We found the community receptive and enthusiastic. Poet Kevin Yang loved his project, mainly for the way film reimagined his poem; he’s talking about getting into filmmaking classes at Saint Paul Neighborhood Network now. Poet Louis Alemayehu liked his film despite early trepidation. Poet Blythe Baird liked how Valerie took her film to the Women’s March, a film that broadly interpreted her poem; she initiated another film project on her own after engaging with us. Poet Dessa Wander was thrilled with her film, a highly stylized Coen-esque reimagining that took audiences by surprise. Filmmakers reported favorably as well. One liked “how much creative freedom I had. I also enjoyed talking to the poet a lot about her work and what we planned on doing. Also, in creating the piece, how intense it was working with only women in front of the camera! It had a different energy or vibe.” Another: “Being able to explore and being able to just step out of my narrative filmmaking style truly allowed this project to challenge me... which I really like and enjoyed. The experience was definitely worth it and the diverse cast of poets and filmmakers was incredible!”All artists reported in surveys that their completed film would help them in their careers. “It’s a great showcase of my film archiving work and reinterpretation of history,” wrote one. Two said they would submit their film to film festivals. Said another: “It allows me to have a more diverse video work to show to my clients or recruiters looking to hire me for my work, as Motion Poem truly allowed us to experiment and have full control of production.” Yet another: “I will use it on grants, promotional material, and as an inspiration to create more work/collaborate across mediums.” We successfully reached our intended community. We had no particular audience demographics in mind, fully aware that the spoken word community is extremely diverse, but we did stress the importance of diversity in the selection of our filmmakers, which in the end skewed female and minority. Open calls for poets insured that everyone connected to the Loft’s spoken word community or the local slam teams knew about the opportunity. Our partnerships with Button Poetry, The Loft Literary Center and IFP Minnesota assured broad notification and awareness. Attendance at our events is always free and publicity was supported by The Walker, Button, The Loft, and IFP Minnesota.

The fall performance saw x audience participants (x first time attendee), the winter performance saw x audience participants (x first time attendee) and the summer performance saw x audience participants (x first time attendee). For this project, we proudly achieved our goal to present three meaningful, thematic choral programs for our audience. We were particularly successful in our projected ticket sales. Sales for both ""Cuentamé un cuento"" and ""imPulse Happy Hour"" sold out. Our collaborative process with ComMUSICation, our storyteller for ""Cuentamé,"" and our experience with In the Heart of the Beast added to the creative process. Our project shined in its diverse audience and venues. Our July performance proved to be our most racially diverse so far, and the Phillips Neighborhood got closely involved. Our greatest challenge was our experience with Lake Monster. While or most popular performance, our verbal agreement for use of the space did not translate to the actual performance. Expectations for use of the space on both sides were misread, which affected the success of the venue itself (noise level, beverage service, and chair set-up for audience. One important change that we would adopt that we have now established is to enter into a written agreement with our partners and venues, since many of the venues we work with are not accustomed to working with a choral or performing ensemble. MPLS (imPulse) audience members are diverse in age (18-65) but are predominantly Caucasian Twin Cities residents. MPLS (imPulse) presents mostly secular music in a choral community where sacred music is predominantly performed and supported, which provides opportunities for diversified concert repertoire and thematic programming. Performing this music in secular spaces also eliminates potential barriers of participation from the non-religious or people of different faiths. By creating a welcoming environment, we reach audiences that may be overlooked. Through this project, MPLS(imPulse) successfully reached its intended audiences and expanded further. Each performance was deeply rooted in the community and additional opportunities came to the forefront as the projects developed with our community partners. The fall performance increased our reach to child and family audiences in St. Paul through the collaboration with ComMUSICation. Our summer performance with In the Heart of the Beast connected MPLS(imPulse) with new audiences in the south Minneapolis viewing the performance on stage, but also allowed the neighborhood to watched from their front doors as the choir marched by on their way to the river to release their lanterns.

We will be able to better compensate our artists, and also better tell their stories and share their exclusive, world-caliber insights with more people in concerts as well as online. We will track the growth in audience sizes both in our regular Sundin series as well as at new venues. We will survey audiences at least one regular series concert and one runout event to track how effective our programming is at reaching the goals outlined in the grant narrative.","The biggest outcomes for The Musical Offering over the last season relate to the seriousness with which the company has to approach its operations. First, we've seen audiences respond to being engaged by intellectual content via video - wicked popular online, and right. Second, we are forced to develop a plan to sustain our annual funding needs through sustained donor development. Over this past season, The Musical Offering focused on the works of migrant composers who traveled to Paris, a season that began in the wake of the November 2015 attacks and ended up concluding in an atmosphere of increased social and political tension. This was an opportunity for the ensemble to do two things: first, we raised the level of awareness our audience had about the density and frequency of migrant composers - canonical names like Prokofiev and Copland aren't often recognized that way. Since conversation is wound into The Musical Offering's concerts through intermission interviews and intentional post-concert discussions, we found audiences resonating with this theme regardless of their political views, a recognition of music as an international, cross-cultural phenomenon that is enriched by the intersection of nationalities. The second opportunity The Musical Offering has focused on during this time is the experience of listening to live chamber music itself and the positive physiological effects that come from attending concerts. The time of peaceful, restful contemplation of complex, diverse, and richly beautiful music is an undeniable refuge for our audience and our musicians in this time of social and political crisis. In terms of tangible evidence of these artistic goals, we've had strong metrics from our concerts to support these claims. We always survey our audience at least twice a year (and at least once post-concert), and again this year we found audiences unanimously agree that the quality of music is world-class, ""as good as one could expect anywhere in Europe or America."" We also found again this year that first-time attendees are most likely to express that their experience was so positive that it both exceeded their expectations and encouraged them to attend again (and bring friends). Our core ensemble musicians also attest that the artistic direction of the group is strong and the musical quality high. One strong piece of evidence for this is their willingness to be recorded and observed throughout the rehearsal process, primarily through videos that our Executive Director created in advance of performances for promotion and educational purposes. Rehearsals are not necessarily pretty, glamorous, and commonly in other ensembles it can be a time of tension and conflict - but not for The Musical Offering's ensemble, the magic 'secret sauce' that keeps The Musical Offering at the top of its game. The Musical Offering had both successes and missed opportunities in its 2016-2017 season in terms of audience engagement. At the beginning of the season, The Musical Offering was poised to repeat every concert in at least once additional venue throughout the year, building community relationships and visibility that we hope will continue to increase our subscriber and patron base in the long term. For instance, in October 2017 The Musical Offering repeated selections from its season opener at the Bakken Museum, returning to that venue after over 20 years. The venue had a long-standing relationship to The Musical Offering prior to the mid 90's, so it was an opportunity for us to rebuild those bridges and increase our presence on the Minneapolis side of the river. Our audience skewed much younger for that concert - exactly what we had outlined and intended, even letting us engage young professionals groups and other pockets of the next generation that has been sorely desired in our seats for years. Ultimately, this season saw an increase in audience size, culminating with the season finale concert of Appalachian Spring, which was our largest audience size in years, including a tourist group from France. However, The Musical Offering fell short of its goals in that we were not able to repeat our two 2017 concerts in additional venues. This is directly tied to an unforeseen outcome of expanding the number of concerts in our season: personal personnel conflicts among decades-old stakeholders in the organization. Short of revealing identities, a retired member of the ensemble was taken aback by not being the first choice to substitute in for a free hour-long public concert at Centennial Lakes park in Edina, but because of his stake and long-standing connections in the organization, we ended up losing about 50% of our contributed revenue for the season when he, his spouse, and their close network of supporters pulled their regular sponsorship-level gifts. This created many levels of challenges for The Musical Offering over the course of its last season, but it is leading to a future of more sustainable operations. We had to have serious conversations about interpersonal expectations while completely readjusting how we raise money from our donor base. Fortunately, the board of directors has taken this task very seriously, and we are currently working with outstanding fundraising and nonprofit management consultants pro bono to create a more robust development portfolio for the upcoming seasons. We are also planning much more aggressive marketing tactics for our upcoming season that will for the first time in years let us reach every one of our core supporters individually through phone calls and meetings.",,51680,"Other, local or private",61680,,"Jack Bryce, Susan Billmeyer, Dorothy Delegard, Don Davis, Caroline Lemen, Jerry Luckhardt, Pam McNulty, Norbert Nielubowski, Susan Ripley, Michael Landrum",0.00,"The Musical Offering","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 46th season featuring four concerts focused on immigration and chamber music.

Indeed, part of the Studio’s success in the past has been to introduce the artform to artists who would otherwise not consider it a viable outlet for theatrical or musical expression. The Studio is designed to include both emerging and established artists, who tend to interact with each other with gusto: the emerging artists learn from the established artists, and the established artists gain access to “beginner’s mind”. We cast a wide net across the Twin Cities’ arts community, and since we are especially interested in nurturing artists who may not think of themselves as traditional writers or composers, we contact a wide variety of performing arts organizations for suggestions for possible participants. In this case, we successfully reached our target community. We had 5 established artists, and 10 emerging artists; 2 artists of color, 5 female artists, and 1 transgender artist. Our selection process is rigorous, as the evaluation panel consists of previous participants who know the program, and the two directors. We were very pleased with the mix of participants.

Much of the credit goes to the teaching artists from Upstream Arts as they, with support from PRI staffers, were able to draw each participant into the activities while respecting their choice to do so at the level most comfortable for them. Each participant gained skills for success they can use every day. The goals of the project were to remove barriers to access for 15 adults with disabilities so they could participate in a high quality artistic experience, in a safe and accessible venue, that employed multidisciplinary activities providing engaging ways to practice appropriate communications (body language, tone of voice, facial expressions, etc.) and “rehearse” workplace interactions while developing the soft skills that can increase employability and work readiness. The artistic goals of Partnership Resources service recipients, staff participants, and teaching artists were reached over the 8 week project period. Reaching goals such as self-awareness, ability to focus, cooperation, effective communication, positive attitude, being a team player, flexibility, and accepting feedback were different for everyone. Goals were achieved to varying degrees, but the overall assessment was that the project was both enjoyable and successful. The variances related to each individual's goal achievement is attributable more to the person's abilities than any shortcoming of the artistic process. While the scale of improvement achieved ranged from slight to significant, all answered ""yes"" to the question ""Do you think the program has a positive impact on this individual?"" One of the most significant strengths of the artistic process relating to ""The Art of Working"" program was the support of the teaching artists along with Partnership Resources staff support, which gave participants the confidence to go outside their comfort zone and participate in front of their peers. The only thing that would be changed, should the opportunity to repeat the same or similar project occur, would be to have at least two more sessions in order to give participants either more time to get comfortable or to improve skills at an even higher level. It seemed that those who were inclined to participate in group activities experienced more success than those who tended to be a bit more shy and the additional sessions might be enough to get the more reticent participants to get to the next level of success or skill improvement. The community served by this project and the population benefitting was consistent with what was described in the proposal as submitted. Having the project activities at the Hopkins Pavilion brought diverse groups of people together as it included Upstream Arts teaching artists, a group of adults with disabilities, and Partnership Resources Direct Support Professionals in the increasingly diverse community of Hopkins, Minnesota. The Pavilion staff and members of the public who shared the community resource with these groups during the project period fostered diversity through their daily interactions. The goal of making the project open and accessible, while considering the safety and welfare of Partnership Resources' service recipients as we are committed to do, was achieved primarily through the Regional Arts Council funding as it removed the financial barriers to access for project participants. The project being open and accessible was also achieved through Partnership Resources' ability to choose its community arts partner, Upstream Arts, and a venue that was easily accessed by project participants. This allowed Partnership Resources to design and execute the project so that it made for a safe, productive, and fun way to gain skills that can help the individuals engaged be confident contributing members of the community.",,1862,"Other, local or private",5585,,"Lisa Benrud, Michael Blaes, Fred Borstad, Jeffrey Ericson, Kevin Hofman, Robert A.

We produced fewer evenings of Cabaret performances than expected, producing 9 rather than the 12 distinct events we expected to produce, resulting in 19 rather than the 24 evenings we anticipated. We did produce annual returning platforms Anything But English, and CabarABLE, and even created three new annual platforms that will return in 2017 and 2018 (Lighting Rod, Controlled Burn, and My Horrifying Holiday). Our primary challenge was the wider organizational crisis of losing our building, and the subsequent loss of funding and audience. We were unsure about what our new mobile orientation would do to our business model, project costs, and results, so the 2016 Fall and 2017 Spring Seasons became laboratories to test what worked and what didn’t. We have scaled our activities to what the current staffing level can afford, which is approximately 8-10 Cabaret events in a 12-month period, which we have now newly branded our “Mainstage” Cabarets. We have also shifted to an all-Curator model, where external Curators put together Cabaret line-ups and serve as the primary community-builders of Patrick’s Cabaret’s most public program. We have continued to adapt the Mainstage Cabaret program, and are making continuous improvement. As stated, we have moved to a Curator-driven model, which will not reduce the amount of energy we spend on producing event, but will diversify participants (in the broadest sense of the word), and strengthen the pipeline of engagement of new people in our activities. We also are working to improve how we plug Cabaret participants into other parts of our programming. Overall, the core spirit of the Cabaret program initiated in 1986 continues on today, supporting the growth of artists by making the space for them to generate art that is often discouraged, quieted, censored, or (perhaps most tragically) never even considered possible in the first place. We carefully track the number and demographics of artists we engage, serving as the primary quantitative measures of our activities, and we did a good job of maintaining these records. In our proposal, we expected to engage 250 artists, and 2500 adult participants (audiences), which was based on numbers from our previous seasons’ statistics. In the end, with our programming reduced slightly, and with a significant loss of our previous audience, we supported a (still impressive) 148 artists, and attracted 952 audience members. While our footprint was reduced, we remain one of the organizations in town serving a relatively large number of artists in each annual cycle, and are unique in that we support artists presenting their own work, as much on their own terms as we can. During these seasons, the Cabarets provided an effective and impactful platform for artists to create new work, and we continue to strive to center our programs on serving artists of color, with disabilities, and with queer and trans identities. Unfortunately our programming statistics from this newly mobile period did not live up to the statistics from 2015 across the board, with a slight reduction in the percentages of people of color (-18%) and women (-15%), but did see growth in the percentages of queer artists (+21%), transgender artists (+17%), artists with disabilities (+6%), and emerging artists (+22%). Overall, our statistics still show a diverse community, well above the demographic averages for the state of Minnesota. We expect that adopting the Curator-driven model will further increase diversity, especially racial diversity. As we have sought out venues, we have made it important that they are as accessible as possible. All Cabaret performances were produced at venues where BOTH the audience areas and the stage are fully accessible to wheelchairs. It is unfortunately extremely uncommon for stages to be accessible to wheelchairs, which greatly reduces our options for venues. One venue (Intermedia Arts) also has a fragrance free restroom. We provided ASL interpretation and Audio Description at multiple performances, but unfortunately did not have many users of these services. We expect that the challenges of audiences following us to new venues is particularly difficult for audiences with disabilities.",,54705,"Other, local or private",64705,,"Peter Foster, Lisa Brimmer, Howard Lieberman, Paul Nemeth, Tom Cassidy",0.00,"Patrick's Cabaret","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to produce the 2016 Fall and 2017 Spring Season Cabaret events, including Concept Cabarets, Open Call Cabarets, and Guest Curated Cabarets.

And we filed our class successfully. We will drew the majority of our senior students from the activities programs at the Sabes Jewish Community Center in Minneapolis. Everyday thousands of people of every age, background, race, religion, gender and sexual orientation come through the doors of the Sabes Jewish Community Center with the expectation and promise that they will be welcomed and embraced.

We embrace all of the diversity that makes Minnesota what it is. ?The Senior Acting Studio offered a special place for our growing senior population to participate in an art form they are often not included in. The Senior Acting Studio was illuminated by a multitude of experiences and perspectives; the beauty of it was that theatre is a flexible art form; it can be performed in any language, by people of with any level of education, experience, and physical ability. We reached this audience with 50% of our participants reporting that they are disabled. Our participants were seniors (70+), of many cultures, races and economic backgrounds.

We strive to mirror our community with representatives from many constituencies within in our target audience. While our board is working to approve our accessibility plan, we have implemented many tools. Our class and performance space was completely accessible to wheel chairs and other mobility devices. We offered large print scripts upon request. We strived to make sure our rehearsals and theatre were comfortable for every potential audience member and artist as they possibly could be. Participants were not be required to memorize their scripts, and we provided ways to read from them within the classes and performances. We offered additional accommodations upon request, including interpreters. Participants were allowed and encouraged to bring additional assistance (family members, friends, caretakers) as needed to make sure their involvement was comfortable for them. Senior Acting Studio was offered as a free program for any senior interested in participating. It was completely funded by grant and contributor support, in order to make sure that anyone who wanted to learn to act could. 45 seniors participated in the acting studio with 48 audience members attending the performance.

Sabathani Community Center is dedicated to meeting the needs of our neighborhood residents. To achieve this, we train staff and leadership to continually evaluate and improve programming to suit the needs of the diverse community. All personnel involved in the project will evaluate our success with the following goal and objectives in mind.","The first outcome was that 30 youth had a better understanding of neighborhood diversity. The second, and perhaps, as important outcome, was that 30 youth were able to meet mentors and have a vision of what they can become in the future. The last important outcome was that we gained 12 key community leaders that aim to continue involvement with youth and educate them on community leadership. Did you achieve your artistic goals? The artistic goals of the project were to provide a platform for youth to discuss and welcome diversity as a life skill, and further, to empower the youth as leaders of diversity and engage the audiences. We accomplished this by providing 30 youth with the opportunity to explore the history of south Minneapolis neighborhood they live in and understand changes that have happened over the decades. Including about a dozen well-known community leaders, we accomplished this with a real pizzazz. What worked? What didn’t work? What were the strengths/challenges of your artistic process? Because we were unable to have Pancho Demmings as the host theater guide, we had to find other known personalities to support the youth and act as mentors in the program. We decided to change the approach (as we communicated, this also meant that we were postponing the performance from Summer 2016 to Spring 2017). In early 2016, we created a Community Room that highlighted famous area residents. Sharon Sayles Belton, Judge Pamela Alexander, Judge LaJuene Lange, Senator Jeff Hayden, Civil Rights Activist Rosita Blach and William Glanton took to the stage to join youth. What, if anything, would you do differently if you had the opportunity to repeat a similar project? We would do this same project again because both the youth and the adults were so greatly impacted. The adults loved that they were such heroes to the youth. The youth felt that these individuals were the highlight of the show and afterward, said ""I'm going to be a judge when I grow up, I'm going to be a police officer, mayor, etc. If we did anything more, we would involve more adults and more youth as pairs. The concept of our play became that a youth would portray the public figure (for example, Sharon Sayles Belton, Pam Alexander, Jeff Hayden) when they were a youth growing up in South Minneapolis, and then, the real person would come out and talk about diversity, opportunity, and challenges in the neighborhood as it was in the past and currently. Did you successfully reach your intended community (i.e. audience, participants, artists, etc.), If not, why? Yes, we were able to include about 30 youth and 12 community leaders. We had scheduled the play practices so that we could include area programs like the Boys and Girls Club and students from Richard Green, but those programs decided not to participate, so we only had 30. To counter this, we opened it up to after school programs in our buildings and had some involvement there. In the above section, if the estimated Population(s) Benefiting was different than the actual Population(s) Benefitting, please explain why. The youth were impacted, as originally proposed. The youth were greatly impacted by being mentored by key community leaders including first female African American Mayor of Minneapolis, Sharon Sayles Belton. Famous lawyers and senators were there to discuss with youth, and youth really saw that they can become something great. Did your outreach efforts result in community diversity? If not, what would you do differently in the future? Yes, Sabathani Community Center represents community diversity. Not only did we have key African American leaders, but we had key Latino Civil Rights Activist Rosita Blach. We had tried to include key Somali leaders, but were unable to get the buy in we needed for the performance schedule. In what ways did you meet your goals for making your project open and accessible to all who might wish to participate? We put out fliers about the Community Showcase to share with The Boys and Girls Club, Richard Green Elementary, and Hosmer Library. They were invited to be involved and we created a schedule so that Boys and Girls club youth could join us.",,8153,"Other, local or private",18153,,"Stefan Miller, Katie Pfeifer, John Beam, Tessa Mielke, Cindy Booke, James Burrough II, Carolyn Henry, Jay Isenberg, Clarence Jones, Jason Justus, Ederick Lokpez, Cora McNeil, Lean Milojevic",0.00,"Sabathani Community Center, Inc.

Average attendance was 23 with the memoir class being the smallest and the puppet class being the largest. Only two of the attendees were below the poverty line. In addition to our mostly Caucasian residents, we had 3 African Americans, 2 Native Americans, 1 Hispanic and 1 East Asian. Trying to invite everyone, we posted a large colorful poster provided to us by COMPAS in the bulletin window by the front desk and another in the elevator, we made smaller flyers that were posted throughout the building, the activities were listed on the daily sheets given to residents and we included the announcement on the white boards which are by each nursing station and are updated daily. We also personally invited residents and they were announced each morning. We encouraged all regardless of their ethnic diversity. The diversity of our entire population was represented in the programs we offered. Our volunteers also, were a mixture of diversity, not only ethnic but in age as well. One of the high school students wants to follow in Anne Krocak's steps and has come back to Redeemer several times with other high school friends to do more art with our residents on week-ends! It was great to hear the students say how much they learned from the residents. I had not expected that the community we touched would expand to have such an influence on our young people. A celebration was planned at the conclusion of each art learning experience. The greatest of these was the chance to load our residents in our bus and take them to a real live stage at Bryant Bowl to share their memoir stories. The audience including many from the Uptown Community, was supportive and encouraging. We went early enough so residents could eat at the Bryant Lake Cafe which made the evening extra special for them. We did go over ahead of time to check out accessibility and had to change the stage a bit to accommodate the wheelchairs. Everything done in our building is totally accessible. The other proud moment for the residents was their puppet show. The wonderful high school helpers were behind the curtain with their resident to hold up their arm so the puppet could be seen. One lady in introducing her puppet said ""My name is Helga Jorgenson and I am from Sweden and I like coffee with a lot of cream. You'd love Sweden so come over and visit."" All of it was said in a Swedish accent! One puppet, the Cookie Monster, made by a resident that is quite reserved, become a funny, outgoing character as he took on the role of his puppet. One lady could only say the name of her puppet, but Christopher, our teacher, would say, ""Gertie is a little shy but she likes to dance!"" He played on his guitar and with the student's help, Gertie danced! Residents love their puppets!

We had over 50 volunteers. Audience surveys, Facebook comments, and comments during our post-production meeting showed that our audience was happy with our production. Our goal with our production of Jungle Book is to continue to grow our increasing fan base and provide a high quality theatre experience to both the participants and audience. We feel we achieved our goal in several aspects. One of the reasons River City Theatre Company chose Jungle Book was the challenge and opportunity for development it presents for each of the cast, crew and production team. One of the biggest challenges we anticipated was accommodating a large and diverse cast. We experienced both benefits and challenges with this. We had 39 actors participate ranging from 4 to 60+ including seven families with more than one participant. We were able to see a strong connection and bond form between all ages of the cast. We had over 100 years acting experience on stage. A great majority of our children actors were participating in their first on-stage production. We considered that a benefit and a challenge. First-time actors benefit a show because they bring a fresh perspective to the stage. It was challenging because new actors need more input from the director and need to learn the basics of projection, stage directions, and staying in character. Equally inspiring was the amount of learning that occurred behind the scenes. Our set was designed such that participants of all ages and skill levels were able to participate in building it. We had six-year-olds and 60 year olds working on the set at the same time. We had over one dozen volunteers working on everything from construction to painting, to making rocks out of papier mache. Thus, the show allowed all participants to become an integral part of a live theatrical production. Our challenges included finding enough backstage help for the stage crew and back stage child supervision, as well as help in the front of the house. We accomplished this by bringing in siblings and parents of cast members to help with ushering, ticket sales, concession sales, set moving, and child supervision. We also had adults and older youth cast members help out as set movers. If we had an opportunity to repeat a similar project, we might try to recruit more volunteers ahead of time. We felt that we reached the community we wished to serve for the most part. We achieved diversity in age in our cast, crew, volunteers, and our audience. The Jungle Book drew audience members from babies under a year old to many senior citizens from our community. We served the populations we expected to serve. The community of Watertown continues to support River City Theatre Company. Our 19 local business sponsors showed strong support from our community. The local newspaper wrote articles about the production, and flyers were sent home with children in local school districts. We also had support from our local Girl Scout troops and Leos (youth Lions Club), whose members volunteered to usher. We made our show accessible by offering roles, either on or offstage, to anyone who wished to participate. Part of our accessibility efforts are the low participation fees for cast members. We cap our participation fee at $60 per family ($30 per individual). The Jungle Book had seven families participate as cast members in the show. We offered scholarships to 14 people who could not afford to pay the fee. Our regular ticket prices for The Jungle Book were $7 for adults and $5 for students and senior citizens. We offered a variety of $1 off specials and even sent a flyer home with the elementary school students that offered free child admission with a paid adult.

We performed three times- first for a VERY Diverse student summer school audience (which was also recruiting for future programs) which was very receptive and responsive; a ""Rosetown audience"" which was a performance advertised to our database and was very well attended with a variety of ages; and a performance at Woodbridge Apartments, which brought in many diverse community members and families of students. The audience reactions and anecdotal comments after seeing the show were very positive. The Karen traditional song and dance, hearing Dah Salween play an instrument which was built in a refugee camp and brought with to the US was amazing, and the stories shared about what was ""in their bag"" and how it got there were moving and funny.

Season tickets sold during the season were 206. One of our artistic goals have been to perform diverse repertoire from concert to concert within a season to better serve the varying tastes of our community. Our three concert series this season included our traditional Christmas touching on styles of traditional music from various cultures around the world, a February concert exploring the masterwork collection of eleven Zigeunerlieder (Gipsy songs) by Brahms which was a significant challenge, and an April concert series featuring small group performs and the entire chorale performing songs by Billy Joel, Miley Cyrus, Franz Joseph Haydn, Steven Sondheim, etc. Another of our goals was to seek new artistic challenges. The most prevalent example of this during the season was the performance and rehearsal of Brahms Zigeunerlieder for the February concert in our season. The piece required great vocal flexibility from the singers as well as wide vocal ranges, not to mention the entire work was performed in German. Many of our singers have sung in German but the amount of not repeating German text presented a very significant challenge more so than was anticipated. The performance of the Zigeunerlieder would have benefited from both additional rehearsal time and better preparation from some of the singers. Another of our goals were to keep our concerts affordable and accessible which we did achieve with the addition of student/senior price tickets and a new ticket voucher program which was very successful, 3/4 of all vouchers used by the end of the season. Our organization served the community we had intended and had expected. They are the demographic age between young adult, 25yr old, and the elderly, 65+. Of those two defined age definitions our audience is a little stronger in the elderly demographic. In our local community and surrounding counties cultivating a diverse audience is difficult. This season in an attempt to broaden our audience diversity we implemented 2 new strategies: discount tickets for seniors and students, and new ticket vouchers for season ticket holders. Ticket vouchers were very successful with 3/4 of all vouchers being utilized by the end of the season. We also saw a small uptick in the number of student tickets purchased. We still feel there could be additional avenues for increasing community diversity within our audience.

For Saint Paul Vocal Forum singers, a desired outcome is to confront our ideas of homelessness and to form new understanding as we go through this process, and to achieve a clearer vision of what we mean when we say every voice matters."" Evaluation of the success of this project will include a count of the audience attending, an estimation (based on voluntary audience survey) of diversity of the audience. We will also conduct singer surveys and host a post-project joint meeting/debrief with both the Saint Paul Vocal Forum and New Day singers, for a group discussion to understand how this project impacted their ideas of homelessness, human resilience and the power of music to create connections.""","By survey, 100% of choir members expressed deeper understanding of “every voice matters” –they found connection in the process, appreciated the different places we come from as we interpreted the music, found meaning in the emotional rather than the intellectual interpretation of the music, and focused on connection and trust as the project went on. 225 audience members attended the concert. “Success for this project will be realized when our choirs come together to create a concert that speaks deeply and builds connections between singers and audience.” As we reflected on this, we realized that the originally planned repertoire would not lead to this success. As a result, our theme changed to one of inclusivity and our desire to “draw the circle wide.” The new repertoire included all singers-both Saint Paul Vocal Forum and New Day – in all songs as one choir. With this change, we met our artistic goals and surpassed our expectations! Our August retreat brought together both choirs to explore the music which centered on the concept of Widening Circles. We shared stories and perspectives about the musical messages, we shared a meal, we created shawls for every singer to wear at the concert. We began the process of writing our own verses for an arrangement of “Will the Circle Be Unbroken,” facilitated by Jean Greenwood and J. David Moore. The repertoire selected by director Karin Barrett explored the idea of widening circles, widening our perceptions…it gave all the singers some challenge. It also musically represented the theme by including rounds, and by including the audience in the singing (widening the circle at the concert). Asking Saint Paul Vocal Forum to commit some of the music to memory created a new level of engagement. While the challenges of directing New Day remained (attendance is fluid, more process oriented rather than goal oriented) it was important for them to understand that their contribution was key to the success of the program. NEW DAY was grateful for the opportunity to learn more about reading music in addition to teaching by imitation, and they expressed that this was really important to them even though it was quite a challenge! A reception for all the singers and audience members followed the concert. Many choir and audience members took advantage of the opportunity to talk together about their experience. It was very well received. The strength of the process was the collaboration, coming together for rehearsals at Saint Christopher Place, where many of the New Day singers reside, and owning the idea of being part of a unified circle of existence – all of us, regardless of our backgrounds or stories, are part of the inclusive circle. The challenge of the process was to stay in the process…to not get drawn into a more goal oriented approach, which is what Saint Paul Vocal Forum is used to. Working with NEW DAY made us more aware of the process of music making, and this helped Saint Paul Vocal Forum singers who may have been frustrated or judgmental at the outset to shift the focus from judgment to joy in the process of singing together and finding deeper value in our collective voice. The concert was held at Central Presbyterian Church in downtown St Paul. While the New Day choir rehearsed at Assumption, they were not available to host the concert. We believe we may have lost some Dorothy Day audience because of the added distance-a consideration for a future project. The singers from New Day included people of color and people who have experienced homelessness or those who support them – clearly one of our intended communities. We hoped for more singers to participate in New Day, but feel like this was a good start due to the fluidity of this demographic. There were between 8 and 10 singers who consistently joined us…4 women and 4-6 men, depending on the day. Overall, the community who came to hear the concert was more diverse both economically and racially than our normal audience due to friends and family of the NEW DAY singers. We also attracted new audience members who were interested specifically in the collaborative vision that this concert represented as well as audience members interested in supporting people experiencing homelessness. It was disappointing that we did not see as many people from the Dorothy Day Center as we had hoped would attend the concert. We believe part of the difficulty was that the concert couldn’t be held at Assumption Church which is just across the street from Dorothy Day. Central Presbyterian was about 4 blocks away. While a concert is one format, to really engage the people who are experiencing homelessness who use the services of Dorothy Day center, the concert program would need to be at the facility or right there outside. This is something in the works for a future time! We have been pleased that interest remains high in both choirs and the audience to continue this collaboration! In order to be open and accessible, we held joint rehearsals at Saint Christopher Place, where many of the New Day singers reside. We also provided rides for New Day members to the concert venue as needed. We were able to accommodate those with physical needs during the concert (seating, music stands, etc.) and provided healthy snacks/meals at rehearsals and at the concert reception. Central Presbyterian Church is fully accessible and served by public transportation, allowing easy access for audience members and choir members.",,7550,"Other, local or private",17550,,"Mary Jo Lewis, Phil Soucheray, Karen Esbjornson, Patrice Cicchese, Glenn Davis, Janet Zahn, Scott Sandberg, Perri Graham-Raff, Kathleen Bartholomay",0.00,"Saint Paul Vocal Forum","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for Through the Valley, a collaborative concert with New Day Street Choir that will explore through choral music the paradox of lament and praise, and its meaning with respect to the challenge of homelessness, human resilience and the power of mus",2016-07-01,2017-01-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,MaryJo,Lewis,"Saint Paul Vocal Forum","1400 Searle St","St Paul",MN,55130,"(612) 280-9160 ",saintpaulvocalforum@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-717,"Glorianne Svitak: Artistic, education, organizational development; John Megas: Artistic, youth programming, disabilities specialist; Angela Bernhardt: Fundraising, administration, community service; Jessica Briggs: Artistic, administration; Taja Will: Artistic, education, community service; Marlene Pauley: Education, artistic, youth programming; Andrew Dolan: Artistic, fundraising, administration; Chris Yang: Artistic.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35989,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Fifteen actors with zAmya Theater will reach 1,400 audience members through seven performances at the Guthrie.

All of these goals were accomplished with the support from MRAC and other sources of income. We added 6 new cast members recruited from our workshops at the Salvation Army and Youthlink Shelter in Downtown Minneapolis. We updated content around the Vikings Stadium scene, affordable housing, accomplishments in ending homelessness in Minnesota and other areas on which we'd received input from downtown stakeholders. We had a team of design professionals who did outstanding work in lighting, sound, costume and set design bringing a real professional look to the production which was one of our goals. We had a keyboardist who added music including a show stopping church hymn. The cast rehearsed all summer long and by the time we performed we felt we were presenting our best possible work. The response was outstanding. We are so pleased and grateful for the support. It was a challenge to work in new material and to work with the professional design team as we'd not done that before. There were moments when we wondered if we'd taken on too much given our resources. It was more work than anticipated to adjust the show to accommodate that number of new characters and bodies on stage. However, in the end it all paid off in the gorgeous final product. The new cast members who are currently staying in shelters downtown added authenticity as well as a level of joy that can only come from performers on stage for the first time. The new set design enabled a thrust configuration which worked so well for the intimate nature of the show and also helped incorporate a new concept of everything being under construction. We had 1310 people attend the production (with total available capacity at 1365, that’s 96%!!). As articulated in the proposal we had a mix of downtown stakeholders, people experiencing homelessness and Guthrie subscribers. The Guthrie offered 120 outreach tickets for people experiencing homelessness and Saint Stephen's employed an outreach person to advertise these tickets, take reservations and hand them out in the lobby. We know that 100 of these tickets were used by folks currently in shelter and transitional housing. We were able to offer $10 transportation cards to help facilitate access. We distributed 80 of these cards. ASL and AD was offered and space reserved nightly for people with access needs. For the actors we provided meals before every show and epic levels of transportation support. We created and filled the role of ""backstage support"" for an actor with special needs and an actor who is blind. Audience discussions were held nightly and from the responses we know we had the impact we were seeking. We had a board where people could answer the question ""What does your heart in action look/feel like?"" and we received many suggestions large and small for ways our community can help end homelessness.",,24077,"Other, local or private",34077,,"Jim Nikolai, Chuck Webber, Kristina Skar, Karen Klein, Henry Bromelkamp, Stanley Brown, Christine Jones, Andrew Herring, Loretta Larkey, Sandra Larson, Jay McGregor, Ed Murphy, Katherine Schafer",0.00,"Saint Stephen's Human Services AKA zAmya Theater Project","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to support a two-week run of zAmya TheaterÆs Home Street Home Minneapolis at the GuthrieÆs Dowling Studio in September 2016.

Overall, we believe we achieved the artistic goals for this project. The final product follows closely to the description originally laid out in the grant proposal. We created an all-female production in an imagined future following the fall of civilization that was very beautifully realized with movement, music and shadow puppetry. We have been honing our ensemble creation process for 12 years now, and it worked very well in generating the material for this show. Two of our performers and our stage manager had never worked on an ensemble-created piece before, and our Project Lead had never been in charge of a project before; but they were able to slip right into Sandbox's creation process with very few hitches. The biggest challenge of this process was in constructing a play without a direct reference. Our previous shows have usually been based on an older story, book or historical incident. In this case, we were more or less cutting the world of the play from whole cloth. This affected our research process by forcing us to do more speculative imagination than we would normally have liked. It also made structuring the play a bit more difficult, as there was no previous story to model the show on, and we had no one person in the ensemble who could take charge of the script with an eye toward playwriting. In future projects, we would like to have more of the design elements in place much earlier in the creation process so that the performers would have more time to create the show with them in mind. We would also like to make sure that we have more time in the performance space to work out technical elements before the show opens. We have also decided that we should have one member of the creation ensemble be someone who fulfills a role more as a playwright, so that the finished script can be as cohesive and beautiful as the design and movement elements, and so that more story beats and plot points can be decided before rehearsals begins and the cast fleshes them out. We have not yet had time to collate and process all of the audience surveys distributed during the run of the show, but, from casual observation, the age/type/ethnicity of the audience seems to have been what we expected. However, the overall number of attendees was much lower than had been planned for, despite putting extra efforts into marketing to a wider audience than we have for past shows. For all of our shows for 2016, Sandbox has made a conscious effort to diversify the artists involved in our shows, both on stage and off. For this project, we specifically sought out artists of color to fulfill roles not already being performed by the permanent members of our company. 1/3 of our performers were non-white. However, this increase in diversity on the stage does not necessarily seem to have translated into increased diversity in our audiences. From a casual observation, the racial and ethnic makeup of those audiences has not changed from previous shows. This show was also important for increasing the diversity of meaningful roles for women in theater. All of the performers on stage, as well as the director and 2/3 of the design team were women. From conversations with audience members and feedback in audience surveys, it was apparent that women in the audience were appreciative of and empowered by this presentation. Again, this does not appear to have changed the makeup of our audience. All performances were held at the Southern Theater, which is wheelchair accessible, and geographically accessible by bus, light rail and bicycle, and we provided an ASL-interpreted performance. For economic accessibility, we provided a ""Pay What You Can"" night, student and senior discounts and group discount rates. This show also had tickets distributed through the Hennepin County Library system's new Smartpass program, which provides free and reduced-rate tickets to library patrons. In the future, we would like to start marketing to targeted groups and organizations much earlier. Instead of focusing on marketing to a wide, general audience, we would like to identify specific groups and organizations that whose makeup and mission would lead them to be inclined toward the subject matter of the show itself. In this way, we hope to create personal relationships with these groups that will translate into increased attendance and more personal allegiance over time.",,5300,"Other, local or private",15300,,"Connie Rutledge, Angie Beckey, Katharine Meyer, Anna Decker, Paul Jones, Matthew Glover, Derek Lee Miller",0.00,"Sandbox Theatre","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for 600 Years, an ensemble created theater piece told through silhouette, gesture, expressive physicality, sound and oral narrative.

We also met our goal of serving over 1,200 audience members at the Friday showcases as well as having over 40 staff members who taught at our programs. We were able to make our project open and accessible to a diverse group of participants. We were able to offer financial aid to 21% of campers and did not have to turn any participant away due to finances. Our program was also open to participants of all abilities. Roughly 55% of our participants had never played their instrument before camp and they were all able to successfully write and perform a song. We have been putting very intentional work towards making our program open and accessible to students of all racial and ethnic makeup. This year, that included a racial diversity training for all staff members that was presented by YWCA. We also tried to put advertisements in as many diverse media outlets (newsletters, social media, Radio K, Women’s Press) to ensure we were reaching all communities. This year, the racial makeup of our participants (as self-identified on their registration) was, 65% White, 5% Multi-Racial, 5% Asian/Pacific Islander, 4% Hispanic or Latino, 4% Black/African American, 1% American Native/Alaskan Native, 16% Other or Unknown. We are working on several strategies to further increase our outreach and accessibility to women and girls of color. New this year, we expanded our programming language to be inclusive to students who identify as female, gender non-conforming, genderqueer and trans. This made the program more inclusive and safe for a diverse group of students, especially for students who identify as part of the LGBTQIA community. In order to accommodate students of all identities, we talked about gender pronouns with the campers and had every camper write their gender pronouns on their name tags.

Six Families hopes to maintain an average audience size of (at least) 50 listeners for each event. For each workshop and performance Six Families will do a head count in order to track attendance. To evaluate the effectiveness of the workshops and performances regarding both audience members and performers Six Families will survey audience/participants/artists at each event with an accompanying post-performance interview with each lead artist in each performance.","As a result of this project Six Families established two new partnerships with organizations in the community. Additionally, Six Families supported 4 new collaborative teams of filmmakers and composers and contracted thirteen artists that were new to collaborating with the collective. Several of these artists have made plans to work with the Six Families in the future. In broad terms, we certainly achieved our artistic goals. We presented three events that fulfilled our goals of freedom from standard genres and developing unique formats and themes. In so doing, we supported emerging musicians seeking non-traditional performance opportunities. Our audiences were therefore able to benefit from positive experiences with creative music. To address our goals more specifically, and speak to strengths and challenges, each of our three events will be summarized below: “Solos”: This event achieved its goal of including Issam Rafea, Maja Radovanlija, and Matt Rahaim in an unconventional performance setting at the Omega Collective House in Minneapolis. It also expanded to include a second performance featuring Rafea and guitarist Chris Cunningham at the Khyber Pass Cafe in St Paul, and a workshop with Rafea co-sponsored and hosted by Mizna, and Arab arts organization in St Paul. While our initial plan to have Rafea, Radovanlija, and Rahaim perform a new work together did not come to pass, both performances and the workshop emphasized new collaborative groups. The concert at Khyber Pass Cafe featured spontaneous composition between Rafea and Cunningham. The Omega House performance and Mizna workshop featured new collaborations between Six Families members, local musicians, and featured soloists. While outreach to refugees proved insurmountably challenging, our efforts led to a new partnership with Mizna. “Tinkerfest”: This event achieved its central goals of bringing electronic music and instrument building to a diverse group of youth in an accessible and interactive way. It also achieved its goal of allowing youth to perform using hand-built instruments and electronics alongside older Twin Cities musicians (Mitch Stahlmann and Beatrix Jar). Its ability to empower youth to work creatively using low-cost and “found” electronics to make sounds proved to be an incredible strength. The challenges inherent in working within schools, notably scheduling, space acquisition, and promotion to students, were met with gusto. “Film”: This event achieved its goal of pairing sound and moving-image artists to create unique works not limited by genre. The end result was a diverse array of works including digital media, antique film projection, and live performance that were complimentary in surprising ways. There were many logistical, technical, and artistic challenges in presenting such a program, and the end result was perhaps a bit more heterogeneous than intended. However, we succeeded in providing artists and audience a positive opportunity to engage with novel and provocative intersections of sound and image. In summary, though the scope of some original ideas had to be refined, and some details altered, in order to bring together such a wide-ranging season, the breadth of our vision made for a special, unconventional series. We will learn from the challenges we faced, but would not change anything fundamental about our process. Six Families succeeded in working with several new musicians throughout the season, strengthening our relationships with previous season collaborators, and consistently meeting our new and recurring audience attendance goals. We ended up working closely with high school students through TinkerFest, which was not included in our original proposal. During the workshops at the High School for the Recording Arts we worked with anywhere from 10-20 students each day of the 5-day workshop. The final performance reached ~40 staff and students. While we did not end up reaching refugee communities in a much as we had hoped we did forge a significant bond with Mizna, which we will certainly take advantage of in the future. There will always be a need to strive for more diversity in our audiences, but this year's projects artist/audience diversity significantly surpassed previous years, thanks mostly in part to the funds received from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. We will cherish and cultivate the bonds established this year, which will inevitably lead to wider and broader reach.",,2350,"Other, local or private",7050,,"Toby Ramaswamy, Noah Ophoven-Baldwin, Tara Loeper, Cole Pulice, Adam Zahller, Mark Engelmann, Mark Mahoney, Alia Jeraj, Mitchel Stahlman, Patrick Marschke",0.00,"Six Families","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for a season of events including three performances featuring non-traditional music programming that bridges genres and disciplines, as well as a series of related workshops.

Participants in the classes will reach deeper levels of engagement with Somali culture through art study; weaving students will end the class series with an in-progress piece of weaving to work on at home; gabay students will end class with a fully memorized poem; and dance class participants will perform the dances they've learned","Weaving: The first session took place at Franklin Library in Minneapolis in February-March, and the second session took place at Skyline Tower in St Paul in August-September. We chose these locations as gathering places for members of the Twin Cities' Somali community, where people might stumble upon the classes and choose to check them out. This approach was successful, but we would like to continue to deepen our engagement of Somali youth specifically. In the future, we will offer classes that are separate for Somali youth and non-Somalis, because feedback indicated that Somali youth felt more ownership of spaces that were specifically for them. We would also like to continue to improve in regards to student retention, so they can gain deeper understanding of the craft. In the future, we will likely shorten each class session and also target activities to spaces that cater to more specific demographics, to increase a collective accountability for finishing the class. Finally, Cultural Interpreter/Education Coordinator Amina’s role in the class was also part of the program’s mission, as Amina is herself a young Somali-American adult interested in studying her own culture, and the class offered her a unique opportunity to engage deeply with elder women teachers and study a traditional art form. Dance: This program engaged a phenomenal group of Somali-American teens and young adults. These participants exceeded our expectations for their commitment, and established a model for future youth programming at the Museum. Participants made significant sacrifices to participate in the Dance Troupe, including one student who ended a romantic relationship in favor of focusing on dance study. In addition, the participants created a space for themselves to call the Somali Museum home. Several Dance participants now come to the Somali Museum most days after school, as a space to do their homework immersed in their culture. Other participants have testified that participation in the Dance Troupe has kept them away from trouble and bad influences. One more story-- Although it is not covered in this grant, it also bears mentioning that this year the Dance Troupe was invited to perform in Grand Forks, North Dakota as part of the African Arts Arena annual showcase, as well as in Washington, DC at a gala event of the organization Islamic Relief USA. It was a great honor for these youth to represent their community through their art. Poetry: Although we advertised the class as for those who already speak, read, and write Somali, several participants attended hoping to actually increase their knowledge of Somali language. This is an important demographic for us to offer resources to, but unfortunately limited the ability of this program to offer high-quality arts programming for participants who came seeking poetry study. We will work to be extremely clear in marketing in the future about the ability levels required to attend programs. Sixteen young adults performed as the Somali Museum Dance Troupe, the Twin Cities’ premier Somali folk dance ensemble. Weaving classes offered 112 participants a transformative experience in which their knowledge of Somali culture was deepened through immersive study with teaching artists.",,3960,"Other, local or private",13960,,"Said Salah Ahmed, Abshir Isse, Busad Ali Kheyre, Asha Hibad, Mohamed Ahmed Salad, Faisal Deri, Abdulfatah Mohamed, Yassin Dualeh, Mohamoud Abdullahi Mohamed",0.00,"Somali Artifact and Cultural Museum AKA The Somali Museum of Minnesota","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Learning",,"Funding for classes in the arts of nomadic finger-weaving, oral poetry, and dance in cultural immersion settings for Somali-American youth.

Most of our participants were home-bound and many were also wheelchair-bound or walker-bound. Our success reaching most of those residents who were physically capable of attending was in large part due to an enthusiastic staff in each facility and an equally enthusiastic word-of-mouth promotion among those residents able to remember us from day to day. In both facilities, we achieved our targeted numbers, which had been established with the prior input of staff based on their knowledge of the residents. Staff was extremely good about coordinating schedules, reminding participants, and attending themselves in a support function. At Little Sisters, sessions were preceded by an ice cream social that certainly didn't hurt attendance. Also, during the ice cream socials, a 96-year-old resident played piano to add music to the event and to get participants more in the mood to sing. Schedules were more fluid at Sholom Homes, where better finances made more events outside ours possible, and as a result we had occasional issues with conflicts of events or schedule changes that were not as well coordinated by the facility's staff as they should have been, but this was only occasionally and it did not cause too much disruption. On the question of diversity, since participation was nearly 100%, we achieved as much diversity as possible.

We will evaluate our anticipated outcomes through a comprehensive audience/participant count, audience feedback forms, and informal post-show reception. Post-project we will also hold a series of wrap-up meetings with the cast, our dramaturgical team, and our advisory committee to talk about strengths and weaknesses, best practices, artistic and aesthetic questions and opinions, and next steps, which will help provide closure for the project as well as a deepened context in which SuperGroup can continue to make new performance work.","PEOPLE I KNOW: engaged 11 working artists from at least 7 different artistic disciplines, with a combined 300+ years of artistic experience. It also surpassed our goal of reaching an audience of 150, by over 50%, reaching 230+ audience members. Roughly 30% of the audience had never attended a SuperGroup show before, which is exciting for a small experimental performance company. We are pleased to report that we feel we successfully accomplished the goals we outlined in our application through the making, rehearsing, and performing of PEOPLE I KNOW: We designed the show and the space to allow audience members a different perspective on viewing performance in general and specifically at the Red Eye. The audience was placed very close to the performance, just a few feet away from the performers, forcing intimacy. This proximity also prevented any kind of broad visual perspective on the work, which meant audience members had to make very conscious choices about where to look and when. In feedback with the audience we found that this arrangement was sometimes freeing and sometimes frustrating or fatiguing, but seemed to really encourage critical thinking about audience agency, what performers drew attention when and why, and the pleasure, awkwardness, and complexity of getting to experience performers bodies up close. We arranged a diverse cast of performers from many different performance disciplines. It was exciting, and very challenging at times, as lead artists to try to figure out the best ways to translate our aesthetics and artistic desires to such a varied group of people. We found that language that might work for one performer, would absolutely confuse another. We all had patience around this and eventually found ways to build common ground and/or at times let go of everyone needing to be on the exact same page. For example, one of our performers who works in representational and visual portraiture eventually found their way into the work by comparing it to abstract painting. By viewing the performance as a live, three dimensional abstract painting, they were able to find a logic that allowed them to relax into the performance of it. Along these lines, if we could have done something different it would have been to lengthen our timeline. Though the show by our standards was beautiful and compelling and accomplished, we would have loved more rehearsal time to really hone certain sections, and to develop more directorial and structural strategies that worked for the whole group. One of the most profound moments of the process was coming to tech rehearsal the day after the presidential election. Everyone was scared and confused about the potential of the new political shift. After rehearsing for almost a year together, there was a level of trust within the group that allowed us to be together and support each other and find strength and comfort in making art together. There was a real sense of intergenerational and interdisciplinary respect, as well as mutual mentorship, and a building of understanding perspectives outside our own. In the words of our board op (the youngest member of our team, still in college) ""I'm grateful to have had this [show] to go back to during the past couple CRAZY weeks, and to sit with you all after the election. I think formative is something you sense later, but this felt like it."" We feel successful in the communities that PEOPLE I KNOW: was able to reach. We had over 230 audience members over 7 performances and around 30% of them were people who had never before seen a SuperGroup show. We consider this a great accomplishment, especially since we have a small but very dedicated following and our work is not so easily explained or contextualized. In our post show surveys, audience members had an age range from 18-69, and identified in many ways including: gay, Jewish, queer, parent, artist, person of color, sensualist, white, Christian, able-bodied, Improvisor, Environmentalist, Quaker, grandparent, somatic educator, food lover, trans, plant-enthusiast, early-riser, etc. We feel that we were quite successful in drawing a diverse community of people into the project, and that in great part was possible because of the diverse cast of artists who agreed to work with us. Each cast member was able to draw in their particular communities of family, friends, and colleagues reaching a much broader audience than SuperGroup alone has access to. That being said, we believe there are always opportunities to outreach to new and broader communities in the future and will continue to look for ways to connect our work to people beyond our loyal base. We promoted and advertised the work on various online platforms (Facebook, Instagram, dancemn.org, MNplaylist, etc.) and in print. The project was highlighted in the Star Tribune and City Pages, and was written about on two local performance blogs. The performance took place at ADA accessible Red Eye Theater in the centrally located neighborhood of Loring Park in Minneapolis very close to many public transportation options. We had a sliding scale ticket prices ranging from $10-$26 dollars which included all fees so there were no hidden costs for attendees. We also had a well-publicized ""no one turned away for lack of funds"" policy if ticket prices we're a financial barrier to people. Tickets were available online, by phone, and in person and we had a flexibility in our space to never turn an audience member away. We had an opening night and closing night reception for artists and audience members, providing complementary food and drink in a fun casual atmosphere. We also made a point to stay after each performance to greet and talk with audience.

We will keep participation counts for all events, tracking numbers of artists, youth, and adult learners attending. We will conduct participant surveys in conjunction with all workshops and apprenticeships, and gather written feedback from panel discussions and community meet-ups.","We grossly underestimated our reach in all cases. We had originally projected to work with 30 artists, but we quickly realized we needed to draw from a wider, more diverse pool of artists for our Panel Discussions and Community Meet-Ups if we were to equitably engage with the issues and communities for which we were holding space. Additionally, our Youth Workshops, originally slated to be taught by four pairs of artists, quickly became much larger endeavors as the needs of the schools and youth camp clarified, and more teaching artists were needed to maintain our good teacher-learner ratios and more representative exposure of both the kinds of art practiced in our community and also the demographics of the people practicing it (we finished at 54 artists engaged instead of our projected 30). We had originally planned for our Youth Workshops to engage with groups of 20 students each, but in discussions with the schools, we quickly found the need to engage with far more students and adapted to that. We entered multiple classrooms and gave professional performances to large numbers of students which were then used as jumping-off points for further engagement and learning (we finished at 1296 youth learners instead of our projected 80). We had projected that participation for our Adult Workshops would average 75% (up from 60% in our first 2 years). However, our workshops all were either 90% full or sold out, and participation in our Discussions and Meet-Ups nearly doubled from previous years! We account this to a more aggressively spreading the word through social media, a better organized newsletter, a more established presence, but perhaps most of all to an outreach effort rooted in going directly to communities that are often overlooked or sidelined and building intentional, two-way relationships. That approach also informed our outreach in working with teaching artists, specifically seeking out artists who are almost never given a public face, either because of who they are or what they do. Our very affordable prices were combined with an aggressive scholarship policy, trading a massive discount in exchange for ""helping set up and load out with the instructors"" (or, in other words, pay less for additional instruction time), and light food and drink provided on-site. This helped alleviate a lot of the traditional barriers preventing access to the arts, which was precisely our main goal as regards community. Of our teaching artists, more than half were women. The Asian-American, African-American and Latinx communities were represented among the teaching artists. This representation was important given the large numbers of women and people of color among our participants, especially our youth participants. Both our Apprentices were new to the technical theatre. One is a Latinx musician and the other a Hispanic visual artist, both of whom intend to use their new skills to support communities traditional theatre typically does not interact with. Technical Tools of the Trade held 8 workshops, 4 panels, 4 community meet-ups, and organized 2 apprenticeships. We served 1296 youth learners, 181 adult learners, and 54 artists.

Artist surveys indicated the experience was positive and they would work with Theatre Unbound again. Audience count from box office records. Artist feedback through surveys and conversation.","256 people attended. Artists indicated the show was a good opportunity for them and they enjoyed working on a team of predominantly women. Our artistic goal was “to create a production that does justice to the ferocious comic energy of the script, and that appeals to both liberal and conservative audience members.” We feel our production of The Taming achieved this goal. Jill Shafer of Cherry and Spoon blog praised its “political satire, humor and wackiness.” Art Dorman of Talkin Broadway noted its “exaggerated, winking energy” and its ability to rock his usual political stance: “My own bias usually favors the liberal in a policy duel—not this time.” Audience members called it “timely and relevant.” Wide-ranging Twin Cities theatregoer Scott Pakudaitis included it in his list of favorites from 2016. The main challenge of our process for this show was that we were unable to hire a contract production manager early enough, so production manager duties were split among artistic director Stacey Poirier, executive director Anne Bertram, and technical director Brittany Pooladian. On occasion, responsibilities were not clear and efforts were duplicated or missed, for instance when both Ms. Poirier and Ms. Bertram brought artist contracts to the first read-through. In the past, we have given stage managers the responsibility for scheduling production meetings. The Taming’s design team had unusually hectic schedules, and when the Stage Manager was unable to find a time that all designers could attend, no one made the call to go ahead with the meeting. Consequently, only one in-person production meeting was held. Designers felt they were somewhat out of the loop as to the director’s intentions. As a result of this experience, we have made scheduling production meetings the responsibility of the production manager, with the mandate to hold production meetings if most designers can attend. (We have hired a salaried part-time production manager for the 2017-18 season.) Some artistic choices didn’t work for everyone. The theatre at SteppingStone is a proscenium arch with a red velvet grand drape, and the director chose to close and open the curtains for scene transitions, in keeping with the over-the-top theatrical tone of the script. Some audience members felt that the time it took for the curtains hurt the pacing of the show. Others felt that the performers had not mastered the Southern accents that were used (the characters are Georgians). For future productions where accents are important, we will budget for substantial help from a dialect coach. A secondary goal was to give women performers the chance to hone their skills at comedy, and we feel we succeeded here. As actor Nissa Nordland says, “I loved the challenge of being Katherine and George Washington and Martha and Dolly…this was a great opportunity for a female character actor to show their stuff. THANK YOU SO MUCH.” We serve two communities, artists and audience. Our goal for our artist community was to provide employment for 11 artists. We succeeded at this. With our audience community, we intended to attract 550 people, and attracted only 256. In part, we overestimated people’s appetite for a light-hearted look at politics in the fall of 2016. Our lack of success in attracting audience members has prompted us to learn more about our audience and what they value about Theatre Unbound. With the help of staff at Arts Midwest, where we were attending the ArtsLab development program this winter, we designed a set of questions for regular TU audience members. Board members were able to connect with a couple of audience members to ask these questions by phone. In the interests of getting a wider response, board member Danielle Schreppel, a Marketing Strategist with 3M, adapted the survey questions into an online questionnaire. We sent out this survey in a newsletter after the Taming, but made the mistake of including it as a second paragraph after other material – it got somewhat buried. Response was light and did not give us any substantive information. In the next couple of weeks, we will be sending the survey out again with a newsletter entirely to itself. Our actual Populations Benefitting did not include as many older adults as we anticipated. They were present, but according to audience surveys made up only 21% of the whole. The largest single group was adults 25-34, which was a bit unusual for us. We attribute this to the fact that most of the artists involved with the show were in this age bracket. Unsurprisingly, artists tend to attract audience members who are like them. As regards ethnic diversity, all project artists for The Taming were white, as were the majority of the audience members. We have made a commitment to employ artists of color on every Theatre Unbound production going forward. In terms of gender diversity, 60% of our audience identified as women, which is typical for US theatre audiences. The remainder identified as men or as trans*. In terms of accessibility, we stationed ushers at the wheelchair accessible entrance to assist patrons who were unable or disinclined to enter the theatre through the large flight of steps in front. We provided one audio described performance, and one patron with low vision used the service.",,7600,"Other, local or private",17600,,"Anne Bertram, Kathy Blegen-Huntley, Barbara Davis, JoAnn Fernandez, Stacey Poirier, Danielle Schreppel, Katharine Tinucci, Barb Van Vreede",0.00,"Theatre Unbound, Inc.

In two days, about 1300 audience members came to watch our shows. The audience gave a lot of good comments to Twin Cities Chinese Dance Center students’ performance. It is the first time all 400 tickets of days show were sold out by O' Shaughnessy. More Minnesotans attended our arts activities. Sally Tu came from St Cloud and joined Sunday shows. The annual production of 2017 Rooster Chinese New Year was so successfully. About 1300 audiences attended two days show. Our students after a yearlong learning and training, they performed 9 different ethnic dances, delivered the authentic Chinese culture of Art. They performed in solo, trio and group dances format. Twin Cities Chinese Dance Center is the only arts group to perform the variety Chinese folks and ethnic dance programs in this celebration season. On the stage, they performed well in reflecting what the features of the ethnic dance compare with other dances, what is the typical movement of the essential concept of one specific ethnic, in the manner of the arts performance, they told the audiences that core belief and spirit in Chinese dance movements for each program in ethnic, modern and classic dance formats. Our students were so excited in costumes with the lighting and music, they did not simply repeat what they learned from the classrooms, and they paid attention to deliver the characters of the ethnic/traditional dances. It is time again we use moving and video clips controlled by programming on the back screen, dynamic fireworks, and blowing flags, children cartons, etc. gave the strong vision impact to the audience. Most words we heard from the audience were “Amazing!” Our students made progress and have enriched their performance integrated dance skills, culture features, and their personal intelligence successfully. Ingrid Yelkin sent an email to Twin Cities Chinese Dance Center board: Wow! Joy of Dance VIII, we attended the Chinese New Year celebration on Sunday, my sons and I learned so much! The performers were impressive. I am reaching out to see if your dance group would be interested in participating at the Celebration of Cultures at the Countryside Elementary School in Edina. There is an issue as of last year, the lighting in O’Shaughnessy is showing they still not being able to match our vision requirement; they have limited light colors available now, cannot provide wider range of the light colors, so we need pay more attention in selecting the costumes’ colors to make sure we can maximum the light and color vision effecting to the audiences. This activity was planned to celebrate Chinese New Year, we mainly serve to Asian and Chinese communities in twin cities. However, more other race people called for buying tickets to attend our performance. There were about 1100 people attended our shows, and market share remained in stable in Chinese communities since the qualities of our shows have built up. Many audiences have watched our show more than twice. We think from the large view point, we brought Chinese culture to the residents of twin cities even though it is a small part of Minnesota culture. In our shows, we added some other culture components, our Mexican youth students performed Latin dance, and all audience gave the huge applause to the young artists. We selected O’Shaughnessy as the place of our show project. It is wheelchair accessible as well as free parking sport to attended audiences. In our brochure, we print wheelchair accessible sign, we wrote both English and Chinese to introduce our artists and program details, so the audiences know what the dance was about for. As we stated earlier, we sent our postcard to community and asked them to join us. We give about 10% free tickets to public schools, foundations, arts groups, and low income families.

Young Dance Guest Artist in Residence, Brian Evans, worked with 75 dancers in classes, company rehearsals and outreach workshops. Through Sights and Sound Bites, the Young Dance company explored dance through a lens of social justice. Choreographic residencies with Ananya Chatterjea, Brian Evans and Elizabeth Johnson, a partnership with Semilla Center for Healing and the Arts, workshops with H. Adam Harris and service projects designed and implemented by Young Dance company members all shone light on issues of accessibility, equity, and justice facing the dancers in their lives and communities. A Young Dance parent commented that their daughter, age 10, was very anxious, in the fall, and was uncomfortable discussing the election and issues in the local and national dialogue. As the year progressed she grew more comfortable discussing concerns and asserting her own values through actions. They attributed her evolution to the opportunities she had at Young Dance to discuss and move with others as they explored fear and hope, ideas and actions. Though this lens was not entirely new to Young Dance, staff and dancers alike deepened our understanding of equity and of social justice structures and practice. Dancers voiced their passions through choreography, whether it was their own or in the work of professional artists. Dancers acknowledged the difference they can make simply by coming together as a group in support of others, and took the initiative to organize for service projects and public demonstrations. However, both staff and dancers ended the season with a desire to go deeper, to promote social justice through our art making, to provide dance opportunities for others, both within Young Dance (class participants) and in the larger community. Working with multiple guest artists provided a myriad of approaches to social justice through dance. Dr. Chatterjea coached the dancers in declaring their fears, hopes, convictions and putting the commitment of their emotions into the dance. Mr. Evans facilitated community art making processes in which each dancers contributed ideas and the collective group found ways to voice them. Ms. Johnson enriched the Young Dance/Semilla collaboration with creative explorations of fear and bravery, isolation and community. The work with guest artists informed the artistic process of Young Dance staff, Pick and Jones, both of whom pushed into new territories in work they created for the Young Dance company. A framework of social justice permeated rehearsals and classes where we reflected upon who held power as a facilitator and ways that creative processes and learning environments supported inclusion and/or exclusion. Though artists, professional and youth, were passionate about the work created this year, we were challenged with having enough rehearsal time to achieve a consistent high quality with all the dances. As we look towards future seasons, we are mindful of trying to take on an appropriate amount of work to create a high quality experience that engages artists and audiences alike. Our commitment to a process at an intersection with social justice led to a deep investigation of who we each are as individuals and as a community. From a demographic explanation, the community would likely be very close to how it was defined in our proposal. However, the diversity of the Young Dance community revealed itself in ways that we didn't know going into this process. At rehearsals and in classes we engaged in dance activities around identity, inclusion, group awareness and support. This led to an environment where dancers felt safe revealing more invisible aspects of their identity, such as gender fluidity, sexuality, disabilities that are not obvious, and ways their family histories impact their sense of identity. One of the most significant successes in the area of community of this project was creating an environment in which people could engage their discomfort and grow as individuals and as a community. Partnering with Semilla Center for Healing and the Arts allowed us to engage with their community, a Phillips neighborhood based community. Though the actual rehearsal process only lasted two weeks, and took place in May, we began meeting with Semilla “youth leaders” in the fall, to create the vision of the project. We had hoped that an equal number of participants from Young Dance and Semilla would take part, but we had 5 Semilla participants and 10 Young Dance participants. Upon reflection, the director of Semilla suggested that it is difficult to recruit consistent participants during school, and a future project may work better for them in the summer. We do have plans to come together and perform the final project one more time in July at Open Streets. The 5 Semilla participants were Latina and African-American. The project with Semilla provided participants with important challenges of community building in the arts. Over the course of the process, though the participants from each community shared generously and openly with each other when creating together, they tended to stick to their own social groups on breaks. The performance itself was planned with times for the audience to meet each each other, walking form sight to sight they were given tasks to talk to someone they didn't’ already know and begin to build connections. The process of planning these interactions for the performance showed the youth participants that they needed also to do that work. All felt like the two-week rehearsal process was a beginning, a first step, significant only if we continue to build understanding and connections. We are continuing conversations with Semilla about how to build upon this partnership as well as developing partnerships with other community organizations with these lessons in mind.",,40876,"Other, local or private",50876,,"Laura Busian, Kimberly Skalbeck, Jonathan Morris, Rachel Gagliardi, Jess Rehbein, Megan Thimmesch, Aubrey Donisch",0.00,"Young Dance, Inc.

Participants will demonstrate their learning in performances, introducing audiences to integrated dance at these five different venues. We will track attendance in our classes; teachers will document concepts covered in classes and articulate how those concepts are demonstrated through performance; and each class will culminate in a public showing.","Through All Abilities Dancing, Young Dance branches out in the exploration of dance, and in the diversity of the individuals who participate in the classes and come to the performances. The 15-20 participants in the All Abilities Dancing Level Two class are individuals with and without disabilities, ranging in age from 12 – 50, (majority between 12-22), 40% male, and no single racial group is a majority. This is a model of diversity we would like to emulate throughout our organization. We look to the ways that we do outreach, engage the community for feedback, develop curriculum and create partnerships with All Abilities Dancing to inform programming throughout Young Dance. We encountered different successes and challenges with the communities we reached through our partnerships. As mentioned above, the process of setting up classes at Hennepin County Home School took much longer than we anticipated, so we were not able to run as many classes as we had planned. However, the relationship that is now established is much deeper, with Young Dance staff better trained to teach the classes and HCHS staff have a more thorough understanding of the goals of the classes. Through this partnership we are currently poised to continue classes through the summer and next school year, with funding provided, in part, from Hennepin County. In addition to Dowling School, we were able to do after school classes at Marcy Open School, which has a significant populations of students on the autism spectrum. The dance specialist at Roosevelt High School felt that the Young Dance classes redefined, for her, how to approach dance with her population of students with Developmental and Cognitive delays. On her own, she has pursued more learning opportunities with Young Dance. In turn, her sense of arc over a semester, necessary for school, and her need to be responsive to state standards and evaluation are informing a more clear articulation of curriculum that Young Dance can use for all of our programming. We conducted classes with Lifeworks in the winter of 2016, however due to staffing shifts at both organizations, Young Dance and Lifeworks, the partnership did not resume in the spring and fall. This partnership had started in 2015 and was aligned with Lifeworks goal of integrating their clients into the community, bringing participants to classes that were off sight of their day center. However, holding classes off sight also presented challenges resulting in inconsistent attendance, arrival times and last minute cancellations. When Ms. Pick went on sabbatical, after one session of these classes, the temporary outreach coordinator evaluated that the inconsistencies drained our resources more than the classes benefitted our organization. Lifeworks also had a staffing shift, and the new staff coordinator was not especially interested in the dance programming. Without anyone championing the classes, they were not prioritized for the spring and fall schedule. 20 dancers, with and without disabilities, participated in intermediate-advanced learning opportunities in the Dance for All Abilities class while 60 participants, ages 5-40, were introduced to dance through ongoing classes and partnerships with community organizations.

Three goals are: 1) Challenge the students' intellect and their assumptions by engaging with difficult material 2) Expand worldview 3) Cultivate both compassion and confidence through collaboration across multiple boundaries. Students will also interact with and learn from visiting guest speakers and presenters from the Minneapolis theater scene who will both address the participants about the craft of acting and share exercises around acting, voice, and movement techniques through a workshop format. The students will see a professional Shakespeare production and enjoy a Q and A session with the actors. Finally, by hiring two professional Shakespearean teaching artists, Minnesota Shakes is able to provide the best training to the students and ensure growth and guidance. Success is defined by (1) Did the students enjoy themselves and feel proud of what they learned and shared? (2) Were they challenged theatrically and intellectually? (Most students will not seek a career in theater; however, the Shakespearean knowledge and confidence of stage acting will serve them throughout their lives.) (3) Did they grow through collaboration and benefit from the diversity and friendship of the other students? Since we also welcome a wide range of theatrical experience into the program, success for each student can be very different. As long as we encourage the type of success listed above, each student will have an opportunity to be challenged and express in a safe, non­-judgmental environment.

We hope to have similarly great feedback on this year's programs.The Minnesota Music Summit was conceived and designed as a result of our first Caravan du Nord, in response to evaluation, feedback and successes of that endeavor. As we enter our fourth year of the Minnesota Music Summit, we continue to build on the program based on artist and participant feedback. The Minnesota Music Coalition will continue to evaluate the success of this project both qualitatively and quantitatively. To track attendance, we will do both a head count and an email sign-in at the networking events and workshops. The Amsterdam staff track total number of concert attendees that come through the door. We will provide written surveys to participating artists after the Summit is over, a method that has worked well in the past. We will also measure the quality of the event through comments on our social media as well as through informal conversations and post-event meetings with Minnesota Music Coalition staff, Board and partnering organizations.","As we had hoped, this year's Minnesota Music Summit drew over 800 people who came from all over Minnesota, Wisconsin and Iowa.

Media Arts Apprenticeship Program offers young media artists’ valuable professional development activities through interacting with creative professionals of color, participating in increasingly challenging project assignments, and providing stipends for completed projects and the apprenticeship, which will build young artists’ artistic and professional skills and demonstrate the possibility of a arts as a viable career path. Media Arts Apprenticeship Program’s artistic goals are for young artists of color to develop a greater understanding of media arts as a career through practicing their proficiency in the craft in a professional setting of a documentary film production, increasing artistic quality and professional expectations, and comprehending more deeply the real-life application of arts techniques. The program and participants will be evaluated structured program quality assessment activities and processes such as surveys, interviews, monitoring, and other evaluation tools results of the evaluation will be used to make program adjustments, ensure proper implementation, and establish long-term program sustainability. We intent to share our results, outcomes and products with the community, funders, and the public to bring greater visibility to all involved in Media Arts Apprenticeship Program.

The Hmong are a distinct ethnic group with ancient roots in China, and began coming to Minnesota in 1975 as refugees from the destructive wars that had ravaged their homelands in Laos. Today, there are more than 66,000 Hmong in Minnesota, and the Twin Cities metro is home to the largest concentration of Hmong in America. Tragically, about one-third of Hmong Minnesotans live in poverty. For these reasons, more positive professional development activities such as Media Arts Apprenticeship Program are needed in the community. Media Arts Apprenticeship Program participants were young Hmong artists of color from low-income families with a strong interest in media arts (video, audio, etc.) or new media (Youtube, Instagram, etc.), and curious about exploring the arts as a profession, and were select for interest in the program and their cultural and linguistic understanding of the subject matter. Media Arts Apprenticeship Program was designed to engage young low-income emerging artists of color by providing apprenticeship opportunities, stipends, and a professional arts experience they otherwise may not have. Sharing the talents of creative professionals of color, while developing the capacity of emerging artists of color, helped to create and sustain art that speaks to and come from diverse communities. We also helped to create an understanding and cultural bridge for mainstream Minnesotans and others to better relate to the increasingly multicultural world around them. Media Arts Apprenticeship Program leaders and artists are diverse community members with extensive experience serving communities of color in Minnesota. We make it a point to employ artists of color from similar backgrounds as the young artists we serve. Also, the focus of Media Arts Apprenticeship Program was to provide aspiring media and new media artists of color professional development experiences, to address employment, educational, and other deficiencies. Moreover, the projects that the participants assisted in creating helped to shed light on the plight of the Hmong community as refugees in Minnesota. Lastly, through Media Arts Apprenticeship Program’s artist leadership development activities, young artists collected stories and input from Hmong community members and other stakeholders about relevant community issues, which was produced into media to be shared with the community, public and decision-makers. Media Arts Apprenticeship Program has been designed to eliminate most barriers to participation and be accessible to those who wish to get involved. We offered Media Arts Apprenticeship Program for free to participants since the program serves economically disadvantaged young artists of color. These benefits were announced to our partners and others when promoting the program. Furthermore, Media Arts Apprenticeship Program participants were paid stipends for completing media arts projects. We also provided access to media equipment, training, and mentorships, which are valuable resources for disadvantaged community members. When necessary, we also provided transportation assistance since we recognize this to be a significant barrier to participation for youths of color.

Our instructors served as role models for students seeking mentors with whom that could identify in self-expression. At all four schools, student participants were recruited by faculty in one way or another. The International Baccalaureate program of Patrick Henry High School is a small learning community of students of color that encourages life-long learning by students. Our work there helped fulfill the needs of the Theatre in the Context area of the syllabus. Students at LEAP ranged in age from 16 to 21.

At Avalon, we worked with staff-selected Humanities students in grades 6-8. At South High School, the student body includes African Americans, Caucasians, Asian Americans, Native Americans, and Latino Americans. The workshops drew from all of these groups.

Our outreach efforts were held at the community center and involved signing up participants and obtaining permission slips from parents and guardians. By holding the signup sessions after school we tried to make The Art Bus accessible to the entire youth population at Mount Airy. We used poster boards with pictures of the bus and specially designed signup sheets. These were posted on the community board and individuals at the front desk were available to provide materials and direct any questions to Beth Pacunas, Resident Initiatives Department at Saint Paul Public Housing and Ubax Ali, a Somali community center coordinator. The demographic makeup of Mount Airy Hi-Rise was an ideal fit for the population we wished to serve. Because of our community partnership with Saint Paul Public Schools, we were provided with valuable resources and contacts with Cultural Specialists in the Office of Family Engagement and Community Partnerships.

On-Ice Program presence improves downtown winter business traffic and increases gross sales for restaurants and bars, broadens the visitor population from areas outside White Bear Lake and expands city brand as a year-round destination and hub of arts activities. Artists and audiences alike will experience an expanded notion of the arts through participation. Participants are counted by volunteers located in the parking lot and on the ice. At the end of each day, numbers are compared and averaged to provide a reasonable estimate of attendees. Volunteers stationed near the entrance or inside the Welcome Shanty survey willing audience members about participation experience. Electronic version of the survey is also available online during the program. Artists are surveyed during the planning process and again after the program. Volunteers are surveyed after the program. Sponsors and businesses are asked about their experience and direct outcomes in one-on-one interviews after the event has ended.","Art Shanty Projects expands the notions of art and definitions of artist through mission goals demonstrating nearly 80% of audience members agree their ideas of art were changed by the engagement with communal public artwork in unpredictable spaces. With an aim to deepen impact on the city, over 75% of visitors were from outside the city. Nearly 8,500 people engaged with the On-Ice Program. The focus of the project is on both quality and process of artistic product as demonstrated by: Artists creating projects that push themselves creatively and engage the audience. Flexible project management allowing for the development and realization of an artist’s idea. Reverence for the lake environment and existing community while bringing a new use to a place that has an established relationship with patrons. Artist-audience engagement as essential to the success of the experience. Art Shanty Projects is able to achieve artistic goals by providing a challenging environment that stretches artists technically and conceptually—offering individuals the opportunity to create as a collective, organize multidisciplinary activities and complement each other's work. The project invites creativity, exploration and risk, while demanding an attention to place and environment. Working with over 130 artists, the festival included 20 shanties and 13 interactive performances and facilitated almost 8,500 community members to engage in the arts. Our simple application process encouraged creative people of all types to apply; bringing in almost 50 applications from teams of artists ranging from 1-30 people. Most of the participants consider themselves emerging artists, yet were able to successfully create interactive art that pushed themselves creatively and engaged audiences completely. Collaborations with other nonprofits led to donated materials which helped decrease out-of-pocket requirements to complete a feasible project. Leadership and site visits from the Artistic Director help provide guidance while cooperation with other presenting artists fostered flexible project management and collective development of artist ideas. Greater than 80% of surveyed artists felt involvement with the program provided them with additional opportunities and connections to the arts community. The leave no trace mandate ensured our presence left only footprints at our host location. Audience members cited affinity for the program stemmed from the program being a free, fun way to get outside during winter and become part of the art. While the process worked well, the stipend for artists is still appallingly low. It is Art Shanty Projects' plan to increase artist pay 20% year-over-year until adequate funds can be allocated to ensure artists are paid a livable wage for their projects. The On-Ice Program provides a free, vibrant creative opportunity for residents and businesses in our host community as well as visitors from the Twin Cities and surrounding metro area, Greater Minnesota and locations beyond our borders while maintaining reverence for existing on-ice communities through coordination with the City of White Bear Lake. The On-Ice Program brought almost 8,500 people to White Bear Lake during a time of year when recreational visitor population is at its lowest. Approximately 3/4 of audiences members were from outside the city; 6% of them heralding from other states (including a handful from outside the country)! Almost 60% of surveyed audience members were new to Art Shanty Projects and 60% of attendees typically participate in less than one arts event per month. The On-Ice Program not only provides a gateway into the arts, but exposes new people to White Bear Lake, a community seeking to improve downtown winter business traffic, broaden the visitor population and expand city brand as a year-round destination and hub of arts activities. Art Shanty Projects strives to address inclusiveness through greater outreach including: A commitment to free access to the project, open to everyone during daylight hours. Increased accessibility to those that may have physical barriers to participation. The organization allocated funds to hire a sign language interpreter and audio describer on select days of the project and advertised those days prominently in all media channels and through cross-promotional partners. We offered artist-designed and build kick-sleds (chair mounted to skis that can be pushed by volunteers) for use by those who have difficulties walking on the ice. Nonprofit partner, ArtCars/ArtBikes, supplied volunteer pedi-cab rides as on-ice transportation to those in need to help keep the shanties accessible. Art Shanty Projects saw a growth in audience numbers as a result of increased accessibility efforts, with over six deaf visitors using the American Sign Language interpreter services. Patrons anecdotally shared their gratitude for the efforts toward inclusion in social media. And other small arts organizations reached out to Art Shanty Projects management to seek guidance on actions to emulate efforts of improved accessibility to the arts.",,90000,"Other, local or private",100000,,"Monica Sheets, Marlaine Cox, Greg Mann, Caitlin Warner, Carolina Borja, Esther Callahan, Clover Earl, Sarah Shives, Lauren White, Scott Nortrom",0.00,"Art Shanty Projects","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to curate and present the 2017 Art Shanty Projects, a free four-week interactive exhibit of performance and visual art on frozen White Bear Lake.

The biggest groups each had 61 people; the smallest was 11. Counselors surveyed responded 100% positively to the questions we posed: did the kids engage with the games, was the concept of musical teamwork clearly conveyed, was the quality of performance high. We felt that we achieved our artistic goals, presenting high quality intimate concerts to an underserved population, kids 6-12 at Minneapolis Park Recreation Centers. Presented in the Rec centers all-purpose rooms, the children sat or lay on the carpet listening directly in front of the musicians, all with a clear view and clear perception of what music making entailed. We were especially happy with the total, and accurate, participation of the kids in the ""Identify Who Has the Melody?"" game, where they would stand when ""their team member"" had the ball (melody). We repeated that activity with a different piece after the first presentation. Other things we changed were the order - one piece was harder for the children to comprehend, so we put it further along and added a story about it so that that could better visualize ""Alligator Escalator"" (by John Adams). Challenges? Playing outside Lake Hiawatha Center in gale force winds; their designated room was too full of gear on the day we arrived. Concentration was not good in a couple cases due to the 100 degree heat of the afternoon. When we repeat this, we also will write up some basic expectations about listening to music for the counselors to convey prior to our arrival: we found some counselors prepared the children for the experience much better than others, and the children were especially receptive. Also when we repeat this experience, we will have different musicians talk with the children, not just one focal person, so as to more fully engage them with each instrument. Sunshine Concerts did reach our intended community, kids aged 6 - 12 and their parents, plus community members. Our intention was to reach kids, people of less economic means, and according to the musicians' and staff reports, we reached a significantly higher proportion of racially diverse people than in our concert season. Staging these concerts in the Rec Centers meant that not only were there day care kids in the concerts, but in two instances, many people voting nearby heard music and stopped in to enjoy the music as well. General public attendees found out thru our web-site, the Park and Recreation Board web-site, posters in the centers and in coffee shops nearby, thru Facebook, ours and theirs, and - this was especially helpful - e-letters sent out by the individual centers. Handicap accessibility to the centers allowed at least one child with multiple disabilities and oxygen to attend; he couldn't speak, but took the violinist's hand and kissed her afterwards. Because of the geographical spread of the centers, we played for all races and ethnicities served by the city parks. Feedback from centers included: Nokomis: ""one of the highlights of the summer. Our group has a hard time settling down and I was impressed by their engagement…and interaction with the musicians. The overall experience was fantastic."" Armatage: ""We'd love to have them back!""

We will work to gather zip codes or we will ask people to place a pin on a map to measure our geographic reach. We will also count audience members, survey participating artists and have a post-season debrief meeting with the organizing committee.","The underlying story in this project is about the residents of this scenic river valley being woken up to the arts in their midst. In the end, 203 people experienced the Pop-up Performances at Marine Art Fair, 120 at Abnet Farm and 93 (rain) at Afton Art in the Park. One audience member was overheard telling another, ""Hey, that's my neighbor"" as she pointed out Brian Wicklund. The artistic goals of ArtReach’s mobile art gallery and the Pop-up Performances extend the goals of the organization. Below the stated goal is a description of how the goal was achieved. Highlighting the work of artists who live and work in the Saint Croix Valley. The Pop-up Performances highlighted the work of musicians from Marine on St Croix and Stillwater, Minnesota. Brian Wicklund's first performance of the series was at the Marine Art Fair which is also a fundraiser for the village's fire department and EMT department of which he is an active volunteer. Blue Hazard includes musicians from Marine, Stillwater and beyond three of these musicians were students of Wicklund's. The artist selection was deliberate and in the end, ArtReach was able to introduce these musicians to their neighbors and others in the region. Wicklund performs frequently out of the area and Blue Hazard is an emerging group. In this way, we felt as if our goal of connecting audiences to St Croix Valley artists was achieved. Sharing the confluence of arts and nature that give the region its unique identity. The Mobile Art Gallery and the Pop-up Performances are based on the notion of finding ""artful ways to interact with the land"" and of finding surprising and delightful ways to present art in unexpected places. During the fall art fairs residents and visitors to the St. Croix Valley explore the area through the arts. However, ArtReach works to extend this message by building content that works at the confluence of art and nature. Connecting visitors to a sense of place and residents to a sense of home through the arts. People's arts experience was deepened through the Pop-up Performances because of the multi-sensory Sunday morning event. You could smell the fair's coffee booth and kettle korn stand. You could hear contemporary bluegrass from the temporary venue and you could see the bright graffiti ""STX"" on the back of the Mobile Art Gallery beckoning you from across the art fair. The first weekend (two performances and Instrument Petting Zoo) were very smooth, very well-received and very exciting. The planning team was overwhelmed with emotion after the long months of building, planning, anticipating, etc. to see it come together like a dream. The musicians were uber professionals and the sound system was ideal for the setting. The majority of the audience was passing by rather than sitting to enjoy the full performance. On the beautiful sunny day people lingered longer, but on the drizzly day this definitely impacted the audience numbers and their experience of the music. In both instances, we decided we should have set the chairs up more like a cafe (with small groupings) rather than rows. This would allow people to pop up and down more easily and would be a little less intimidating. I think it would be easy to add an instrument petting zoo to the end of each performance in the future, but it would be good to find a way to make this inviting to adults too. Our community can be described as a part rural/ part 3rd or 4th ring suburban community, with a small and growing population of minorities. As the center of our geography, Stillwater is often the hub of our programs, but we hosted the Pop-up performances at a farm just north of Stillwater, in Marine on St Croix and in Afton. These art fairs are popular because they do not happen in the Twin Cities. ArtReach successfully reached our intended audience by planning and implementing the Pop-up Performances at the Valley's fall art fairs. In this way, we had a bit of a built in audience and we could rely on our art fair partners to amplify our marketing about the new Mobile Art Gallery. We also attracted music lovers to the art fairs at a time of the weekend when the art fairs are a little slower. Our Pop-up performances drew very small children, the elderly and everyone in between. We attracted a larger number of young adults than we had expected in part because of our selection of Blue Hazard. Bicyclists dismounted to stand along the edges of the crowd at Marine and artists left their booths to join the audience if they could. It is difficult to know if our outreach efforts resulted in attendance by lower income residents. We could have purchased a mailing list to specifically reach out to this portion of our rural and semi-rural area. We received a lot of great press about the Mobile Art Gallery, the Pop-up Performances and the Instrument Petting Zoo, in this way we met our goals for communicating to the broadest possible public about these free events. Other communication pieces included a postcard mailed to ArtReach's list and distributed to public places in the Valley. We also distributed an electronic version of the postcard and posted flyers on bulletin boards in the area. Facebook updates were used to spread the word from ArtReach, but also from Brian Wicklund and from Blue Hazard. A Facebook event was created and we boosted the reach of a post with a paid ad. Overall we received 6433 impressions with 8 posts, an average of 804 impressions per post. At the last minute, we also had an inexpensive opportunity to promote fall events in the City Pages. Since the Pop-up Performances were part of the region's fall art fair season many people happened upon the events. In this way, the Mobile Art Gallery's performances provided an unexpected experience in a unique setting.",,4300,"Other, local or private",12900,,"Gary Kelsey, Greg Seitz, Jami Flanagan, Jay Higgins, Guillermo Cuellar, Lois Duffy, Margaret Pennings, Karen Johnston",0.00,"ArtReach Saint Croix","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the Mobile Art Gallery and Pop-up Performance project featuring fiddle master Brian Wicklund and emerging bluegrass musicians from the group Blue Hazard.

We wanted to include all age groups and different levels of ability to dance the complicated Balkan dances. We also envisaged some who would not want or could not dance but would enjoy watching the others. We succeeded in attracting all these categories, but we would like to have more teenagers and more people from Roseville. The reason that we could not attract more participants from them was that we were spread too thin and could not afford people to visit the local schools, and even the announcement in the Roseville Lutheran Church newsletter was not published because of change of editor and loss of connection. We could have reached out to more dance communities in the neighboring states, as we discovered existed and were willing to travel, in the process of organizing and execution of the project. We still had a wide range of diverse participants. In the classes we saw teenagers dancing together with octogenarians. For the concerts and food came whole families, from the babies to the grandparents, and we had at least six languages spoken during the project. Thanks to the grant we kept our prices at a minimum, and advertised volunteering opportunities for those who would like to trade some of their time for free classes and concerts. The venues were handicap accessible. We have successfully attracted diverse participants and audience but we would like to include more categories and plan to work harder to attract them mainly in the schools and the local higher educational institutions. 200 audience members attended two concerts where 70 dancers and musicians performed on stage.

We also used a short survey form to capture audience responses: 98% highly favorable. We have placed the form on our website to solicit additional responses from those who did not do so on site as well as sent it out to our email lists. Yes, we were able to achieve our artistic goals and in the case of the desired audience interaction and participation we think that we exceeded those goals. Each of the professional Master Storytellers did an excellent job of demonstrating the actual artistic quality of oral storytelling as an art form. Each audience gave enthusiastic responses to the artist's engaging performances. In a number of instances the adults appeared to be as ""caught up"" in the narratives the children were. It's a great feeling to see adults and children equally involved. It teaches children that adults can share their creativity and imagination together - without fear of the loss of their ""adult status."" What worked was the narratives and the interaction between professional performer and engaged audience participant. This is something that we always strive to achieve every year because it's a major part of oral storytelling. It's a visual demonstration of the imagination that the Tellers call upon from the audience participants. And it's often very spontaneous, creative and informative. It's part and parcel of the African form of storytelling. That is to say that in spite of how often a story is told or how many times it is heard, the difference is in the audience participation which ensures that the ""story"" is forever different! Each of the things that we have said are the strengths of our artistic process: evoking the imagination and imagery of the stories; involving the audience as participants in the actual narrative; including the audience participants' responses as part of the narrative and encouraging all to immerse themselves as part of the performance. Likewise the challenges are a direct result of what we strive to achieve. It's an emotional, high-energy, draining experience to see the audience for the first time and work hard to ensure that they accompany you on the narrative journey. The audience's involvement requires sincere work on the part of each Teller. That same response is what recharges each of us as well. At the end of each day, it's great to know that the audience came. It's even greater to know that they left feeling uplifted and informed. We were indeed successful in reaching our desired audiences. It was just as we had identified in our initial proposal. It was very diverse in terms of age, gender, socioeconomic status, ethnicity and ability.

Musician survey will show that 85% or more see artistic growth over the past four seasons (tenure of the current Music Director). The method for evaluating the concert attendees and paid guests will be via ticket count and box office revenues. The musician survey will be conducted online at the end of the season and will provide an opportunity for all members and substitutes to give input.","One of our proposed outcomes was having 1,500 concert attendees and 1,000 paid guests. We had 909 paid guests and 1,182 concert attendees. Our other outcome was to have 85% or more of the musicians see artistic growth over the past four years. Survey results indicated that 82% of the musicians were seeing growth. We reached a large number of young people and got them excited about classical music. The Bloomington Symphony Orchestra’s goals for this project were to present works of living composers as well as standard classics in order to maintain and stimulate interest in classical orchestral music. We feel that we achieved these goals this year by presenting four diverse subscription concerts, plus a side-by-side performance with students from the Bloomington High Schools’ string programs. One of our artistic challenges was choosing repertoire that stretched the musicians as individuals and as an ensemble. The repertoire for this project included well-known pieces like Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony and Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique. It also introduced lesser-known pieces like Shostakovich’s First Symphony, which is not performed frequently, as well as the world premiere performance of Grant Luhmann’s Flute Concerto. The orchestra was challenged by Manny Laureano’s uncommon interpretation of Symphonie Fantastique, and by learning the Flute Concerto, which had never been heard before! There was no recording of the Flute Concerto available because of the extended techniques the piece required. However, the musicians rose to the occasion during every artistic challenge, putting their best effort forward, to achieve a strong musical outcome. The Bloomington Symphony Orchestra also undertook a mighty challenge by presenting music from all of Richard Wagner’s Ring Cycle operas, in a concert featuring a cast of ten singers and a narrator. This repertoire was challenging from a language perspective (music with notes written in German, score with notes written in Italian), from a musical perspective and from a personal preparation perspective. This experience caused the musicians and Music Director to confront the importance of repertoire selection and personal and ensemble preparation. One way we will try to encourage personal practice in the future is by making the parts available on our private members-only website as early in the season a possible, so musicians can download and practice their parts earlier in the season. We hope that a small effort like this will motivate people to practice early and often, and make it easy for people to get the music or parts they need to do so. The Bloomington Symphony Orchestra’s community goals were to serve the audience, the City of Bloomington community and the musicians. We met all three of these goals. We served our audience by presenting diverse programs that were of interest to old and new audience members alike. Audience surveys told us that more familiar programs were more likely to make people want to attend our concerts and conversely, unfamiliar programs were not the reason people attended. In the future, we will strive to message our programs so that all concerts will be compelling to potential attendees. The City Bloomington and its businesses, schools and nonprofit organizations were impacted by our project through venue rental fees and supporting local workers. All venues were easy to locate, handicapped accessible, well-lit for ease in reading program notes, and offered generous, free parking for audience and musicians. According to concert surveys, about 25% of our audience lives in Bloomington. About 25% of our audience members indicated their intention to dine out in the City of Bloomington before or after a Bloomington Symphony Orchestra concert, which provided indirect income to local businesses. Our musicians were served by preparing quality, challenging repertoire. We had the chance to perform the Mozart Violin Concerto No. 4, under the baton – or rather, bow – of our concertmaster and soloist Michael Sutton. 80% of the musicians who completed the survey felt the 2016-17 season repertoire was enjoyable to play and appropriately challenging. We reached a very age diverse audience with our project. 60% of our audience self-identified as being 60 years of age or older. We distributed 130 free student tickets over the length of the project, which means 11% of our audience was made up of young people. We were able to serve not only our traditional older audience, but also a diverse group of young people, which was very exciting for us. In the area of accessibility, we had a busload of seniors from the Mount Olivet Lutheran Home in Minneapolis, who attended a concert. We also had a group of home-school students who attended a concert. We also worked with each of these groups to make sure it was accessible to them in terms of physical need (wheelchairs, walkers, etc.) and the opportunity to meet with the Music Director after the concert (home school group). We would like to increase our reach to both of these groups and will do so by making sure more groups know about our concerts and discounts we can offer to make attending more accessible to them. Another way we made our project accessible, was to players. We have one player who has Parkinson’s and needs some assistance to make it possible for her to play. Everything from helping her carry in a special chair, to allowing her to miss rehearsals when she was not well enough to attend, were important ways that we helped her to be able to play and contribute to the success of the Bloomington Symphony Orchestra.",,45580,"Other, local or private",55580,,"Rebecca Jyrkas, Brianna Wassink, Laila Stainbrook, Matthew Cummins, Charlotte Bartholomew, Kristin Brinkmann, Jenna Loeppke, Daniel Mollick, Brian Rule",0.00,"Bloomington Symphony Orchestra","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 2016 - 2017 season consisting of four public performances featuring symphonic repertoire and a collaborative concert with the Bloomington Jefferson and Kennedy High School Orchestras.

Results will be gathered via survey given to all program participant families.","In our survey, feedback was unanimous that all children gained knowledge in theater arts as a result of our theater educational program. This is a great success to our program. Every child should grow and the parents are seeing that result. In order for our program to feel successful, every child should experience personal growth within the range of skills we teach. Our goal is that every child feels a part of the whole production. Each child learns that every role within a production is important. We feel these goals were achieved. For example, there were a couple young boys (3rd graders) that were assigned the role of trumpeter. At first, they didn't feel it was a role. By production time, the trumpeters had 4 scenes and multiple blocking that needed to be used. This was in addition to the roles in the chorus. The boys came up to me, the choreographer, and said, ""This trumpeter role is really turning out to be a big deal."" This is one of many examples. As always, this is a strength in that we can do this for everyone in the cast. It is a challenge to find and deliver all these opportunities. Another challenge we faced was ensuring that the younger group, our Rising Stars, also felt a part of the whole production. Their show runs prior to the main show and they can feel isolated. They come and go at different times from the ""big"" kids. We did do some joint learning sessions, but think that next year we will incorporate more of those opportunities. Our Junior Director program worked better than the prior year. This year we assigned the Junior Directors to shadow different production personnel. Most Junior Directors had a primary assignment and a secondary assignment. That allowed for them to learn multiple facets of the show in depth. It also helped to cover absences. At show time we put the Junior Directors in teams of 2. They were each assigned an area to work the shows in those teams. We had a Stage Left a Stage Right and an Audience Stage team. The helpers worked well to facilitate all the children and their props. We feel that this was very successful and will expand upon it next year. We worked hard to advertise our program throughout the community. We utilized print and social media. We used an ASL interpreter. We had a free preview night. Our preview night was attended, but we hope to have more attend in future years. We were able to accommodate some children with special sensory needs. We had some senior community members attend. A group that wanted to attend from the local assisted living facility was unable to attend due to last minute transportation challenges. Overall, our attendance numbers were similar to prior years. This was the first year we sold tickets, but our attendance didn't change. We kept ticket prices low in order to make it accessible and that strategy seemed successful. Even with those successes, we are working to include more groups in our preview night experience. We have already arranged for someone to head a committee to work on this - specifically targeting the special needs community. In addition, we are increasing our network of assisted living homes and branching further outside of Forest Lake. As always, all children who register for our program are able to participate and are accommodated. Scholarships are offered to those in need. Our scholarship need rate has stayed similar over the years.

Original challenging choreography was taught and performed by dancers at all levels, including juxtaposing various styles appropriate for flexibility and strength, highlighting classical as well as some more modern trends. Programming for audiences was new and exciting, a story centered around family traditions, highlighting art forms of embroidery and porcelain making, very appropriate to celebrate the year of the rooster, representing hard work. Staging and lighting incorporated many new techniques not yet seen in the Twin Cities, including realistic projections of interiors and fantasy invoking lighting. Community reached was as expected, families, young and old, various ethnic backgrounds, in the artists and audience, primarily Asians with a significant number of Caucasians came to see the show. Outreach through social media and traditional media continues to bring in new audiences each year as well as sustaining ongoing audiences. Continuing efforts with current audiences allow a base of audience each year. In fact continuing audiences are ask to bring in new audiences. By keeping prices at reasonable level audiences found the show very accessible. Two groups grew this year over the last year bringing in new audiences. As result of mailings to senior communities, the show saw an increase in senior groups coming to enjoy this programming. Also due to the unique nature of the programming and great reviews from audiences on opening night, new audiences came from as far away as Rochester Minnesota. In future Chinese American Association of Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater will strive to draw more audiences from these groups. Chinese American Association of Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater will also continue to look for niche groups with interest in Chinese culture and dance. This production introduced group arrangements and pricing options. Increasing audiences through this method is also an option. Chinese American Association of Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater has not changed ticket prices in almost ten years, making it as affordable as can be to audiences. Using the O'Shaughnessy has also allowed many audience members with limited mobility to attend performances. Programming is also intended to appeal to dancers and audience from broad backgrounds with little understanding or immense appreciation for Chinese culture and arts. This year programming was consistent with its programming for 25 years. For dancers the diversity of community also grew, both with geographic and age. Chinese American Association of Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater opened classes in the western Twin Cities suburbs last fall. As result many more dancers than before from the western suburbs were included in the programming.

The second most significant outcome was the higher than expected attendance at the event. We estimated that 500 people would attend; however, we estimate that close to 1,000 people attended the event. With our first annual Fiesta Latina, CLUES definitely achieved its artistic goals. Our goals with the event were to highlight the richness of Latino arts and culture in the Twin Cities. CLUES promoted Latino arts and culture in two specific ways: highlighting the dance and performance traditions of Latino and Hispanic cultures and we featured John Acosta, a local Latino artist, who led a mural project for participants and for CLUES Youth in Action program. Ten dance troupes representing the cultures of Colombia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and Spain, to name a few, were featured at the event and 25 Latino youth worked on the mural project with John Acosta. Regarding strengths and challenges, the new Fiesta Latina was a significant improvement to our past health fairs. Including arts and culture in the Fiesta Latina increased participation and provided the neighborhood as well as the Latinos who attended the event a sense of civic and cultural pride. Going forward, CLUES would like to increase the arts and culture elements of the Fiesta Latina, perhaps including additional artists and diversifying the genres of Latino arts and culture, perhaps including poetry readings, dramatic presentations, and more music. The CLUES Fiesta Latina reached approximately 1,000 individuals, which was higher than the intended 500. We, indeed, reached our intended audience of Latinos and Dayton’s Bluff neighbors. As well, we are also proud to have provided exposure to Latino artists and performers, who were paid for their time. Regarding promotion, we found that promoting the event via social media to be especially effective. Facebook is more widely used than other social media platforms, so we focused our marketing/communications to Facebook. We created a detailed social media plan for the event, posted almost daily in both Spanish and English, and received a significant amount of shares and likes. As well, we advertised in Spanish focused newspapers. Approximately 80 percent of participants at the event were Latinos. Going forward, although we created postcards and other materials to hand out at area businesses, we would more than likely increase “physical marketing” more next year. As well, although we did a couple of radio interviews about the event, as well as a feature on Univision, increasing radio advertising and interviews about the event would conceivably increase people reached. Because the event was outside in the CLUES parking lot, we felt that the event was accessible to diverse audiences with diverse needs. We had two entrances, which increased the ways in which participants could enter the event and we had ample parking on the street and at an adjacent parking lot. In the future, we will increase the number of parking spaces, and perhaps encourage people to take public transportation.",,20000,"Other, local or private",30000,,"Gonzalo Petschen, Efrain Cardenas, Lorena Hernandez, Jeffrey Savage, John Pacheco, Mary Jo Avenda±o, Ruth Elfering, Melissa Franzen, Inell Rosario, Frank Fernandez, Miguel Ruiz Diaz",0.00,"Comunidades Latinas Unidas en Servicio AKA CLUES","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for Fiesta Latina 2016 featuring diverse Latino artists and community performers showcasing their art discipline while engaging the larger community in their cultural traditions and talent.

Students who were involved came from pre-existing youth programs, who we then partnered with. This model enabled us to have a much more consistent and enthusiastic group of students. However, the project was a very inclusive one, featuring a diverse blend of participants from a number of backgrounds. This was directly in line with our grant proposal.

The residency was free and all students in that grade participated, including students with special needs. The community celebrations were free as well, and were attended by all students in the schools as well as any family and friends in the broader community who wished to attend. In the planning meetings, I asked the teachers to identify any students with disabilities or other special needs. Then for each, we determined what could be done to make sure that student could participate successfully. For students with the most severe disabilities, they had an assistant with them at all times to help them, which helped a lot. This approach was successful, in that all students participated to the best of their abilities. The actual number of participants was approximately 596 students, which was slightly less than what was projected (615). There is no way to determine the actual number of participants in the community celebrations, but I estimate about 842 PK-8 students and 458 adults (across 5 schools). This is close to what was projected. At Adams and Riverview, they did a separate celebration for each class, to which parents and one or two other classrooms were invited. All-school assemblies were held at Linwood and Wellstone. At Linwood, the celebrations were really packed with parents, with standing room only. It is great to see the excitement of both the parents and the students in these events. Capitol Hill invited the entire first grade, the middle school Theater class, and parents. 596 K-8 students gained new understanding and skill in flamenco, created work that was artistically inspiring to them, and presented it to their communities (1,438 students, parents, and others). 98% of students indicated they had a positive arts experience as defined by a sense of enjoyment, accomplishment, and success. 86% said they would like to learn other new dances and cultures in the future.",,3040,"Other, local or private",13040,,"Kate Cooper, Erin Govrik, Nancy Johnson, Christine Kozachok, Steve Morse",0.00,"Deborah Elias Danza Espanola","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Learning",,"Funding for flamenco dance residencies with approximately 615 students from five St Paul schools.

With tour expenses to pay and no income from it, I had to focus on things other than INK. To further complicate matters, the original fundraising plan was to use a $20,000 Knight Foundation grant that we got and $20,000 in matching dollars to run the festival. This grant from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council made up $10,000 of the match. We also received $3,000 from the Lowertown Fund and small contributions from individuals.

Evaluations will identify 1) what students learned through arts learning residencies; 2) what value the residencies have for teachers, artists, and students; 3) impact on student access to quality arts learning experiences.","This project successfully served the intended community outlined in our proposal. The schools included in this project are attended by youth who qualify for free and reduced lunch at an average rate of 85% and almost half are enrolled in English Language Learning programs. These residencies with professional artists were designed to accommodate English language learners by offering a multi-modal approach to literacy by using less verbal art forms of puppetry, performance, and bookmaking to reinforce lessons in creative writing, language, and poetry. The feedback gathered from “talk-alouds” during program evaluation affirmed that students and teachers alike benefited from the engaging style of learning made possible by East Side Arts Council artists in residence. Phalen Lake Hmong Studies Elementary, Hope Community Academy Hmong Magnet School, Academia Cesar Chavez, and Highwood Hills Academy are vibrantly diverse schools and the artists hired for this program reflected that diversity. Marie Olofsdotter’s experience as an immigrant to the United States is one that is shared by many students at both Phalen Lake and Hope Community Academy, which are attended in great numbers by students who come from predominantly Hmong and Karen immigrant and refugee families. The diverse, mostly Latinx youth at Cesar Chavez were able to see Latinx experiences reflected back at them through a performance of Teatro del Pueblo’s The Adventures of Juan. Malia Burkhart, an artist who is multi-racial and draws from that experience to help youth explore complicated concepts around identity in arts educational settings, was requested specifically for a residency by the staff at Highwood Hills, which is attended by mostly East African youth. Access is at the core of every East Side Arts Council program. For this reason, each school selected for this project is, like all East Side Arts Council program sites, ADA compliant. Classes were free for youth to attend and all artists worked with school staff to adjust as necessary to meet the specific needs of each classroom. It was particularly helpful that artists were able to meet with teachers and each site before their residencies in order to gain the necessary information about the students they would be teaching so they were better equipped to prepare. Artists and teachers checked in throughout the residency to ensure all access needs were being adequately met. According to extensive program evaluation and feedback, this project was very successful and we would not change anything about the way it was delivered if we are given the opportunity to offer it again. East Side Arts Council is grateful to Metropolitan Regional Arts Council for funding this important and well-needed program. Qualitative: 100% of teachers indicated they would like this program to be offered next year. 100% of teachers indicated their students have increased their interest in literacy, writing, and storytelling as a result of this project.

At Menlo, 80% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and 85% of students are people of color. Heritage serves youth ages 12-20 who are primarily of East African/Somali heritage. Our youth come from the southeast and northeast Minneapolis, and most of the families we serve are below or at 100 -200% of the poverty line. Many of our students come from very large families and are typically first and second generation Americans. For many of the youth at Heritage, finding ways to communicate the complexity of the multiple lives they live on a daily basis - daughter/son, translator, student, religious scholar, and American Muslim teenager - is very difficult. Through this project, students at Menlo were able to connect more deeply with the Northeast-based Six Families collective, and students at Heritage were able to connect more deeply with Somali photography Mohamud Mumin. In addition, students at Menlo and Heritage begin connecting together and learning about each other’s communities. Students also had the ability to present their work at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design Gallery and the work was left up for one week following the opening, which allowed students to show their work to people who might not otherwise experience it Parents and sibling of students, teachers from the schools, and Youth Department staff from East Side all attended the final event along with artist from the community. At our final showing approximately 100 people showed up to see the work; this group was a mix of ages, ethnicities, and genders. Since our students and artists come from diverse backgrounds, this project was designed and executed by people from diverse communities. Our final performance brought two groups of alternative high school students together, during a transitional time in their lives to tell their stories using art forms that allow them to communicate how they feel, what they see in the world, and how it sounds to them. Friends, family members, teachers, youth workers, and siblings invited to the final performance gained insight into their unique viewpoint, and the world that they navigate daily. ACCESSIBILITY. East Side Neighborhood Services’ Out-Of-School-Time programming is accessible by design. We provided transportation for youth via bus passes and vans whenever necessary. A healthy snack was served every day. Any student at Menlo or Heritage who was signed up for afterschool and interested in attending was able to attend. No additional access needs existed within our group, though we were prepared to hire translators if needed. Thirty-four students from Menlo and Heritage attended at least one arts workshop with 90% creating at least one photography or sound project that they felt comfortable presenting. Additionally, 90% demonstrated an increased understanding of concepts relative to composition in photography and sound.",,2500,"Other, local or private",12500,,"Michael J Burns, Terry Butorac, Dan Christian, Steve Dunphy, Hamdy El Sawaf, Robert Foster, Michael Giefer, Douglas W Helm, Curt Holewa, Harvey Johnson, Judy Larson, Andrew Martin, Michelle Mercer, Michael Miller, Robert Miller, Nikki Neubauer, Susan O'Reilly, Robert Rand, Donette Rico, Gloria Sheehan, Dennis Spalla, John Thompson, Kathy Waite, Tina Walman",0.00,"East Side Neighborhood Services","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Learning",,"Funding for workshops exploring the theme of composition through sound and photography over 12 weeks during spring of 2016 for youth at East Side Neighborhood ServicesÆ Menlo VIBE and Heritage VIBE Out-of-School Time Programs.",2016-01-27,2016-07-01,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Paula,Nancarrow,"East Side Neighborhood Services","1700 2nd St NE",Minneapolis,MN,55413,"(612) 781-6011 ",pnancarrow@esns.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-learning-664,"Masami Kawazato: Artistic, organizational development, general management; Sam Stahlmann: Artistic, youth programming, organizational development; Jessica Peterson: General management; Melinda Ludwiczak: Community Education, education, general administration; Christian Novak: Fundraising, audience development; Crystal Brinkman: Youth programming, artistic; Kate Lawson: General management; Harrison Rivers: Artistic.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35887,"Arts Learning",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3"," ACHF Arts Education","Run program of weekly Music for Life sessions to seniors as part of Ebenezer's Life Long Learning Program.

Through our audience surveys, our audience and workshop attendees will express a 90 % positive response to our work. We will use ticket sales and audience count to track numbers, post-performance surveys to evaluate responses to our work, surveys to measure artist participation feedback, and anecdotal evidence from post-performance discussions. We will also track both numbers and feedback from workshops related to the production.","Our three most significant outcomes were our artistic success in the face of great challenges as indicated by the positive responses by reviewers, audiences and participating artists, the impact upon our audiences as indicated by the comments on surveys and post show discussions and the diversity of all involved in the production whether artists, audiences (from audience surveys) or reviewers. We truly achieved our artistic goals by mounting our production of 46 plays from the anthology 365 Days/365 Plays by Suzan-Lori Parks, at Penumbra Theatre. We ultimately had five directors (Rick Shiomi, Martha Johnson, Harry waters Jr., Stephanie Lein Walseth and La Trujillo) and ten cast members and seven designers (Dan Keyser, Karin Olson, Patricia Brown, Trevor Bowen, Malick Ceesay, Quinci Bachman and Michelle Barnes) work together to produce a seamless two act main stage production that received very positive responses from the media, peers and audiences. We received extensive coverage including reviews in the Star Tribune, City Pages and several major bloggers (Jill Schafer of Cherry and Spoon, John Olive in HowWasTheShow and Matthew Everett of Single White Fringe Geek). These quotes sum up the media response: ""I’ll just get this out of the way up front. Go. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this production. It will renew your faith in the power and purpose of theater. It is a delight."" Matthew Everett and ""In fact, this show, this cast, this theater with their mission of diversity, representation, and justice, is exactly what we need in this post-Hamilton world. A world in which all of us are represented in the stories we tell."" Jill Schafer. Audience responses on our post show surveys consistently reflected how challenging, thought provoking and engaging our production was. A survey via Survey Monkey of cast members showed scores of 4.9 out of 5 about diversity in the production, 4.5 out of 5 for artistic success and 4.1 out of 5 for positive experience showed how successful the production was from their perspective. In speaking with several peers, we were told that our production had a really positive ""buzz"" in the theater community because of controversies about other productions in the community. The whole process worked generally as designed but not without challenges. There were casting changes and various discussions among participating artists about differing interpretations of some of the 46 plays. The primary strength of the production was the experience, talent and willingness to work together of the directors, cast, designers and crew. The primary artistic challenge was the complications of presenting 46 different plays in one production. The technical challenges alone were enormous but ultimately overcome. There was no artistic challenge or obstacle that we weren't able to overcome. We would probably reduce the number of plays by about six. It would make the production a little less complicated and make each act a little shorter (to make each act about 50 min rather than 56 min). We would not have one person (Quinci Bachman) end up doing three jobs on the production (general manager for the company, stage manager and co-sound designer). She ended up as our stage manager because the person we originally hired to do that job had to drop out because of scheduling conflicts. We reached our goal of engaging our intended communities. We were able to bring in audience members from a wide range of community based organizations such as Neighborhood House (youth and English Language Learners members), The Wilder Center for Communities (youth group), Center for Hmong Arts and Talent (Hmong youth leaders), New Native Theater members, East Side Library, Equity Alliance Minnesota, Japanese American Citizens League and VSA Minnesota. For our production, 122 (of approximately 500 attendees) completed surveys, and of this subgroup, 46% were Anglo or European Americans and 54% were non-Anglo/European: 22% various ethnicities of Asian American, 9% African American, 5% Native American, and 18% Latino/Black Latino, Mixed Race, or Other. Ages ranged from 52% in their 40s or younger, to 48% in their 50s – 80s. Income levels ranged from 15% under $20K annually, to 32% $20 – $49K, to 29% $50K - $99K, to 26% over $100K. And finally, a part of the success was the response of audience through the post show surveys and discussions. Here are some examples of the type of comments on the surveys: “I like Radical Inclusion…It will keep working on me. “Absolutely fantastic. I got lost in it.” “This was a really entertaining and thought provoking play!” “Absurdist—helped me see new ways of viewing plays, different set of expectations,” and “So many powerful pieces and keeps me thinking! I can’t even finish my thoughts before the next play! Great production!” In terms of artists we were able to cast a wide range of actors: Of the ten actors, four were African American, two were Asian American, two were Euro American, one was Latino and one was Native American. There was an age range from the mid-sixties to mid-twenties and there were five women and five men. The production team had eight African Americans, two Asian Americans, two Latino, one with mixed Native American and Euro American heritage and nine Euro Americans. Our general manager/stage manager/co-sound designer is of the disability community as well. And in our production team the balance of men to women was nine men and thirteen women. We were also able to reach the media effectively with reviews or articles in both major media (Star Tribune and City Pages) and the emerging Twin Cities Theater Bloggers world (John Olive of HowWasTheShow, Jill Schafer of Cherry and Spoon, Laura Van Zandt of One Girl Two Cities, Mathew Everett of Single White Fringe Geek, Becki Iverson of Compendium and Hailey Colwell of MN Playlist). And their response was very positive across the board. In terms of numbers fell considerably short of our projected goal. We were aiming for one thousand six hundred participants and ended up with about six hundred. We believe there several factors involved in this shortfall such as our performances opened on the Memorial Day weekend, the nature of our production of 46 plays proved harder to market than expected and we are still a relatively new company just beginning to build our base following.",,36200,"Other, local or private",46200,,"Gregory Anderson, Ross Peterson, Christina Ogata, Michael Katz, Ken Ujifusa, Martha Johnson, Rick Shiomi, David Hwang, Cochise Anderson, Rose Chu, Don Eitel, Ricardo Vazquez, Harry Waters Jr, Jennifer Weir",0.00,"Full Circle Theater Company","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to produce a set of 46 plays selected from the anthology 365 Days/365 Plays written by the Pulitzer Prize winning author Suzan-Lori Parks.

Attendance will be evaluated via ticket sales. The project will be evaluated via post-show audience talk-back conversations and online artist and audience surveys.","The most significant outcome for Gadfly is the growth of our community. 56% of artists, both on stage and technical, had never participated in a Gadfly production. Most of those were not aware of the organization before joining this production. That sort of growth is vital to the quality of future productions. Over 30% of the audience was new to Gadfly. Those new patrons are how we can expand. Goal 1: engage at least 4 artists new to the Gadfly community. This goal was met. 7 of the 15 artists were new to the Gadfly community. This happened through specific outreach to local arts organizations serving youth artists, and through paid marketing of audition and technician calls. This targeted approach, investing both time and money in reaching out to communities we often don't engage with, was very effective. We would repeat this process to find new artists. Goal 2: bring in at least 30 patrons from the local geek community. This goal was met. Show postcards were placed at local geek centric businesses, including a yoga studio, dance classes, coffee shop, and gaming stores. We also connected with Twin Cities Geek, an online forum. Through that organization, we were able to get a review of the show from the perspective of their gaming and pop culture blogger. This review brought a surge of ticket sales in the second weekend, presumably from the local geek and gaming communities. Goal 3: collaborate with local gaming community for post-show discussions. This goal was not met. When we set this goal, we did not know how much work would be taken on by the board in taking running a rehearsal and performance venue. The additional workload did not leave enough time to organize facilitated talkbacks. However, board members reported hearing conversations happening after the show between audience members and artists that were similar to our talkback goals. Many audience members spoke about using role playing games as a way to work through real-life situations. The actors spoke on the things they had learned about being a queer teen in the 90's, when this play was set. Not having facilitated talkbacks is our biggest disappointment of this project. We have discovered that the talkbacks are a vital part of our artistic and community engagement process. Most of the time, our work is outside the traditional theatre box in some way. Giving the audience and artists a chance to come together and discuss what happened on stage helps both process the themes of our shows. Future projects will have at least one talkback scheduled during the run of the production. We were able to successfully reach our intended community of artists through carefully targeted marketing of audition calls. This resulted in a diverse group of artists- 64% were under age 18, 55% identify as a race or ethnicity other than white/non-Hispanic, and 55% identify as members of the queer community. The population of our audience was more than 25% white/non-Hispanic, which was higher than our original goals. However, it does fall in line with the demographic breakdown of Minneapolis, so we feel we are still on the right track with our demographics. Our outreach efforts did bring in a community that does not typically attend our productions, through specific work within the geek and gaming communities. We are pleased with this result. Our initial goal was to have 120 people attend this show. Over the two weekend run, 153 people attended the production. One of our biggest goals for accessibility is to keep productions financially accessible to members of the community. To that end, we had two pay-what-you-can shows, inviting the community at large to attend, regardless of what they could offer for a ticket price. Overall, 23% of our audience used a discounted ticket to attend the show. We continue to see these as very successful opportunities to open the door to the world of live theatre for individuals who do not have the financial means to attend other productions. Holding our shows at a location on the bus line, with bike rack outside, and with free parking nearby, all helped our patrons attend the show without additional transportation barriers.",,3252,"Other, local or private",9638,,"Cassandra Snow, Immanuel Elliot, Jessi Hiemer",0.00,"Gadfly Theatre Productions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to produce She Kills Monsters by Qui Nguyen, a dramatic comedy set in the world of fantasy role playing games.

It is the goal of Heart of Dance to make Dancing Classrooms accessible to all students with accommodations for religious practices, language differences, and for students with physical and mental disabilities. All three schools we worked with were ADA-accessible, as well as the location of the Colors of the Rainbow Team Match. We were able to make adjustments for students that were unable to dance, making sure they were still included in the group somehow. For example, at Benjamin E. Mays World School there was an autistic boy that would not dance and had such high anxiety that being involved in the dance circle was detrimental. He became the class DJ and Teaching Artist Assistant, which gave him a sense of responsibility in the group. He was able to connect with his classmates in a way that felt comfortable to him, yet kept him involved in the program. 184 students from three Twin Cities elementary schools learned to dance through Dancing Classrooms. 86% of surveyed parents of participating students reported that they saw a positive change in the way their children felt about themselves as a result of the program.",,12395,"Other, local or private",22395,,"Dennis Yelkin, Nell Collier, Chris Kempainen, Dede Ouren, Jill Smith, Ha Toung, Greg Warner, Leslie Whitney, Joyce Thompson, John Sandgren, Patricia Harmon, Jessi Fett, Shane Haggerty",0.00,"Heart of Dance","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Learning",,"Funding for Dancing Classrooms, a program that provides ballroom dance lessons to fifth-graders at Four Seasons A+ Elementary School, Benjamin E Mays World School, and Friendship Academy of the Arts during the fall of 2016.",2016-08-15,2016-12-23,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ember,"Reichgott Junge","Heart of Dance","500 Grant St E Ste 1308",Minneapolis,MN,55404,"(612) 750-1262 ",heartofdancemn@outlook.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-learning-667,"Thomas Surprenant: Administration, artistic, youth programming; Yumi Inomata: Administration, volunteerism, education; Brandon Bagaason: Artistic, education, youth programming; Kate Sheldon: Artistic, education; Jerri Neddermeyer: Artistic, education, administration; Mary LaGarde: Administration; Julia Floberg: Artistic, education.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35903,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Our artistic goals for this project are to integrate high quality, meaningful art making opportunities for people during a challenging phase of their lives.

By our final concert we went back to a more robust program and performed 5 pieces at an average level of 4.2. We exceeded our goal by .6 Our second goal was to that 75% of orchestra members mentored achieved felt their playing ability enhanced by the program. When given an anonymous survey in June, 100% of the orchestra members felt their playing ability was enhanced by the Orchestra Advancement Project. The mentors from the Sinfonia made a significant impact because they both helped the orchestra members individually and as an ensemble. Because the overall sound of the group improved, the orchestra members felt more confident as musicians. The Sinfonia members built relationships with Hopewell musicians by offering extra time, working one-on-one with struggling players, and donating instruments to help build the orchestra. The Hopewell Community Orchestra has more room to grow in our audience development. Although we met our goals numerically, we were actually hoping to exceed our goals and build a more diverse audience base at the concerts held in our home location. The Hopewell Orchestral Advancement Project is helping us improve the quality of our performances which is helping us to build our audience base. Because of the success of our final concert, we were invited to perform for the grand opening celebration of the Webber Library. This performance proved to be a great opportunity for reaching new audiences and building community partnerships. We discovered that as the skills and playing level increased, we needed more time for preparation, this proved both a strength and a challenge. Planning concerts and preparing rehearsals took more time as the year progressed because we were able to work at a higher level of detail. Orchestra members found they needed to put more time and thought in practicing at home. In the end, everyone put more time and effort in the project but the results were outstanding. The only possible change we would consider is to partner with additional organizations to benefit from their expertise. We reached our intended community, but plan to be intentional in diversifying our reach in the future. The estimated population benefiting from our program matched the actual population served. Since the start of this program we have gained 5 new orchestra members a 41% increase in participation. The age range of the new members ranged from 7-59. Although the ethnic demographics did not change dramatically, continuing the current rate of growth stands to further diversify our ensemble. Accessibility is intrinsic to the structure of our program, but one example of how we met our goal of accessibility and the strength of the partnership involves one our new members who is a cellist. She relies on public transportation, but cannot transport a large instrument safely on the bus so we for her to borrow one of the Hopewell cellos at no cost. Keeping a cello for her on-site allowed her to participate consistently in orchestra. Unfortunately, we only have student-level instruments to loan, but one of the cellists in the Sinfonia heard her story, recognized her skills and donated a higher quality cello for her to use.",,5000,"Other, local or private",15000,,"Madeline O'Phelan, Michael Merritt, Brooks Whitton, Bob Cowgill, Randy Carpenter, Andrew Cook",0.00,"Hopewell Music Cooperative North","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to support the Orchestra Advancement Program, offering student musicians from North Minneapolis and surrounding communities the opportunity to perform in an orchestra alongside professional musicians.

The program began in September 2016 and came to completion on April 28th, 2017. Participants were selected from In Progress’s base of existing networks of youth involved in school and community based activities. Criteria for selection were based on 3 key elements: 1. A curiosity to learn from others; 2. Commitment to participation; 3. A history of producing in video, music, photography or writing. The original intention was to begin the program with a complete group of participants already identified. Because the program required a high level of commitment, one group of 14 were identified in September, with an additional 6 identified in October. This also ensured that the intended demographic outlined in the proposal could participate. Of the original group of 20 the following demographics were served: Ethnicity: 5% Native American, 5% Middle Eastern, 45% African American, 30% Hmong, 15% Mixed Heritage. Gender: 75% female, 25% male. Income: 90% living in poverty (22% of participants identified as homeless during project), 10% low income. Age: 100% under the age of 20. Once participants were identified – mentors began individualized communication channels with participants. For those that required transportation (40%), bus tokens and rides were provided. Participants were fed snacks and meals as needed. Because individualized learning plans were designed cooperatively with each participant, those with learning disabilities received stylized learning. There was no cost to participation and all out-of-pocket expenses were covered. A similar process will be used next year with this program, as it was proven to be highly successful. By adding past participants as peer mentors and collaborators, we will likely strengthen our ability to maintain engagement over the 8-month mentorship period. 87% of the students completed the project as evidenced through completed web portfolios. 100% demonstrated increased technical and artistic competency as determined by product assessment and pre-post testing.

Surveys revealed excitement from members of the audience about exposure to the music and the artists, and appreciation of Indian Music Society of Minnesota’s role in bringing this about. We also received numerous requests after every concert for contact information regarding tabla, vocal and instrumental teachers in the area. The fall 2016 Indian Music Society of Minnesota concert season in a manner similar to the previous Fall season, focused on instrumental music (and vocal inspired instrumental styles). We included both senior artists as well as young, upcoming performers representing both Hindustani (North Indian) and Carnatic (South Indian) genres. The three-concert season as originally planned had included a Hindustani (North Indian) Sarangi recital by Harsh Narayan on September 18, a Carnatic (South Indian) Instrumental duet (jugalbandi) concert featuring the power couple, Dr. Jayanthi Kumaresh on the Veena and Maestro R. Kumaresh on the violin on October 9, ending with the Hindustani Bansuri (Bamboo Flute) recital by Pandit Rakesh Chaurasia, with Tabla accompaniment by Aditya Kalyanpur on October 31. The annual community festival of music Aradhana showcasing local talent was also included in the season offerings and was held on November 12. We are confident that we achieved our overall artistic goals. First, we were able to expose both experienced and new audiences to North as well as South Indian styles of Indian classical music and second, we were able to present the entire selection of instruments mentioned in the original grant submission - sarangi, violin, veena, mridangam, flute and tabla. However, the sarangi performance originally planned for September 18 had to be cancelled. The reason for the cancellation was that Harsh Narayan, the main artiste, did not obtain his travel visa in time and consequently had to forgo his entire USA tour. Ensuring that the selected artist/accompanist combination is able to perform on the day and at the venue agreed upon is a persistent (and growing) challenge that is, unfortunately, here to stay for the foreseeable future as the visa granting process becomes steadily more cumbersome for touring artistes. Fortunately for us, Pandit Pankaj Mishra, an equally accomplished sarangi player, was also on a North American tour in the fall and agreed to perform on November 6 with Subhajyoti Guha accompanying on tabla. The setbacks encountered due to visa delays and rejections have motivated us to identify and keep on file, other touring performers of similar caliber as back-up options, early in the concert season. All concerts were outstanding and very well received. The two workshops conducted by Dr. Jayanthi Kumaresh following the veena/violin duet in October were also a resounding success, and helped improve the quality of the music while boosting the confidence of the participants in the community festival, Aradhana, that took place on November 12 at the Hindu Temple of Minnesota. The small ticket price increase that had been put in place in 2015 still kept our prices low, by most standards, and well within the reach of the general public, particularly students and seniors, while allowing us to accommodate artists' fee increases and continue to showcase the very best of Indian classical music in accordance with our mission. Our aim was to increase the awareness and understanding of the rich diverse traditions of Indian classical music in the Greater Twin Cities. For Fall 2016, again, our theme was instrumental music. We presented both North and South Indian styles and included the violin, veena (South), bamboo flute, (North) and percussion instruments, mridangam and tabla. The concert series made it possible for Indian and non-Indian Twin Cities’ residents to experience live classical music performed by world-renowned senior and talented upcoming younger artists visiting from India, as well as by artists residing in the USA and local Minnesota talent. In addition to seasoned listeners and connoisseurs of music, the performances were also able to draw the uninitiated and younger generation non-Indians to a unique musical experience, and to reach community members of diverse ethnic backgrounds and economic status. Invaluable educational experience was offered to students of music, in performance format and in workshop and classroom format. The explanations, lectures and workshops, in particular, helped to make the unrelenting classical style of music a little less daunting and more approachable to first timers. Last, but not least, with the Aradhana community festival, we staged a performance that promoted local (Greater Twin Cities) talent of all age groups, backgrounds and skill levels, and helped to improve community participation and awareness. The audience, as expected, comprised largely of Indian community members drawn from the greater Twin Cities. For the first veena/violin duet, 50% were of Indian background, 30% were Caucasian, 10% African Americans and 10% were represented by other ethnic groups. The Oct 31st and Nov 6th events, the bamboo flute concert had a slightly different demographic, attracting more community members of non-Indian ethnic background and more young people than the previous event. This might have had to do with the exotic nature of the bamboo flute, the relative young age of the performers and the additional student and group discounts that were offered. Indian Music Society of Minnesota’s efforts to ensure accessibility through various means, including educational tools, economic breaks, varied programming, and performance venue standards were also successful. Although general admission ticket prices increased slightly since 2015, non-members could save on online advance tickets. The two venues for the 2016 season, the Performing Arts Center at the Normandale Community College and the Nath Auditorium in Maple Grove, are venues that provide excellent access to those with disabilities, with access ramps to the theater, space for wheelchair seating inside the hall, and handicap access to facilities. A small number of volunteers were at hand to provide rides to and from our concerts in case of need. The availability of these rides and special seating facilities ensured that our senior patrons and members with disabilities were able to attend.",,5950,"Other, local or private",15950,,"Ameeta Kelekar, Mythili Chari, Vineet Sinha, Sriram Natarajan, Jay Patel, Siddharth Iyengar, Sandhya Joshi, Allalaghatta Pavan",0.00,"Indian Music Society of Minnesota","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to present the Fall 2016 Concert Series, a series of three chamber concerts featuring internationally renowned artists from India and one community festival of Indian classical music.

The Bon Odori dance program and the other performances were as much a celebration of intercultural ties as a display of Japanese cultural heritage. We will continue to work with the performing groups throughout our community to bring us closer together. The Como Park Japanese Lantern Lighting Festival is modeled after Obon festivals, which are held in August all across Japan to honor the dead, and feature paper lanterns or bonfires. A highlight of these festivals is the bon odori, or folk dance exclusive to the Obon holidays. We invited local musicians, singers, and dancers to lead a bon odori at Como Park as part of an ongoing effort to build an authentic, self-sustaining community-based Japanese folk dance tradition here is Minnesota. In the past, Japan America Society of Minnesota has requested funds for only the Bon Odori program. This has been a successful project for which we appreciate the support of Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. This year, in order to build a stronger entertainment program for the Lantern Lighting Festival, we received a grant for funding to support a larger entertainment offering. It included not only the Bon Odori performance but also performances by other Japan related arts groups in Minnesota. The groups performing were the Chura-Ryukyu Okinawa Sanshinkai (songs and music from Okinawa), Mu Performing Arts (Japanese taiko drummers), Mu-Min (a Japanese chorus) and Mikaharu Kai (a classical Japanese dance troupe), Harisen Daiko (Japanese taiko drummers), Sakura Kai, Sansei Yonsei Kai and Taikollaborative. As it happened, three groups did not perform as planned: Kawa Tatsu Yosakai, the Minneapolis Japanese School, and TaikoAlive. In their place, we added the Ensemble MA group that featured taiko drumming that was well received. The final expense report reflects this change. The funds requested also paid for the rehearsals, a community demonstration at an open house rehearsal for the Bon Odori, and a public performance at the Como Park Lantern Lighting Festival on the evening of Sunday, August 21, 2016. In addition to this traditional performance, a pre-festival demonstration and open house was offered to the community as a way to build excitement and allow community members to gain a more personal and deep understanding of what Minnesota Bon Odori is. The event was held on Monday, July 25th, 2016 at the Christian mission center in Uptown and featured a short demonstration by the artists, a presentation on the Minnesota Bon Odori traditions, and an hour for socializing and discussion including Japanese appetizers and refreshments. The event provided a window on traditional Japanese culture and also encouraged cultural exchange among a very diverse group of Japanese residents and Americans with an interest in learning more about Japan. Over all the entertainment part of the event went quite well. In the future, we will consider some improvements in advertising the stage location. This year, we had a brand new expansion plan for the venue that featured the stage in a new location of the festival site. Since it was new, the festival attendees were not aware of the change, so a few people had a difficult time finding the main stage. We look forward to having more people enjoy the entertainment in the future. This year's bon odori project continued to bring various performers together to create an authentic bon odori experience and we believe that we made a difference for our audience as well as for the artists. The Minnesota Bon Odori is designed to serve the performing artists as well as the community members who attended the open house and Lantern Lighting Festival. Altogether, nearly thirty artists were given a chance to work with each other providing both the dance, music and the taiko drum parts of the performance. The artists who participated in offering this unique program of artistic collaboration only made possible through this project, and the Twin Cities community at large is able to meet and interact with the artists and learn about Japanese traditional music and dance. Although the cultural heritage of the Minnesota Bon Odori is Japanese, there are multiple communities brought together though its performance; the open house which has drawn about 30-35 people and the festival is open to everyone. This year with the cooperation of the Saint Paul – Nagasaki Sister City Committee in recruiting and directing the entertainment at the main stage, there were 10 groups participating in the full entertainment program. The audience was made of members of the Japan related community with Japanese and American citizens with a Japan connection or a positive interest in Japanese culture. There were families with children and adults as well as seniors in the audience. We view this as an important opportunity to present a unique Japanese folk tradition with the Minnesota Bon Odori and the other performances. The event appealed to Japanese immigrants and Japanese-Americans interested in their cultural heritage, but it also attracted a wide variety of people who have an interest in Japanese culture or have lived in Japan. We also welcomed individuals who have no specific ties with Japan but are curious to learn more about another culture. To ensure that the our project fully embraced the diversity of the community, we advertised both out in the general public through recreational and community centers and Twin-Cities news sources, as well as through community-specific media such as our newsletter and other media that serve the Asian-American community in the Twin Cities. In addition, the pre-festival open house and demonstration allowed a broader section of the community to gain a deeper understanding of the bon odori tradition and Japanese culture. The artists involved, while predominantly of Japanese heritage, did include performers of varying backgrounds and ages.

One measure of success will be counting the number of older adults who participate in the learning sessions. A second measure will be the use of participant surveys completed at the end of the arts series which address the proposed outcomes.","Each of the three buildings where we hosted the series has its own unique community of tenants. Graham Place Apartments and the Weinberg Apartments are both buildings for older adult tenants only. Each has a large population of refugees from the former Soviet Union as well individuals who are African American and Caucasian. Montreal Hi-Rise hosts tenants who represent the populations of younger adults with disabilities as well as older adults. Our experience in each building was different. We had the most difficulty drawing participants at the Weinberg. That said, this was the building where we had participants from the former Soviet Union who spoke very limited English mingle together with older Caucasians. One of the Russian participants said ""we never had anything like this in Russia!"" A second participant commented ""I've never seen her (fellow tenant) talk like this -- she is so excited."" The Minneapolis Institute of Art docents noted sharing the art experience seemed to transcend language barriers and with the help of translators, all attendees were able to participate equally. At the Montreal Hi-Rise it was a very diverse group of younger disabled and older adults. Despite the physical and mental challenges several of the participants faced, the Minneapolis Institute of Art docents commented about how respectful and supportive the participants were of each other. This group consistently had the maximum number of participants attend. This was a ""return appearance"" at Graham Place of the Celebrating Life series, as Graham Place was the site of the pilot the previous summer. Several of the previous attendees came back for the series this year. This building had only older adults participate and lacked the most diversity within the group. This group was also well attended with maximum participation at each session. Things we would do differently: 1) We learned that it is important to have an identified champion(s) within each building. These champions can be building staff or tenants (who are seen as leaders in the building). We did not have a champion at the Weinberg, and therefore we were able to draw only 6 participants. When we go back next year, we will work with an identified, enthusiastic tenant to secure her assistance in promoting the event. We already have identified champions at the Montreal Hi-Rise and at Graham Place -- and securing attendance was not difficult at these two buildings. The docents determined that it is important to keep the size smaller -- to a maximum of 12 people -- in order for all participants to have the opportunity to share what they are learning and their arts experience. 2) Despite the enthusiasm for the culminating trip to Minneapolis Institute of Art, several participants cancelled at the last minute. Several said they were not feeling well enough to go; others expressed their anxiety about being able to navigate the museum, despite the assurances of the docents. Likely this will be a consistent problem in the future given the nature of this population.

Z Puppets worked with Tubman staff to distribute and post flyers, connected with Free Arts (an arts organization who had been doing ongoing year-long residency) to ask their advice on how to best recruit participants. Both the staff and Free Arts said that the most effective method was to have the kids' themselves experience it and then spread the word. Both reported that they overheard our core group of youth speaking excitedly about Happy Places to others. The parents' concern for confidentiality was much lower than we anticipated and instead they readily granted permission to share the youth's work publicly even when it included images of their faces. Because confidentiality was not a barrier, the final reached a much wider audience than we had planned, via online and social media opportunities we had via the City of Maplewood. The participants responded positively to the multi-cultural artist team, as the families were all multiracial and multicultural. The balance of males and females on Z Puppets' artist team was also a positive in strengthening the connection of both young males and females to the project. 1.

Diversity goals were met of involving people of contrasting ages and physical and cognitive abilities in the dancing/music/story/theater circle. Midwest Special Services, at their venues and with their practices, specialize in provide accessible services to their clients and families. The Minnehaha Park site was accessible to people of all ages and abilities. We used our inclusive accessible interactive participatory involvement methods. Midwest Special Services bused people from their sites to the culminating Minnehaha Park Intergenerational Dance Hall event, as did Walker Methodist Assisted Living in Minneapolis. Included in the event was a group of 8-9 year old day camp children, who were actively involved. In addition, members of Kairos Alive!’s volunteer cohort attended and participated. The Minnehaha event included 160+ participants, half of whom had developmental disabilities. 50 were children below the age of 18. We felt honored to hear this reaction to our Minnehaha event from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council Program Director Kelly Affeldt: “This celebration was just a ton of fun and I was so inspired by your organization’s work. To sit back and observe the absolute JOY that poured out of each person there was food for my soul. I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your work as a community member. I have three children, one of whom is the same age as the young students who joined in yesterday. The emotional intelligence of these preteens is quickly developing and I find they are very perceptive to the vibes surrounding them. I really appreciated the fact that you included these kids and provided them with an experience to learn compassion and sensitivity. And in terms of the residents of Walker Methodist Assisted Living and Midwest Special Services - wow! Words and metrics simply cannot do justice to what was experienced yesterday. I watched guarded people open up and I saw people jump out of their wheelchairs and joyfully dance. It was plain to see how fulfilling this day was for each and every one of them! I was so impressed by the way Kairos connected with this community. You were not putting on an event for them - you WERE one of them. So, I wanted to thank you all, not just as someone from Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, but as a community member. Each one of you at Kairos is doing extraordinary work and I am crazy about all of you!” Midwest Special Services project manager Lauren Hughes says of this arts learning project with them, “It was amazing to see what dance could bring out in people. Participants enjoyed the music and the direct engagement of dancing one on one with someone else. Kairos’ genuine desire to connect with each participant is so apparent and the participants pick up on that too. This was our second time working with Kairos and everyone was very excited to have them back.” 12 Dancing Heart sessions were conducted with 13-24 client participants and 3-6 staff/volunteers.

Audience surveys showed that 50% of respondents experienced this art form for the first time. Sufiana - the Sufi Ecstasy was a new work collaboratively created by Local artists Rita Mustaphi (vision, direction and choreography) and Dr. Pooja Goswami Pavan (composer and vocalist). The artistic team also includes Dr. A. Pavan (Tabla drum), Greg Herriges (Guitarist), Pankaj Mishra (Sarangi), Abhinav Sharma (Percussionist), Vinod Krishnan (Keyboards), and Dipankar Mukherjee (narration). It featured the Katha Dance Theatre company dancers who loved this opportunity since they were challenged and artistic growth happened and they did rise to the expectations. This production was presented by The Cowles Center for the Performing Arts, opening their 2016-2017 season. In 3 shows we provided an ASL interpreter, a post show Q and A session with the artists. Additionally, for Thursday night dress rehearsal showing was open to select needy patrons, free of charge. This collaboration exposed the greater public to the breath of Indian arts that are represented locally. The subject matter of Sufiana - The Sufi Ecstasy showcased original Sufi music and choreography, introducing our viewing audience to the greater Indian cultural subsection of Sufism. There were a total of 723 tickets sold for all shows. We offered tickets at three prices from $21-$26, with reduced price tickets for seniors and students. We created an extensive program note for our audience members and conducted Sunday matinee show with a post-show discussions free of charge. What did not work: It took more time to develop, because the music and dance collaborations needed to accommodate a large cast and took time to assemble collectively for rehearsals. What we did well: We firmly believed that undertaking Sufiana - The Sufi Ecstasy was a significant step towards fulfilling Katha Dance Theatre’s mission, which is to preserve the Kathak dance culture of Northern India through the development of accessible, innovative, and collaborative works. All of the individual partners that participated in the project came together with their collective artistic ability, audiences, and resources which resulted with a strengthened presence in our community that will better position us all to sustain our roles as cultural ambassadors throughout the 7-county metro area. Additionally, each artist that participated was able to reach and connect a broader community and wider audience otherwise not accessible acting on their own due to limited budgets, staff sizes, and resources. Our audiences were challenged to evaluate both their own and another culture’s concepts of beauty, gender, and love, providing them an opportunity to experience the transcendence associated with experiencing a piece of art. The post-show discussion helped to provide a rare opportunity for diverse voices to articulate the role cultural arts play in understanding and strengthening community diversity. In short, we feel that Sufiana - the Sufi Ecstasy, was a great success. Yes, we reached our intended community. Katha Dance Theatre and its presenter, The Cowles Center for Dance and the Performing Arts, were responsible in marketing the show to targeted audiences. Katha Dance Theatre mailed postcard invitations and displayed event posters at locations throughout Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, and Washington counties that included area businesses, libraries, and schools. Katha Dance Theatre conducted widespread media and social campaigns that were directed to local newspapers, magazine, and radio stations and to the organizations’ of Facebook, Twitter, and Constant Contact mailing lists. Additionally, Katha Dance Theatre used advertising dollars to put ads online and on many events calendars, including the Dance Newsletter, Localfiles.com, and Star Tribune, which are popular online destinations for Minnesota’s culture and dance community as well as our targeted population. We also had 10 radio commercial segments on MPR that we used to target a wider audience. Katha Dance Theatre's Artistic Director, Executive Director, and Board of Directors used information provided through post-show and class discussions, critical reviews and audience surveys to evaluate and measure the effectiveness of its programs and performances. With the aforementioned programs and goals, Katha Dance Theatre met the goals of making it accessible. 1. Katha Dance Theatre creates multidisciplinary performances and educational works. These activities united people from various geographies, races, and cultures while expanding their understanding of cultures. 2. It enhanced Katha Dance Theatre's cultural collaboration effort by creating a new work with the Indian Music Society of Minnesota, and Pangea World Theatre. 3. It brought in diverse constituent composition, including youth, seniors and minorities. 4. Katha Dance Theatre received positive responses from box office statistics, audience members, and written surveys. Katha Dance Theatre performances focused on the creation of community-inclusive art making that emerges from a long-standing commitment of the organization to work with varied and diverse populations and educate them on Kathak art and culture of India, as well as Hindustani music traditions, and Sufi music, dance and poetry.

The economic range varied, with most paying full tuition while 2 received scholarships. Summer Youth Players teaching artists accommodated each participant's age level and artistic ability, and provided them the opportunity to explore diverse artistic disciplines including singing, acting, and dancing. In addition, students explored technical skills including design, visual arts, and sewing skills as they helped to create the fun sets, props, and costumes. Summer Youth Players kids from both camps engaged the broader community when they represented Lakeshore at our Thursday night MarketFest booth. Kids wore their show T-shirts and handed our postcards as they excitedly invited people to their show. Attendees were drawn from the general public, and included participants family and friends. Residents from Solid Ground, a nearby housing facility for women and children transitioning out of homelessness, were invited to attend. Nine responded, but only one actually attended. Attendance overall was very strong. The Summer Youth Players, Jr. show drew 635 attendees (91% of capacity), and Summer Youth Players drew 871 (83% of capacity) for a total of 1506 seats filled.

All surveys will also have space provided to give suggestions to help us continue to serve them better, and to leave comments about their interpretation of the piece, giving us evidence of the success of Eclectic Edge Ensemble’s mission. We will have a talk back with our audience after the Saturday matinee performance to talk about our process and answer any questions and receive spoken feedback on the production. Cast, creators, designers and crew will hold a post mortem meeting after the production closes and fill out artist surveys with their evaluation, reaction and feedback on our process for Snowbound!","481 patrons attended Snow Bound! over 4 performances. 34 artists were able to work directly on this production. Demographic surveys showed 52% had never attended an Eclectic Edge Ensemble performance before! Female audience members made up 65% while 35% were male. In terms of ethnicity 18% identified themselves as being African American, 7% Asian American, 6% Hispanic/Latino and 69% Caucasian. Eclectic Edge Ensemble achieved our Artistic Goal for Snow Bound!: A Journey from Autumn to Spring which included creating a rich environment for diverse artists by bringing multiple mediums together to create one collaborative work. We collaborated with an array of artists including a director, choreographer, 3 local composers, 11 dancers, 11 puppeteers and 7 designers to work on the full production of Snow Bound! Snow Bound grew from a 60 minute work to a full evening production running 87 minutes. For our new version of Snow Bound the directors decided for the lead character to be played by a woman. We had local actor Emily Madigan perform as The Figure. She did an incredible job of taking the audience on her journey by feeling everything she was experiencing. We added 3 new sections Birth of a Snowflake, Isolation and Survival. Eclectic Edge Ensemble collaborated with composers Richard Sloss, Warren Park and Nathaniel Kling to create these new sections. Birth of a Snowflake gave a touching glimpse of motherhood as the audience watched the Mother snowflakes make the difficult decision on when it was time to release their baby snowflakes into the world. Isolation ended with 3 dancers being trapped in boxes of light giving the haunting feeling of being stuck in a never ending winter. Finally Survival followed a pack of rams fighting amongst each other for the limited supplies they needed. These 3 new sections really completed our production. The directors worked closely with their technical director and designers on creating a snowy world while finding hiding places for all of the puppets including a giant snow dragon, whirling snow tornadoes, and hibernating wire framed animals. The Lab’s space is very unique with little to no masking. The scenic design made it possible for the audience to feel a part of this world, its magic, wonder and keep everything a surprise. Snow Bound!, gave a unique opportunity for the artists of Eclectic Edge Ensemble and Mad Munchkin Productions to bring the art forms of dance and puppetry to the stage as a cohesive experience of narrative imagery. Eclectic Edge Ensemble company members rehearsed roughly 10-15 hours/week for the 5 months leading to the show with the ambitious undertaking of creating work that challenged the dancers beyond picking up choreography, they also had to find ways to embody all these different elements and objects of winter that changed from scene to scene. They also worked with director Laura Wilhelm on puppetry sequences for Snow Bound., including taking puppetry workshops in October that introduced this art form and gave them an understanding for rehearsals. Similarly to the dancers, the puppeteers were also stretched in new ways as performers. This cast reversed roles many times, using a completely different medium from what they are used to. Instead of manipulating a snowflake puppet, a puppeteer used their entire body as a snowflake dancing in a choreographed blizzard. And a dancer, performed the dance of migrating geese using puppets in the air rather than their own limbs. Eclectic Edge Ensemble had great success in reaching our intended community. To add a wider reach even farther beyond the dance community, Eclectic Edge Ensemble identified youth and seniors as potential patrons that would be well served by this production. We provided 80 free tickets for youth and their guardians through Project SUCCESS. During the same performance we also offered Ebenezer Senior Living Life Long Learning Program 20 free tickets to their seniors. We held a talk back after this performance to give both of these groups a chance to ask questions to Snow Bounds’ creators, designers, composers and performers. We heard great feedback from both groups who were so grateful for the opportunity to see Snow Bound! Focusing in on youth audience members we also decided to design and hold our first youth poetry competition asking for winter themed poems. Submissions could be any style of poetry (limerick, haiku, free form, etc.) and must be original work. We worked directly with 5 classrooms, ranging in age from 1st– 6th grade, 6 different dance studios and was open to the public. Entries were submitted on-line, by mail or picked up at the school or studios we directly worked with. Winners read or had their poems read to the audience during intermission of one of our performances and received two free tickets to the selected show. All other entries were displayed in the lobby of the Lab Theater throughout the run of our show. We had huge success with our Youth Poetry competition with over 80 entries! It was incredibility memorable watching students see their poems displayed in the lobby or who were chosen build confidence as they read their poems in front of an audience. It also brought in many students and families who had never attended a dance concert before and had exciting feedback and seemed to leave an inspiring imprint. We had a talk back after our Saturday and Sunday productions, which was ASL interpreted on Sunday, and we were able to answer audience questions about our process and experiences. Even though we tried different avenues of advertisement we did not have any members of the deaf/hard of hearing community attend our Sunday matinee. We also offered a pre-show tactile experience for blind and low vision patrons before Saturday matinee performance which was also going to be audio described. We were excited because we were contacted by one family who had a low vision 10 year old they wanted to bring to our production, but then he was unable to come because he had a horrible cold. We also addressed accessibility in more practical ways by offering concert tickets at a below-average rate ($17 advanced, $20 at the door). We had a study guide that was offered on our website that included interviews with choreographers, composers, designers etc., affiliated with Snowbound, and fun related puzzles. We received great feedback from patrons on our study guide on how helpful, informative and fun it was.",,13000,"Other, local or private",23000,,"Ryan McGuire Grimes, Tori Holtz, Bill Mohr, Blake Iverson, Matthew Prediger",0.00,"Eclectic Edge Ensemble","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to produce four performances of Snowbound!: A Journey from Autumn to Spring, in collaboration with Mad Munchkin Productions.

Post-program surveys indicated 100% of participants demonstrated gains in their interpersonal and social skills as a result of the program. Participants in The Art of Social Skills were all successfully provided with high quality experiences in theater, music, dance, visual arts, and poetry by accomplished professional artists, achieving our first artistic goal. More than 80% of participants indicated they weren’t engaged in any form of arts activities at program initiation; of the five who indicated that they currently participated in arts activities, only three indicated exposure to the arts more than monthly. None of the participants were engaged in this type of high quality, intensive artistic experience, however. Seventy-seven percent (77%) of the participants reported they “very rarely” participated in arts activities of any type at program initiation. The Art of Social Skills successfully met our second artistic goal by providing a safe and creative venue to practice appropriate communication, such as eye contact, body language, tone of voice, and facial expressions, and to “rehearse” a variety of social interactions. Three of the ten domains measured by pre- and post-program evaluations where most improvement was reported included effective communication, demeanor and attitude, and cooperativeness. One individual who had “a lot of trouble with communication and engaging in conversations” at program initiation demonstrated gains in six out of ten domains measured after program completion, including self-awareness, communication, demeanor and attitude, working with others, professionalism, and acceptance of feedback. It is unlikely he would have be open to engaging with others, let alone gaining skills from the experience, without the safe environment provided by the program. Achievement of our final artistic goal was demonstrated by a comparison between pre- and post-program evaluations, which indicated that 100% of the individuals who participated in the program for the entire period had gained improvements in social skills that will positively impact their interpersonal interactions, such as being successful in volunteer settings and in the workplace, and engaging more effectively in their broader communities. Some things that worked well included: Individuals who had been withdrawn, and even “dependent” at program initiation had opportunities to express themselves artistically in a supportive environment, resulting in a greater willingness to risk vulnerability and being more self-reliant through performance opportunities and creative choices. Individuals who struggled with impulse control gained greater insight into the importance of taking turns, watching and listening to others, and providing feedback in constructive ways and at socially acceptable times. Role play opportunities also provided experience with connecting the more abstract painting, dance and rhythm activities to the real world situations, by acting out and practicing solutions to challenges they face in social settings on a daily basis. Our project successfully reach the intended community with regard to program participants, support staff, and teaching artists. Because we were able to pull from a pool of diverse candidates who receive services from Community Involvement Programs, both groups had a rich diversity of participants. The programs were accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities including intellectual/developmental disabilities, mental illness, emotional/behavioral challenges, physical disabilities, and sensory deficits. For example, the program space was fully accessible for individuals who used wheelchairs and sign language interpreters were provided for participants who were deaf/hard of hearing. In addition, Community Involvement Programs provided transportation support to ensure participants were able to get to each arts session. Participants came from a wide variety of backgrounds, ethnicities, and socioeconomic groups. The program also provided exposure to a unique arts experience for 10 staff employed by Community Involvement Programs, who provided support and oversight to the participants involved in the program while participating alongside them. The small size of each group (no more than 15 people with disabilities plus several support staff), allowed the teaching artists to address the diversity of experiences and abilities that were present. The programs were designed for groups with a range of abilities and the teaching artists had experience addressing the differing needs related to certain types of disabilities, and created an environment inclusive of all individuals. One way to potentially enhance the richness of experience for future programs such as this would be to open up the classes to community members who were interested in an intensive arts program, to provide increased exposure to those in the greater community for the participants, as well as offering an opportunity for community members to have a rich and engaging experience with people who experience disability. The biggest challenge with this would likely be managing larger group sizes and the diversity of potential responses, while still ensuring that those who were primarily designated as program participants still received the intended benefits of our artistic goals.",,5000,"Other, local or private",15000,,"Lisa Baron, Sonja Bigalk, Gewn Carlson, Gay Gonnerman, Kyle Holtz, John Klinck, Jesse Mason, Michael Mason, John Ottman, Lori Sedlezky, John Watson, Doug Wise",0.00,"Community Involvement Programs","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to collaborate with Upstream Arts on its Art of Working program, using performing arts practices to develop social and communication skills for individuals who have struggled to be contributing members of their communities due to challenges with s",2015-10-12,2016-06-03,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Jolene,"Thibedeau Boyd","Community Involvement Programs","2300 Kennedy St NE",Minneapolis,MN,55413,"(612) 353-4595 ",jolenet@cipmn.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-618,"Denise Prosek: Artistic, administration; Laura Sorensen: Artistic, administration, organizational; Mathew Janczewski: Artistic, organizational development, administration; Adriana Rimpel: Artistic, administration; Chris Garza: Artistic, administration, audience development; Natalie Madgy: Administration, education, artistic; Caitlin Marlotte: Administration, fundraising, artistic; Jane Heer: Artistic, administration; Elysia Michaelsen: Artistic, education.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, Jeff Prauer (651) 645-0402 ",1 32553,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","We hope to have an audience of between 700-900 patrons from all cultural, ethnic, economic, gender, artistic, and age backgrounds.

The top two reasons that audiences attended, the cast and creative team (31%) and because they are fans of intimate theater (23%), indicates they will support future projects like And So It Goes. And So It Goes by George F. Walker was the most successful production in Dark and Stormy’s history financially, and one of its most adventurous and successful artistically. We had the advantage of rehearsing in the performance space, which was set up in a “clock” formation – a variation of a theater in the round, with the audience spread around the space in a full circle that was generally only two rows deep (a very intimate seating arrangement). The playing space was centered by a large concrete pillar, which slightly obstructed the view of each audience member and actor from each other at times, (intentionally). This unique style of staging was new to the entire creative team, the actors, and the audience, and it proved to be an exceptionally successful artistic choice, and one we may use again. Because some of the action was placed amongst the audience, the “fourth wall” was often broken, creating a truly intimate and immediate experience that had a profound effect on the audience, according to our surveys. This experience provided a multi-dimensional challenge for our creative team and even our most veteran actors, who had to adjust to a large obstruction in the center of the playing space (they eventually found it to be a grounding force), and to the audience being close enough to touch. In addition, our assistant stage managers (usually kept from view back stage) remained on stage as a full part of the production, amongst the audience and actors. It was the first time any of the highly experienced cast had performed George F. Walker’s complicated and nuanced work. Sally Wingert, Sara Marsh, Robert Dorfman, and James Craven are all at the top of their field, well-known and well-loved by Twin Cities audiences and critics alike. They had excellent chemistry, and director Benjamin McGovern helmed a collaborative, open, engaging rehearsal room. The artists had the skills and ability necessary to successfully take on the delicate mix of humor, absurdism, and tragedy in this material, which, while disturbing and challenging, brought the actors and creative team closer together. We achieved all our goals with And So It Goes: Walker’s complex characters, structure and narrative were challenging even for our highly experienced artists (who have Broadway, national theater, and major feature film credits among them); our unconventional staging; it was the first time any of our artists, crew, or designers had worked on a George F. Walker play; it was the national premiere of this production; the playwright was thrilled with our production and hopes that we produce more of his work; and it can be best summed up by a statement from Broadway veteran Robert Dorfman on closing night, “We changed people with this play. We changed people’s lives. This makes me excited to do another play. This is why I do this.” The rest of the cast and creative team felt the same way. All in all, And So It Goes was a massive artistic success. Dark and Stormy was seeking to serve three distinct groups with And So It Goes: audience members, area artists, and participating artists. We successfully reached these groups with record attendance. And So It Goes is the second most highly attended production in our history, limited only by house size and length of run. And So It Goes played to an astonishing 123% capacity (a record), showcasing the work of 17 participating artists. Our surveys and feedback on social media show that we reached theatergoers. We offered a free preview performance, well attended by theater artists and the community. Our $5 Wednesday night performance, geared specifically toward area artists, sold out. In addition to seeing many artists after each performance, we received a great deal of feedback from artists on social media. Our outreach efforts resulted in some community diversity. Audience surveys show that, as we expected, our audience demographic is largely Caucasian, has an income over $100,000 per year, is middle-aged, and evenly split between male and female (with only a small number identifying as transgender, though over half identify as LGBTQ allies). However, as we have previously seen, we had a large response on social media from individuals under the age of 35. “Go see Dark and Stormy’s latest show ‘And So It Goes,’ tomorrow or the next day. I CANNOT get over how brilliant it is. Wow. Go see it. Really. Wow.” “Go see Dark and Stormy’s show, it’s honestly amazing, and I don’t think I have ever recommended a show on here.” “You are incredible and I loved watching you and supporting your work tonight!!” “Fantastic performance! I would say it’s a must see production :)” We received many incredibly moving survey responses, messages, and emails from audience members, such as this: “My wife and I lost our 23 year old daughter…she had struggled for many years with bi polar disorder and clinical depression…You and your company did an amazing job capturing the horrors of dealing with mental illness and untimely death. As one of the lines in the play stated parents never quite recover from the loss of a child. Yet – with help – we do find ways to move forward. Let me simply say thank you.” Our outreach efforts met our goals in making our project open and accessible to all who might wish to participate; we offered discounted tickets, used free spaces to publicize (like social media, leaving postcards at strategic locations, word of mouth, etc.), and our accessibility and low prices compared to larger theaters were highlighted by the press. In addition, excellent reviews from critics and a large feature on artistic director Sara Marsh in the Star Tribune dramatically increased visibility. We also worked with our partner, Artspace, to offer a discount to our fellow tenants. We will continue to build partnerships will fellow organizations to be even more inclusive and accessible.""",,30761,"Other, local or private",40761,,"Julie Bruns, Wilson Eugster, Lynn-Ellen St Martin, Jill A Anderson, Amy Bettwy, Kevin Cannon, Sara Marsh",0.00,"Dark and Stormy Productions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the national premiere of George F Walker's play, AND SO IT GOES, to be presented as part of their fourth season.

Audience Surveys showed 59% of the audience sees 0-3 dance performances per year, showing a need for Alternative Motion Project to cater to those that don't regularly see dance. Alternative Motion Project Rehearsal Vlogs got a total of 2,243 reach/views showing a need for more consistent opportunities for audiences to connect to the process. With Alternative Motion Project's 5th Season Performance, Alternative Motion Project achieved its goals of creating an evening-length Modern dance performance. This included 6 new dance works for 11 dancers that were diverse in style and subject matter and were also creative, entertaining and accessible to its audience. Alternative Motion Project provided the following audience engagement activities: Rehearsal Video Blog, Audience Create-a-Dance, Behind-the-Scenes Video (during performance), Post-Show Q and A, and Audience Surveys (online and paper). While Alternative Motion Project was not able to reach 400 audience members (approximately 300 instead), we were still able to reach and exceed our goal of 30% overall audience participation in one of our several engagement activities: 2,243 total reach/views on the Rehearsal Video Blog (Facebook, Vimeo); Approximately 40 total audience surveys completed; 40 Audience Create-A-Dance Surveys completed; Approximately total of 100 people attended Post-Show Q and A between 3 performances. The collaborations between artists of different genres Kristin Howe (dance) and Richard Haglund (music) were successful and well-received. The artists were able to challenge themselves to cross their own individual disciplines to truly collaborate on a project that blended music and dance and included an exciting live music performance by Haglund on a new instrument, the Octapad. Alternative Motion Project was also successful in blending technology and dance when Joanna Lees shot, edited and choreographed video that was projected during one of her world premieres and was a crowd-pleasing favorite of the show. Each dancer was challenged by the artistic product either in stamina, technique, emotional content or a combination of these things. All four choreographers were challenged to develop their choreographic abilities by exploring a new combination of movement style, subjects, themes, cast of dancers, music, and sets. One of Alternative Motion Project's major strengths was to be able to keep to the timeline that was planned and organize the logistics of the production flawlessly. Another Alternative Motion Project strength is finding ways to bring its audience into our artistic process. The Rehearsal Video Blogs were particularly popular (2,243 total reach/views through Facebook and Vimeo over the course of 13 episodes) as well as the Social Media posts describing aspects of and insight into the artistic process throughout. A recurring challenge for Alternative Motion Project has been in terms of marketing and promotion. While Alternative Motion Project is able to connect with its supporters via social media fairly well, we still weren't able to maximize the potential of paid advertisements, either online or in print. In future projects, Alternative Motion Project will continue to research and compare these options to reach out to new audiences through trial and error. Another challenge this year was in overall attendance. Alternative Motion Project's 5th Season was held at the same time as several other dance performances in the Twin Cities. Alternative Motion Project believes that dance audiences might have had too many shows to choose from and this affected a decrease in audience members (vs 2015). According to the completed audience surveys, 53% of the audience sees 0-3 dance performances per year, confirming this outreach. Of these completed surveys, 91% were either very or somewhat likely to attend another Alternative Motion Project show in the future. Alternative Motion Project also learned that (of the completed surveys) 74% of its audience is female, 15% male and 6% identify as other. 59% were between the ages of 21-49, 27% were 50 and older, and 9% of Alternative Motion Project's audience were under 21. In terms of diversity, Alternative Motion Project certainly met its goal of creating stylistically different modern dances for its program. The program ranged from contemporary ballet to post-modern to gestural to dance-theater to evocative while all being extremely physical movement techniques with differing music (contemporary classical, electronic, sound score, audible sound from the dancers and world music percussive influences). Alternative Motion Project was also able to include a diverse range of art forms showcased in each performance (music, dance, video projection) as well as a variety of cast sizes for each world premiere (8, 2, 3, 6, 5, 7). In terms of accessibility, Alternative Motion Project provided several discounted opportunities for those with financial barriers to attend, including a Pay-as-Able show. In addition, Alternative Motion Project provided an ASL interpreter for one of its shows; while this show was advertised through VSA and its marketing materials, Alternative Motion Project can continue to reach out more specifically to Deaf/Hard of Hearing communities for future projects. Alternative Motion Project's 5th Season Performance was also held in an ADA accessible theater (The Lab Theater) that was close to some bus lines/public transportation. Alternative Motion Project set out to make the artistic work intellectually accessible for all of its audiences through its Post-Show Q and A, Behind the Scenes Video during the actual performance, Rehearsal Video Blog and the Audience Create-a-Dance, choreographed by company member, Jesse Schmitz-Boyd.",,14596,"Other, local or private",24596,,"Danielle Robinson-Prater, Katherine Dunbar, Amy Anderson, Kristin Howe, Joanna Lees, Dameun Strange, Stephanie Flanagan, Andrew Leitch",0.00,"Alternative Motion Project","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 5th Annual Performance, including the creation of six new dance works, a rehearsal process and audience engagement activities.

","721 paid and 785 total people attended performances producing gross ticket revenue of $15,552. This was a 27% increase in paid attendance over 2015, and a 56.6% increase in ticket revenue; Audience members offered 20 written comments on Facebook and 43 comments on written surveys (84% of self-selected respondents) attesting to their favorable experience and engagement. As proposed, Ananya Dance Theatre created and presented two performances of ""Horidraa: Golden Healing"" at The O'Shaughnessy at Saint Catherine University, St Paul, September 16-17, 2016. The full-length work focused on the role of women as healers and sustainers of communities. Artistic Director Ananya Chatterjea choreographed using contemporary Indian American dance. Her collaborating partners included guest artist Shá Cage; behavioral artist Marcus Young; composer/instrumentalist Greg Schutte; composer Andrea Reynolds aka Queen Drea; vocalists Mankwe Ndosi, Pooja Goswami Pavan, Michelle Kinney, and Tenzin Ngawang; costume designer Annie Cady; scenic designer Alison Hiltner; lighting designer Kevin A. Jones; and media designer Darren Johnson. Dancers included Leila Awadallah, Ananya Chatterjea, Renée Copeland, Kealoha Ferreira, Jay Galtney, Prakshi Malik, Lela Pierce, Hui Niu Wilcox, Alessandra Lebea Williams, Magnolia Yang Sao Yia, and apprentices Holo Lue Choy, Sophia Hill, and Julia Gay. Emma Marlar served as production manager, assisted by Nakita Vang as stage manager and rehearsal assistant. Story-sharing conversations on the nature of healing included the insights of Dr. Madhuri Shors, Dr. Roli Dwivedi, Dr. Bharati Acharya, Nasreen Mohamed, Stephanie Watts, Nimo Farh, Nekessa Opoti, and Lula Saleh. An Audience Empowerment Workshop, conducted for the general public, August 22, 2016, was attended by 40 people at the Frye Theater at The O'Shaughnessy, while 65 students and members of youth communities of color attended an invited preview performance, September 15, 2016. Our philosophy of #occupydance informed our creation of an interactive audience experience that brought people into the world of ""Horidraa."" The experience included performers moving among audience members in the lobby pre-performance, and the opportunity to touch and be touched by turmeric paste, with its external medicinal value and temporary skin coloring post-performance. We anticipated serving a range of individuals – artists, communities of color, women and girls, social justice activists – who are part of our audiences, ensemble, and decision-makers. Our vision of audiences for this project comprised a cross-section of local communities that included members of local immigrant and youth communities. We anticipated that at least 25% of the audience would be members of Asian communities, Black/African American communities, and White/not Hispanic, and that youth 19-24 and adults 25-64 would comprise at least a quarter of the audience. We reached, if not exceeded, the intended breadth of community participation, but not the anticipated depth of particular demographics. We reached artists, communities of color, women and girls, and social justice activists. Of 785 total audience members at two O'Shaughnessy performances, 51 (6.5%) returned written surveys. Based on these self-selected responses, 56.9% were first time attendees of Ananya Dance Theatre; 74.5% were women; 37.3% were LGBTQ and 60.8% straight; and 7.8% had a disability. Minneapolis residents comprised 43.1% of the audience, with St Paul residents represented by 27.4%. Attendees hailed also from at least six other states and Laos, Liberia, and India. Age breakdown: (a) 16-20 = 5.9%; (b) 21-30 = 25.5%; (c) 31-49 = 23.5%; and (d) 50-79 = 39.2%. Household income breakdown: (a) Less than $10,000 = 11.8%; (b) $10,000-43,999 = 33.3%; (c) $44,000-76,999 = 17.6%; (d) $77,000-99,000 = 15.7%; (e) $100,000+ = 13.7%. Self-identifications: (a) African American = 13.7%; (b) African Immigrant = 5.9%; (c) Asian American = 11.8%; (d) Caucasian = 43.2%; (e) European American = 11.8%; (f) Latin = 1%; (g) Native American = 5.9%. Staff of The O'Shaughnessy told us that, based on their visual observation, Ananya Dance Theatre's audience was among the most diverse of the many presentations on its stage. Our successful fundraising for this project provided the opportunity to allocate a significant expenditure of ~$7,200 to advertising. We were able to supplement online marketing by The O'Shaughnessy with Minnesota Public Radio and MinnPost.com, and to have a paid online presence on Twitter and Facebook, and print presence in the Star Tribune, North News, and Highland Villager. In the process, we added several hundred new followers to our Facebook page, bringing the total to more than 3,000, the second-highest online following of any dance organization in Minnesota (as of this report date).",,80000,"Other, local or private ",90000,,"Gina Kundan, David Mura, Robert Lynn, Gary Peterson, Prachee Mukherjee, Elizabeth Altheimer, Danielle Mkali, Anitra Cottledge, Saymoukda Vongsay, Divya Karan, Janis Lane-Ewart",0.00,"Ananya Dance Theatre","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support ",,"Funding to create and present, Horidraa: Golden Healing, a new collaborative dance work celebrating the healing practices by women in global societies of color to sustain communities.

We certainly accomplished our artistic goal of building cross-cultural understanding by using multicultural music to foster cultural identity conversations. This concert occurred after the Jamar Clark shooting and was in response to that. We used African-American poetry as well as Civil Rights songs including Ain't Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around and We Shall Overcome. We talked about the context of these songs and invited our audience into this perspective. We also accomplished our goal of collaborating with different levels/ages of musicians to build awareness of and encourage music as a lifelong pursuit. Youth sang with Central High School youth and both ComMUSICation choirs (including the training choir) and listened to each other sing. Unfortunately, the pen pal project didn't happen due to the tragedies at Central High School. The challenges were scheduling and communication due to Central happenings. Something that truly worked was having so many different youth on the stage. Next time, we will have our training choir only on stage for part of the performance as they lost their attention span and thus were not able to fully engage after an amount of time. We will use watching a performance as a measure of growth. This performance didn't have the best turnout, but taught us some important lessons. Only 2/3 of our training choir youth attended this performance, which taught us an important lesson; they aren't in the program for the performance aspect, but rather the relationship and 1:1 time they receive from our teachers. This made us rethink how we talk about performances and get buy-in from youth and their families. Audience-wise, we had great board turnout, which has been a struggle in the past.

At least 25% of audience members will be attending a Contempo Physical Dance performance for the first time. Post-performance one-on-one meetings will be held with each of the dancers. Patron data will be reviewed to determine the number of new audience members.","100% of artists participating in this project indicated that they experienced artistic growth and diversified their vocabulary of highly physical movement. More than 25% of audience members saw Contempo Physical Dance for the first time. Marciano Silva dos Santos and Carl Flink, the choreographers, grew artistically, challenged their thinking and expanded their repertoire of highly physical movement. At the beginning of the creative process they began with one choreographer creating a movement idea and then the other choreographer taking that idea and modifying it. Marciano said that he came up with new ideas because he was able to come from a different starting piece, shifting Carl’s vocabulary and fusing it with Afro-Brazilian subtleties. Carl challenged Marciano to use more partnering work and movement that went upside down. Marciano, on the other hand, challenged Carl to use more polyrhythmic movements. Both choreographers used highly physical movements and it was interesting to watch the dancers increase their range of movement with Contempo dancers finding the partnering sections more difficult and Black Label Movement dancers finding movements like shoulder and hip isolations challenging while moving so physically. By the end of the process both Marciano and Carl were able to anticipate some of the creative choices of the other and it was less obvious who was making which choice. In the end, the work was a seamless collaboration and even the choreographers couldn’t tell you who came up with which idea because they worked together so much. The collaborative project resulted in a duet for Marciano and Carl and an ensemble piece performed by both companies. There were four public performances at the Cowles Center in Minneapolis. We had several audience engagement activities leading up to the performance and two post-performance talkbacks. We had both regular Contempo and regular Black Label Movement audience members who were being exposed to the other company for the first time and learning about the creative process. A comment we heard several times from different people in the audience was that a collaboration such as this could go very wrong because of such different aesthetics and approaches, but we were successful. Before the premiere of this collaborative work, both companies showed a piece from their respective repertoires. Audience members stated they could clearly see both companies in the premiere and that the voices worked well together. Both choreographers and companies worked really well together. The only major challenge was for the choreographers to agree on costume design because they had drastically different opinions, but through conversation they were able to resolve their differences. There isn’t much we would change about this project if we had the opportunity to repeat it. And we hope we do have the opportunity for future collaborations. The only thing the choreographers discovered was that they weren’t getting anywhere at the beginning during their initial planning meetings, which were verbal in nature. But they found that the collaboration flowed when they were working kinesthetically together, so I think they would go straight to the studio in the future. We successfully reached our intended community both in terms of our artists and audience. We had a cast of racially diverse dancers with artists of color representing more than half of the ensemble. We also did significant outreach activities including an episode on TPT television highlighting the creative process, spotlights in local newspapers and magazines, e-blasts, social media promotion, and Contempo’s audience advocates program among other activities. This resulted in a racially diverse audience, including adults, seniors, students and children. We performed at the Cowles Center, which is an ADA compliant venue, we had discounted tickets for students, seniors and children and student rush tickets were available. We also had an ASL interpreter for one of our shows. He interpreted during the show and for our post-performance talkback. All of our pre and post community outreach activities were free of charge and open to the public and we offered a series of open classes, open rehearsals and discussions with Marciano and Carl. These experiences deepened the understanding of the work and the collaborative nature of this project and we could see from the questions asked at our talkback that the audience was intrigued and engaged. Our actual population benefiting was different that our estimated in terms of age groups. We had a good turn-out of students, seniors and adults, but we had less children than anticipated because we did not do a student matinee performance. We had hoped to do a matinee, but at the time of our proposal it was only a possibility, and we made it clear in our application that our conversations about it was only preliminary and it was not confirmed. We, in collaboration with the Cowles Center, reached out to numerous groups to share the opportunity. We could not find enough interested student groups to attend due to the time period of our performances. It was late enough that all schools were out, but early enough that all summer school programs were just beginning or hadn’t started at all. In the future, we will avoid this time frame because we found it difficult to engage a K-12 audience.",,17425,"Other, local or private",27425,,"David Hoffman-Dachelet, Anthony Galloway, Shih-Yu Kuo, Jenny Pennaz, Nancy Rosenbaum",0.00,"Contempo Physical Dance","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to create, produce and perform two new highly physical dance works in collaboration with Black Label Movement.

Survey responses collected from participants, neighboring businesses, and the neighborhood association all reflected that the mural is a very valuable addition to the community. The creative teen group is a fully functioning collaborative supported by teaching mentor artists and lead artists. Our Teen Arts Council program reached all artistic goals set forth of completing the minimum requirement of one public art project. We witnessed an interesting change in the core group in how they viewed their individual and collective roles. Through various conversations, they concluded that there was less of a desire for a council concept since community partner development and site evaluation were laborious and sometimes intimidating. They were ultimately much more interested in focusing on the design and execution of creative public art projects instead of being both creators and an administrative council. This approach will allow them to best apply their time to project development and design sessions in future projects. The group thus renamed themselves the Youth Arts Collaborative. Staff will identify community partners and locations for future projects and share the external partnering processes with the group, enabling them to indirectly learn some of the administrative tasks. Also, our original model of majority recruitment responsibilities by the teens was inadequate. In the future staff will take a more active role in upfront recruitment with a more extensive social media campaign and through local schools. Youth Arts Collaborative partnered with Audubon Minnesota (environmental conservation organization), Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association in Minneapolis and local businesses. The project entailed designing and installing a large mural that depicts what it means to live in a river city where protecting clean water resources for birds and people is not only a responsibility but a way of life. Audubon Minnesota taught the teens and Articulture staff about water conservation issues and migratory birds who rely on Minnesota’s water resources. This encouraged the teens to think of solutions to these clean water conservation issues. Their challenge was to use their art to educate the public about this issue and stimulate social change. Youth Arts Collaborative planned a community paint day where the community came out to participate and learn about the educational project. Our biggest challenge was the unusually high number of rain days, causing scheduled paint days to be canceled. During the installation we received a lot of positive feedback from citizens and the local businesses. Youth Arts Collaborative mentoring artists and our lead artist all did a fabulous job of supporting the teens throughout the project process, keeping them on track and allowing them to take ownership of the design process. Both the mentors and the lead artist have reported their observations of artistic growth in many if not all of the teens during the project. Some teens at the beginning of the project were more reserved or made negative comments about their artistic abilities. However, they progressed into more confident young artists who sought out opportunities by taking the lead on design elements or worked on improving their painting skills and taking initiative to have ownership in developing parts of the project. Our hope was to engage a core group of urban teens in a meaningful public arts program, and to connect with the community at large where the public art would be installed. We successfully recruited, educated and inspired 9 local teens who exceeded our expectations and took on the task of also honing and clarifying what they wanted the program to be—less administrative and more about being a creative collaboration. Audubon Minnesota was the critical community partner Clean Water for Birds and People with the creation of the Mississippi Flyway mural. A site was identified in the Standish Ericsson neighborhood and we received a vested interest and support from the Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association. Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association helped to get out information about the new mural in the neighborhood through their communications network, which also served to cultivate community volunteers for both the public community paint day and the final unveiling event. Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association also arranged for wall preparation services, which included power washing and priming the wall. The community paint day event successfully engaged 67 people from the community where the mural was installed. We had single adults, young couples and children of all ages come to paint and ask questions about the project. Information about the Youth Arts Collaborative our public arts program was distributed with the intent of introducing the Articulture to new families and teens for future projects. A local business, A Baker’s Wife, located directly across the street from the mural, donated freshly baked doughnuts while Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association provided beverages and pizza for both the community paint day and the final unveiling event. The mural is located in Minneapolis at the corner of 42 St and 28 Ave South. The corner has a busy Metro bus stop, is near the Light Rail Blue line, and there are more than 8 local businesses that surround it, which makes the site a perfect place to engage community members where they live. It is at an intersection where there is a lot of car and foot traffic and a restaurant with sidewalk seating directly across from the mural. Lake Hiawatha is located two blocks south of the mural site, of which the community, city and park service are attempting to address toxic health issues of the lake due to runoff. The mural design spotlighted through text and imagery—succeeding in designing public art for social change.",,5000,"Other, local or private",15000,,"Alyssa Diamond, Benjamin Fossen, David Karjanen, Loren Kollmar, Dagmara Larsen, Lida Tschider, Doug Van Beek",0.00,ArtiCulture,"Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to launch a Teen Arts Council, pairing urban youth with guidance from mentors and lead artists to develop skills in creative design, leadership and community activism.

Adults with developmental disabilities report they have gained new skills in using art materials and tools to create art, as well as an increased appreciation of nature. Evaluation plan includes a survey of artists, program participants and support staff, as well as informal observation of artists working with participants. In addition, a portfolio of work created over the duration of the program is created for each participant and reviewed by staff and administration from each organization involved.","The outcome for the organizations participating in the project is continued work with ArtStart-we believe because of the successful engagement of artists, particularly, to bring out each participants artist within. We have been able to deepen our partnerships and add new partners, an unexpected serendipity, and continue our work with this amazing community of emerging artists. The project achieved the following goals as assessed by the evaluation using informal observation and surveys of key stakeholders: 1.) to increase opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities to communicate feelings and ideas through art making experiences led by an artist and naturalist; 2.) to celebrate and share each participant's unique artistic expression; and, 3.) to deepen partnerships between ArtStart and other community organizations. Certainly the artist-naturalist team was one of the strengths of the project as participants explored nature before participating in the art making portion of the project. A challenging aspect of the project was the reaction of some participants to being in nature. While all chose this experience, when faced with a more open environment, some participants were fearful. Others found it hard to engage all of their senses particularly smell and touch to explore natural objects. The art making sessions at each group's respective home base were most successful, as participants seemed more comfortable in that space. Artists helped each participant keep a portfolio of their art work which ranged from drawings, paintings, prints, and weavings, as well as a mixed media piece inspired by nature exploration. To celebrate their successful completion of the project, the Lifeworks and Kaposia participants displayed their art work in ArtStart's Art Gallery throughout the duration of the project and also at The Show art gallery as part of the April 2016 Art Crawl event. A reception was held at ArtStart for participants and families. TSE participants hosted a reception for the art mural created as part of the project at their site. The art exhibits were the highlight of the project as the artists and naturalist were present and could talk directly to family members and other staff of the organizations involved. Probably, the only difference which we would make to the project is to keep in better communication prior to the grant decision-making process with one of the organizations named in the project (Highland Friendship) who had received a large state grant and could not fit this project into their schedule. We were able to reach 60 adults with developmental disabilities thanks to the wonderful support staff from each organization who helped us identify and select a group of 8-10 participants. The invitation for participants to be part of this project was open to all at a site, but staff from each site had the final word in the composition of the group. Criteria for selection ranged from interest in art to ability to adapt to a new setting. The range of diversity in this project included adults who were mobile to 2 adults who needed wheel chair access. Staff from each organization were present at the workshops to assist the artist-naturalist team with special needs a participant might have. Adults had a range of learning disabilities, but all loved to make art. Another interesting point of diversity that we did not count on and that was quite a contrast, was the way each organization involved in the project saw their work with adults with developmental disabilities. Participants from Lifeworks were involved in a daycare program as they were not yet ready for placement in a community-based work program; TSE participants had jobs within the community and a common work schedule dictated who could participate in the project. Participants from Kaposia had many more independent living skills. Transportation was not an issue for them, as they all knew how to take a bus to The Show located in Lowertown, St Paul, while Lifeworks and TSE participants were brought by van. There was little cultural diversity in the Lifeworks and Kaposia group (1%), but nearly 50% of participants from TSE were culturally diverse.",,7850,"Other, local or private",17850,,"Barb Fleig, Janice Hamilton, Sabrina Sutliff-Gross, Elizabeth Wright, Deb Holtz, Linda Stuckey, David Swenson",0.00,ArtStart,"Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for ArtLife, an eight-week program for adults with developmental disabilities from Lifeworks, TSE, and Highland Friendship Club combining art making with direct, guided exploration of nature by a naturalist-artist team using handicapped accessible",2015-09-28,2016-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Carol,Sirrine,ArtStart,"1459 St Clair Ave","St Paul",MN,55105-2338,"(651) 698-2787 ",carol@artstart.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-625,"Bethany Hansen: Administration, youth programming, artistic; Mary Smith: Organizational development, volunteerism, education; Daniel Peltzman: Administration, organizational development; Bill Venne: Fundraising; Sarah Jordet: Organizational development, administration, artistic; Kate Roarty: Audience development, administration, volunteerism; Craig Harris: Organizational development, administration, artistic; Mohamed Samatar: Artistic, community service, fundraising; Rosemary Nevils: Artistic, Community Education, fundraising.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 32562,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","We expect to attract an audience that includes 20% new patrons through increased publicity efforts.

We tracked audience numbers and used sign-in sheets and staff interactions with visitors to identify those who were new to the park. While the threat of bad weather reduced attendance at two performances overall audience numbers were good, engagement was high and our outcomes were met. We successfully achieved the artistic goals for our 2016 Summer Performance Series. On June 12 the Minnesota Sinfonia presented a well-received concert of familiar and less well known pieces of classical music. This performance was dedicated to the memory of the Art Park’s founder. On June 26 director Jim Cunningham and a cast of 3 actors presented The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged). This parody of all 37 Shakespeare’s plays brought a bit of Fringe Festival sensibility to the park’s tradition of “Shakespeare in the Park.” July 10 Aunt Beverly and Voice of Culture performed a combination of traditional and contemporary African stories and drum and dance from West Africa and Afro-Hip-Hop. The performers were Beverly Cottman and young students of Voice of Culture led by Kenna Cottman. On July 24 the High-48’s presented a concert of classical bluegrass and original songs with a wide range of influences beyond Bill Monroe, and Flatt and Scruggs. In our grant application this slot was intended to be filled by the group Buckets and Tap Shoes but we were unable to keep in contact with them through the planning process and made this substitution. The connection between the two – they are both high energy performers whose work features driving rhythms. On August 7 Mu Daiko, an ensemble of Mu Performing Arts, filled the Theater in the Woods with the sounds of Japanese Taiko Drumming. On August 21, Mixed Precipitation presented “Donald Giovanni in Cornlandia: A Picnic Operetta.” This was a 1980’s pop retelling of the 1787 Mozart opera Don Gionvanni the style of classical Italian comedic opera meets ‘80s hair bands and modern day politics. This performance in particular brought many new people to the park who knew of Mixed Precipitation’s work but not about the park. Our community of Dakota County and Eagan is made up primarily of families with young and school-age children, and a growing number of older adults. According to our surveys, this is the audience who attended the Summer Performance Series this season; roughly 60% of the audience was from Dakota County and the other 40% was from the greater Twin Cities area. Each performance in the series attracted slightly different audiences: the Minnesota Sinfonia trended older and more patrons had physical limitations; the High 48s, Mu Daiko and Voice of Culture attracted more families, the Shakespeare and Mixed Precipitation audiences were mostly adults. As a whole the audience continued to be more ethnically diverse. Since these performances are presented without tickets we cannot use sales to track the number of new and returning audience members. Instead we use sign-in/mailing list sheets and audiences surveys. From this information we know that at least 1/3 of the audience was new to the park and many commented that they had been meaning to come and finally did.",,17495,"Other, local or private",27495,,"Jina Penn-Tracy, Wayne Potratz, Kirk Muhlenbruck, Rhea Benz, Cheryl Caponi, Renee Ervasti, Juli Johnson",0.00,"Caponi Art Park AKA Caponi Art Park and Learning Center","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 2016 Summer Performance Series featuring six performing groups in the Park’s Theater in the Woods amphitheater.

Our evaluation plan includes; audience surveys, Post-performance feedback, audience video interviews, as well as post show press and reviews.","With Audio Description and American Sign Language performances we feel that out outreach efforts resulted in real community diversity. There were 436 patrons for Finding Fish, with an average house size of 31. 104 were persons of color making up about 24% of the audience. 13 patrons identified as seniors and 59 as students. The major artistic goal of Finding Fish was to bring nature and weather into the theater as central characters and intricate parts of a narrative that explores our human relationship with the natural world. We wanted the audience to witness through the continued presence of weather, nature’s unfolding in a constantly changing and eternal flux both beautiful and terrifying, dominating and engulfing the powerless creatures within its grasp. We achieved this mostly through video design with a series of moving/living images rear projected on a scrim that spread across the stage of a Maine seascape framed by pines trees standing on the waters’ edge. These moving images changed from scene to scene from a gathering storm, to a sunrise with a pinkish cloudy sky to a fog and a starry night. This was accompanied by a sound design of water lapping on the shore, waves crashing, foghorns, bells and whistle buoys that gave it all a sense of place, presence and authenticity. Thanks to the talent, skill and imagination of our video/sound designer, who happens to run a small theater in Maine during summers, what we thought would be a major challenge came together quite smoothly and rendered the effect that we hoped to achieve. Somewhat more challenging, in a good way, was the character of Fiona, the fisherman’s wife who in the play is in fact a sea creature, somewhat in the order of a Selkie. The question for us was how does a human being play an animal, without mimicking the traits of that animal’s behavior? How would an animal behave if it had a human body? How can she communicate when she cannot speak? Moreover in all of Fiona’s entrances she is in the nude (clothes are just annoying for an animal), but is quickly covered up by one of the three fishermen. The play’s point about Fiona is that her nude flesh is not her real skin or her identity. Her real skin is a seal skin which she needs to survive in the natural world and has been taken away and hidden by her husband so that she can find fish for him. She is being exploited. Its’ difficult idea to convey, but the great work by the actress playing Fiona and our talented, vigilant director we succeeded in giving nature a voice. Artistically Finding Fish was a great success in our own estimation and a challenge and joy for all the artists who took part. We are most grateful for this experience. The principle community outreach goal around the production of Finding Fish was to raise awareness about the state of our oceans and our natural environment. We held a panel on October 16 titled The Future of Fish and the State of our Oceans. The featured panelist were Jeffery Bolster, historian and author of The Mortal Sea, a book that takes us through a millennium-long environmental history of our impact on one of the largest ecosystems in the world, and Julie Morris, a former commissioner of the Florida fish and wildlife agency and a member of the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council. On October 23 our feature speaker was Indigenous Nibiwalk Water Walker, Sharon Day who has led walks along the length of the Mississippi, Ohio and Minnesota rivers in extended ceremonies in prayer for our waters. Biology Professor Joshua Lallaman from Saint Mary’s University in Winona spoke about issues of sustainability in Minnesota fisheries. Playwright Carlyle Brown conducted audience talk-backs following every performance. Our program included an overview on Cod fish in the gulf of Maine, where the play is set. Resources for more information and ways for audiences to get involved such as The Ocean Conservancy and The Environmental Defense Fund, a short essay on how these issues of Ocean sustainability relate to Minnesota, and Governor Mark Dayton’s Water Stewardship Pledge with notes actions citizens can take from the local Alliance of Sustainability. Our opening night buffet was provided by Coastal Seafoods. We held a special matinee performance for junior and senior students from Patrick Henry High School in North Minneapolis an age and racial demographic we did not anticipate, as well as the Indigenous youth who attended the performance with Water Walker, Sharon Day. One night a Somali playwright talked about how the presence of the sea in the play reminded him of the desert. And on another night an African-American man who had just been fishing that day, caught a White Bass he could hardly wait to fillet, after seeing the play and hearing the talk back, wished he had thrown it back.

We achieved our goal of sharing a wide variety of chamber music, from early instruments and music of Lyra Baroque to the Classical Contemporary music of Zeitgeist. The concerts went very well, were generally very well received, and the artists were pleased with the venue and the artistic outcomes. We had expected larger audiences, and had hoped in particular to attract larger numbers from teenagers through age 50. More work will have to be done in terms of contacts with area high school music programs. For future seasons we have made several adjustments – 1. Modified ticket prices so student prices are age 18 and under. (This season student prices applied to ages 12 and under.) 2. Be more realistically conservative in our audience projections in estimating ticket revenue as a match to the grant. We had hoped for 80-90 per concert, and actually ranged from 60-70. We reached the intended community. The community reached was similar to past years, with about 28% from the Lakeville area, 11% Apple Valley, 11% Burnsville, 11% from Minneapolis/St Paul, 6% Eden Prairie, with attendance reported from 13 different cities of towns from about a 50-mile radius.

We intend to send out a survey to all ticket buyers after our production, with the goal of having at least 75% of attendees state that our show met or exceeded their expectations. We will count the number of tickets sold to our special matinee performance. We will design and distribute a survey to all ticket buyers at the completion of our production.","Of the patrons who attended, over 85% rated that the production met or exceeded their expectations, and of participants, over 90% said they would participate in a Chaska Valley Family Theatre production again in the future. Additionally, responses from three senior center leaders indicated that 100% of participants to the senior matinee commented that they enjoyed their outing and would do it again of given a chance. We met most of our goals for this production, though we fell short is a few areas. We held eight performances for the public during our run from February 26 to March 6, 2016, and also held a special weekday matinee luncheon performance geared toward senior citizens. Goal achievement was as follows: We created an artistically excellent, attended by nearly 2200 patrons; we had hoped for 3000. We provided a quality, participatory experience for all involved, especially families. Our senior matinee lunch and a show was attended by 140 patrons, and was a truly memorable experience. We had hoped to get up to 300 for this performance. Both our participant and audience survey results that reflected a high level of satisfaction. We were unable to arrange an ASL-interpreted performance for this production. In the end, our artistic and participation goals were solidly met. Survey comments from audiences including words like ""fantastic costumes and scenery"" and ""glorious musical performances."" Participant survey comments included ""this is the most fun I have had in years!"" Since this was our organizations 20th anniversary production, director and organization co-founder Paula Atkins reached out to many participants from over the years and encouraged them to participate, truly resulting in an ""anniversary,"" celebratory experience. As older-generation musicals, like ""My Fair Lady"" age, so too do the audiences. We were successful bringing those people to this production. Where we fell short, perhaps, is getting more student attendees. 85% of tickets were sold to adults, which was not unexpected, given the fact that the majority of the cast were adults. However, earlier, more thorough marketing to schools, or more discounting of student tickets may have resulted in better youth attendance. We knew going in that, due to the nature of this show (older-style musical, fewer children in cast), that we might have difficulty drawing younger audiences. This came to be true, but overall, we served our targeted demographic well with this production. That is, families from within our community who we serve with quality, affordable, LOCAL, entertainment. In particular, for participants, we were able to draw both old and new amateur participants from within the community for on and off stage roles in the production. Of specific note was the special senior matinee, where busing was provided and a special meal and show were held. In this instance, we were able to bring quality, affordable live musical theater to people who may not otherwise be able to attend due to lack of transportation or funds. One area we continue to struggle is in gaining traction with hearing disabled persons. In the case of this show, we were unable to coordinate a specific date that worked to have our ASL interpreters come to provide their services, so no ASL show was performed. Past efforts have been hit and miss in attendance, with the bulk attending being ASL students/teachers, and often families of deaf persons. We continue to work with local groups like VSA, and schools for the deaf, to develop joint partnerships to try to encourage deaf students and families to attend our shows.",,46600,"Other, local or private",55038,,"Daniel Bergner, Jennifer Boothroyd, William Coldwell, Anna Olson, Courtney Pernat, Lawrence Schroeder, Kevin Spencer, Katie Spille, Mark Taintor, Robert Thomas",0.00,"Chaska Valley Family Theatre","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for nine performances of My Fair Lady at Chanhassen High School's Performing Arts Center in February and March 2016.",2015-10-26,2016-03-06,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Katie,Spille,"Chaska Valley Family Theatre","PO Box 641",Chaska,MN,55317,"(952) 250-7206 ",cvftmail@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Carver,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-630,"Bethany Whitehead: Fundraising, general management, organizational development; Alex Legeros: General management, artistic, finance; Amanda Dlouhy: Artistic, general management, organizational development; Janice Johnson: Audience development, organizational development, education; Nate Lovdahl: Fundraising, education, organizational development; Debra Stone: Artistic, education, community development; Becky Stibbe: Fundraising, audience development, general management; Patricia Vaillancourt: General management, audience development, computer systems; Teresa Mock: Artistic, audience development, organizational development.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 32567,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","4000 people will attend our three separate concert events. Audience surveys will show 65% of attendees come from north Minneapolis. Attendees will be surveyed at the final concert and counted at all three concerts.","Over 4000 attendees came to our Live on the Drive events throughout the summer of 2016 and were exposed to 3 different artist groups. Over 1/4 of attendees were attending for the first time this summer and every attendee we engaged with, left an overwhelming positive response to our concert series. Our artistic goals for the 2016 Live on the Drive concert series covered three areas, the artistic performances, and the audience/community and community awareness. Our first goal was to bring a “diversity of artistic talents together… to highlight their talents and to provide public arts programming where there is little.” Through our three concerts we featured three diverse artistic performers. Our performers were Rio Nido, #MPLS and Ashley Dubose. We were able to feature an Artist Spotlight during an intermission in August due to a total of four rain cancellations throughout the summer. Maria Isa was the featured local poet, in August. Our second goal was to draw the Northside community together and to get them to engage with each other. We saw evidence of this through strong attendance, much like the last couple years. In 2014, we saw an average of 1300 attendees per concert and in 2015, we saw an average of about 1400 attendees at each of the three concerts. This year we had about the same attendance as last year. We were confident that we were going to have an even larger turnout than the previous years since we increased our marketing however, we were struck with a lot of rain which caused us to have to move performances to the assigned rain dates. We are proud that our event is remaining established as a premiere community gathering. After asking many attendees if this was their first Live on the Drive Concert event, one out of every four said it was their first time and that they heard about it previous years from a neighbor or friend. The majority of the attendees lived in 55412 and 55411 North Minneapolis zip codes, and many came from Robbinsdale, whose borders rests on the adjacent side of Victory Memorial Drive. We feel that we were successful in reaching an audience that reflected the diversity of residents in north Minneapolis, but did not actually reach our ambitious numbers for audience turn out. As noted above, over 75% of our audience came from the direct and adjacent zip codes and we also attracted residents from throughout the Twin Cities. The crowd at each concert was notably diverse in racial make-up and age, however we had no measure for socio-economic diversity. We believe our engagement has consistently reached our board and diverse audience and was accomplished this year through our marketing: yard signs, posters, word of mouth, mailings social media and newspaper ads. In the future I think we will make greater efforts at more targeted outreach to cultural groups. This year, two out of three performances featured artist groups of color. We felt very good about the access to all of our concert series. All concerts and planning meetings happened in ADA Accessible spaces. Our event is close to public transit and is completely free. We will be reaching out to local translators to further reach a larger audience through multi-lingual posters next year. We planned to implement that in 2016 however, it was one of those things that was unfortunately set on the back burner while searching for a new executive director.",,10000,"Other, local or private",20000,,"Bob Colbert, Kimberly Caprini, Stephanie Gasca, Jonathan Palmer, Jonathan Healy, Caroline Field, Peony Hildreth, Chaun Webster, Ray Mohr, Dwquita Nash, Ryan Williams-Virden",0.00,"Cleveland Neighborhood Association","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for Live On the Drive, a free concert series held on Victory Memorial Drive in North Minneapolis featuring high caliber musicians and celebrating the diverse talents of the community.

The leads were excellent and well-cast. You felt like they had popped out of the Disney movie onto the Cross Community Players stage. The quality of the singing, acting, dancing, and music provided the community entertainment that was enjoyed by all. Providing quality theater for the community was a need that was met with this project! The cast was good size filled with parents and their children working side by side as actors, musicians and back stage assistants. The audience loved the show! We continue to get feedback that this was one of our best shows. Due to construction in the high schools in the district, it was necessary to produce this show in one of the middle schools in the district. This provided us with no orchestra pit which is something we rely on for our summer productions. Fortunately, this specific show was orchestrated for a smaller group of musicians thus it was possible to incorporate the musicians within the stage set-up. At first, this appeared to be an incredibly difficult situation, but the artistic team was quite creative in placing the pit within the scenery. This placement ended up providing strong support for the actors on stage and was not a distraction for the audience members. There was a theft of money out of the purses that were stored in the ladies dressing room during tech week. In the future, we will make sure to provide secure storage of valuables during the rehearsal and production process. The perpetrators were caught and over 60% of the cash was returned and no other valuables were taken from the purses. Having done these shows for many years. The community we served was fairly accurately described in the grant application. Listed below are the ways we met our goals for making our project open and accessible. 50 free tickets were distributed to the food shelf recipients. Several community organizations took advantage of our group rates. A wide variety of ages attended the show. Two matinees, which were designed for convenience for families and for seniors not wanting to drive at night. Family involvement could be found in all aspects of the production. One performance was provided with ASL interpreters and Audio Describer. Our ASL and AD patrons were provided 2 tickets at a 50% discount. We utilized the extensive VSA Minnesota publicity network. We included the Wheelchair, ASL, Audio Description and Large Print accessibility symbols in our publicity.

Guest and artist feedback will be collected through in-formal interviews post-performance and audience member feedback will be gathered through post-performance surveys.","535 audience members attended all of our performances spread across 8 different nights. 96% of audiences reported having a positive experience at the performance. We're even happier to report that 94% of audiences reported learning something new about the issues and topics on which we presented far exceeding our pre-show estimate of 70%. After an extraordinary season of laughter around political issues, The Theater of Public Policy achieved all of the goals it set out to accomplish. Overall, we encountered far more strengths than challenges in this process finding many of our strengths were the result of thoughtful planning and intentional follow-through with a clear focus on defined goals. One of the goals for which we’re most proud is paying our performers for their time and talent. Working artists are often sidelined or expected to offer their art for the love of it without financial compensation. While our artist cost comprises the largest portion of our budget, we're thrilled that we can offer pay rates that match or beat much larger theaters. As we undertook this project, one of the biggest unknowns was bringing in outside artists to participate in our show. With few precedents for bringing different mixed media artists together to create art for one production, we faced the challenge of figuring it out without much guidance. While a challenge, it was also an amazing opportunity to create a model that would suit our needs and reflect our unique creative vision. We invited 8 different regional artists to create works of art inspired by what happened onstage. They created works using markers, watercolors, broken glass mosaic, chalk, pencil and more. While artists mentioned that the subject matter, time limits and live event structure made the opportunity challenging, these constraints pushed them in ways that they valued and all found the overall experience positive. Other arts organizations have contacted me about how they might do something similar at their events. With a limited marketing budget, our ability to devote resources to social media outreach is extremely valuable. To bring diverse communities to our shows, we sent hundreds of personal invites to people and organizations that are stakeholders in these community issues. While not every invitation was accepted, plenty were which allowed us to have the experience of audience/panel Q and A reflected in the artistic process. While many theater companies may explore a relevant community issue in one production, we were able to cover eight very different topics in one season. We featured varied guests including Lt. Governor Tina Smith, Minneapolis City Councilman Abdi Warsame, Reps Pat Garafalo and Frank Hornstein, former Minneapolis Mayor RT Rybak exploring issues such as affordable housing, water quality, small town vitality, the history of Minneapolis skid row and the proposed sandpiper pipeline. Overall, we focused on issues facing communities on a neighborhood, city, state and national level reflecting where we’ve been while thinking about how to make our future better. Pushing our success further, repeating a run of shows would have us asking how can we be more relevant to the community and how can we involve artists in new ways that expand their role in the show. The answers would be the basis for future goals. Through intentional planning to ensure those in the house saw themselves reflected in the audience, we succeeded in reaching our intended community with both onstage cast and audience participants. Though not always perfect, when we did encounter a challenge, we made adjustments to ensure our future work was better. Using post-show surveys to gauge new learning from show content, we can emphatically say we reached an audience that was unfamiliar with many of these issues. In several cases where people reported minimal learning from show content, they indicated that they worked closely with the issue on a daily basis so felt they would be comfortable talking about it on stage. While our style of performance is surely on the fringes of political discourse, we do hope that we are reaching people making decisions. Our show was built around the idea that there are not wizards behind the curtain, but we do acknowledge that there are decision makers who go to work every day to make policy happen. This season in particular, we feel strongly that we reached not only political outsiders, but the political class itself. Among those in attendance were city council members, the CEO of the largest affordable housing provider west of Chicago, current and former Minnesota legislators and others. We make a big deal that political people are just like everyone else, but these attendees did humble us. The estimated populations benefiting from our performances were consistent with the actual demographics. Amongst all shows, in total, we had 17 different on stage performers and 8 visual artists. One audience member raised the issue of gender diversity as they were disappointed that the show they attended had only one female performer that night. Yet, the week prior we had four women performers and only one man. From this we learned that it's not just important to have a diverse cast in aggregate, but to make it a priority for every show. As we recruited visual artists to create during our show, we didn't simply contact our own favorites and close friends. We leveraged our networks and used social media to spread the word that we were looking for interested artists. There was no application process or form to complete; all who wanted to participate would be considered. This exposed us to a wide variety of artists for which we had no prior knowledge and gave them a fresh challenge and space to exhibit their work. We continue to make the audio from our shows freely available online. Each show is archived on our website in perpetuity. By offering material online, we have been able to satisfy the content requests of those that were unable to attend live. Since submitting our original grant proposal, our online audience has doubled meaning the number of people accessing our shows online is more than actually attend in person.

Rakkas Minneapolis raised the profile of Turkish dance and music in the Twin Cities; audience surveys show 57% were first-time attendees to one of our events, and 57% responded their knowledge of Turkish dance and music greatly increased. 2. Dancers will travel to Minnesota for Turkish dance workshops; on a low-high scale of 1-5, 33 dancers rated all the workshops 4.83-5.0. 3. New collaborative networks have been formed. Offer a depth and variety of dance workshops. Achieved by offering 11 different dance workshops. Strength: Appealed to a broad range of dancer interests and skills. Challenge: Participants had to choose one workshop over another if they ran concurrently. Strategies: Hold fewer workshops; add more days to event to avoid scheduling overlap. Offer program for attendees to experience a range of Middle Eastern culture. Achieved via Open House and Gala Show. Open House provided a means learn about guest instructors dance styles, who inspires them, and why they dance. Gala Show showcased Turkish dance and music spanning ancient to modern times from countries that were part of the former Ottoman Empire. Strengths: Live music created a relaxed Open House setting; guest artists greeted and mingled with audience before the Open House Q and A session began; Gala Show featured a broad range of dance performances, vocals, and live musical performances. Open House Challenge: Possible audience reluctance to ask questions during Q and A. Open House Strategies: We prepared advance questions for audience to read. Gala Show Strength: Wide variety of music, dances, and costumes kept the audience engaged. Gala Show Challenge: Problems with the venue sound system. 3 hour sound check was insufficient for venue staff to get their sound equipment working properly for the musicians. The resulting monitor feedback detracted from their performance. Gala Show Strategies: A detailed report of technical issues was provided to venue manager. If we use this venue again, additional sound check time and better trained technicians will be requested to ensure proper sound system function. Strengthen participant technical and creative skills, regardless of dance experience. Achieved. Participants responded in exit surveys their technical and creative skills were greatly enhanced by the workshops. Experienced dancers were challenged by new dance styles, and newer dancers were given the tools to tailor the dance steps to their level. Challenge: Offer future workshops with instructors skilled in engaging, challenging, and inspiring all levels of dancers. Strategy: Continue to research high-caliber instructors through attending local, national, and international dance workshops. Develop collaborative partnerships. Achieved via natural collaboration that occurs when artists come together. Strength: Participants and guest artists have requested we begin to plan the next Rakkas Minneapolis. All expressed wanting to be involved each other’s future events. Challenge: Increase local Middle Eastern dance community involvement. Our event conflicted with events the local dance community participates in (Renaissance Festival, State Fair, restaurant gigs, and mandatory rehearsals). Strategies: Research event venues with more open schedules, hold event at a different time of year Community/Audience/Attendees Evaluation. Rakkas Minneapolis was the first local event to provide both Turkish and Egyptian dance workshops to the local dance community, and a positive example on creating an event welcoming for all dance styles. Participants had prior exposure to Turkish Romani dance, but few workshop opportunities to learn it. Our Romani workshops taught by Reyhan Tuzsuz sold out prior to the start of Rakkas Minneapolis, indicating an artistic need was met. Workshops taught by Serkan Tutar and Artemis Mourat also were filled, indicating another artistic need was met. Some of the participant’s comments: ""I have learned so much and have so much information to take home and digest!"" ""Warm, generous, welcoming, and well-prepared instructors and organizers - impressive! This doesn't happen here for Middle Eastern Dance!"" Audience response to the Anatolian Origins Gala Show was also positive, including this positive response from the local Turkish-American community: ""Thank you for representing our culture so well. You did an incredible job!"" We did not receive as much local Middle Eastern dancer participation as hoped. Despite notifying local dancers through social media, direct communication, and multiple local newspaper/magazine coverage, there were scheduling conflicts that could not be avoided. We will continue our outreach efforts with the local dancers to increase their participation in our Turkish dance events. Diversity: We are pleased Rakkas Minneapolis had an increase in the diversity of participants from our 2013 Romani Festival event: African-American participation increased from 2 individuals to 5; Asian-American participation increased from no individuals to 2; Egyptian-style dancer participation increased by 67%. Workshop goal of increased attendance of male dancers was not met: we had one participant in 2013 and one at Rakkas Minneapolis. To address the challenge of very few male Middle Eastern dancers in the Twin Cities our Artistic Captain, Benjamin Lamb, is exploring ways to offer Middle Eastern dance classes for men. Overall we will continue to explore ways to increase diversity from all backgrounds. Our collaboration with the local Turkish American Association has yielded very positive results, and we are developing strategies to continue working with Turkish American Association in the future. We were partially successful in meeting our accessibility goals: Early Bird and Build Your Own package pricing options were successful, and our 4 volunteer positions for the gala show were filled. We did not receive any accommodation requests from physically-challenged dancers, requests for a Sign Language Interpreter, or for Braille printing; payment plans for workshop registration and reduced fee scholarships were not utilized.

In addition, approx. 200 seniors were reached in open rehearsals/preview concerts at Friendship Village and The Colony. 93 attendees (15%+) indicated this was the FIRST time they had attended an Edina Chorale concert. The favorite aspect for audience and singers was the music selection/repertoire. Edina Chorale successfully achieved all six artistic goals. Goal 1: ‘explore love from different perspectives and across generations’ was done through music and stories from different viewpoints. Music was programmed into five segments: young love, longing/separation, marriage/weddings, forbidden love and love of mankind. Each segment featured a written story. Surveys reported the audience was ‘delighted and moved’ by the musical/story selections. Music featured classics of Gershwin and West Side Story and unexpected songs of Annie Lennox, k.d. lang and Billy Joel. Stories were by turn tender and funny achieving goal 4. Valentine's weekend provided the perfect backdrop for a special event accomplishing goal 2: ‘create a special event for everyone’. Wine, desserts and beverages were served; the traditional red/white decor created a festive, love-inspired venue. Vocalist/guest artist Prudence Johnson performed 3 solo pieces with accompanist Dan Chouinard and 3 pieces with the choir. Audience and singers alike were delighted to hear her perform; singers added Ms. Johnson provided a level of professionalism that was very helpful to observe. Surveys indicated singers felt well-prepared for a high-quality performance. A large audience, professional musicians and soloist contributed to singer’s enthusiasm/work ethic preparing for the concerts. Goals 3 and 5 were achieved by singing unexpected songs with Ms. Johnson that challenged singers and delighted the audience presenting a professional concert. Goal 6: “attract/engage a multi-generational audience with focus on seniors’ was met as nearly 50% of the attendees 65 and older. Edina Chorale focused on seniors through open rehearsals, reduced ticket pricing, music selections, location, concert time and had resounding success. One item that worked well was two open rehearsals at senior living locations; the benefit being a chance to perform music before a live audience before the concert. Residents enjoyed the music and actively engaged in the creative process of learning and following the conductor's directions. The open rehearsals served an added benefit of being a marketing tool for the chorus. Many of these residents attended and invited friends. A significant challenge was the size of the venue - the seating was tight as 5 additional tables were added each night to accommodate the extra ticket sales. A ticket limit or added concerts may allow room between tables for seniors. Theater-style seating and refreshments served at intermission may be another option. The intended communities of the audience and Edina Chorale were successfully served by 'Seasons of Love'. 84 singers and 3 staff members participated in 2016 vs. 67 singers and 3 staff in 2015. Ticket sales of about 590 compared to under 500 for the 2015 Pops Concert. 11 singers participated in their first pops concert having joined Edina Chorale in September and late-November. The focus on seniors was very successful. 47% of tickets were sold to seniors, due to reduced price ($10 vs. $20), accessible location and Saturday afternoon offering. In addition, 200 senior citizens were reached in open rehearsal/concert previews. This allowed Edina Chorale to reach many who do not have physical ability or transportation means to attend most concerts. The addition of Prudence Johnson to the program attracted some new audience members and added value for singers, but not many audience members listed Ms. Johnson as a primary reason for attending. The exploration of different perspectives on love created a new level of awareness and empathy among singers, and most likely audience members as well.

The nine choreographers will be challenged to create pieces that are site specific. They will also be challenged to work very closely with audiences and, at times, find ways to involve them. All the performers will be challenged to work in different ways, depending on the choreographer. All will be asked to participate in the development of the pieces, as well. They will be asked to dance, sing, play instruments, act, and engage with audience members. Audiences will be asked to open themselves up to a new artistic experience that asks them to travel with the performers to different locations and, as they wish, to participate at certain points. Artistic Director, Joe Chvala will take charge of evaluation, assessing process, community components, and the final product. Measures will include: Critical reviews, review of performance video, and audience response at performances and in feedback in the lobby and through e-mail and social media, Interviews with liaisons from each performance site, Interviews with participating artists throughout the project period and at the end, Box office and financial records. Chvala will invite trusted colleagues to specific rehearsals to get their feedback, as well as to performances and get their feedback. Chvala's own response during performances will provide a major indication of the work's artistic success.","Creation of a rich and unique work developed by 11 very diverse artists; Audience participation via dancing, singing, walking from place to place, taking part in some scenes, and expressing their own thoughts as part of the event; There were 18 performances reaching 1,559 people – even more than expected. Some people had to be turned away due to the capacity limits of some performance spaces Flying Foot Forum achieved its artistic goals for this grant. Retitled PASSING THROUGH PIG’S EYE, the production ran from 8/25/16 thru 9/11/16 in downtown St Paul. This exciting dance event: Showcased a series of vibrant percussive performances; Explored a wide range of percussive possibilities combining music, dance, text and visual elements; Performed at multiple sites in downtown St Paul; Expanded audiences for the Flying Foot Forum, developing new ways to engage them. 11 creative collaborators created a full evening of dance around a central theme. Audiences were treated to new experiences by traveling with the performers to different locations where they participated in a variety of ways: dancing, singing and thinking about questions posed by the performers. The production took place in various locations in St. Paul including the Hamm Building and Landmark Center – but went beyond that concept by inhabiting the whole area of downtown around Park Square Theatre, sometimes crossing paths with other productions, pedal pubs and Pokemon Go players. People stopped on the street to watch. Others asked for a flier. This excerpt encapsulates the event’s success: ""If you are a dance aficionado, the variety of this sampler platter will tickle your aesthetic taste buds. But ‘Passing Through Pig’s Eye' might be the ideal introduction for those who don’t consider themselves 'dance people.' It’s engaging and accessible; rangy in style and mood; energetic, educational and a whole lot of fun."" Dominic Papatola, Pioneer Press. Strengths/Challenges of Artistic Process: Working with 11 separate creators and collaborators was exciting and stretched everyone in new ways. Dancers who rarely speak or sing had to deliver lines, and led “tour groups” of audience members. Musicians played, but were also asked to sing and dance. Everyone used multiple skills, and in some cases developed skills they didn’t know they had! The creative and rehearsal process was also complex. While project lead, Joe Chvala, fully briefed each collaborator on the concept, everyone worked independently. When the completed pieces were reviewed, determining how they would fit together was tricky. Some dances were longer than others. Some evolved and didn’t easily fit the original concept. Accessibility, potential weather issues and how to safely move the audience thru the city also posed challenges. Developing the final program was like working on a moving, 3- dimensional puzzle. Regardless, it’s clear that these challenges also enriched the work, making it more unique than it might have been otherwise. What Might Be Done Differently “Next Time”: In the future, Chvala would likely become more involved in the creative process of each of the pieces so that they could thread together more easily. Or, each choreographer might be given carte blanche for a more traditional repertory concert where a piece lives on its own without having to fit the context of an entire evening. PASSING THROUGH PIG’S EYE was very successful at reaching its intended community. 16 artists were involved as collaborators and performers onstage, and another seven scenic and technical artists were involved in creating the aesthetics of the work. From an audience perspective, attendance exceeded our expectations. There were two “tracks” for the show (each named after a fabled gangster in St Paul’s history), enabling participants to experience very different versions of the production. Some patrons opted to return for a second night to experience the performances in the “other” track. The attendees were, perhaps, a bit more diverse that expected and younger that the typical dance and theatre-going audiences (many were in their 20s and 30s). There were also a large number of people who had never seen the Flying Foot Forum perform. This may have been the result of the excellent press received for the show. There were four exceptional reviews, as well as a preview cover story in the entertainment section of the Pioneer Press. Attendance was also enhanced because Park Square Theatre assisted with marketing and provided access to their extensive audience database. The program was well-designed to provide accessibility to everyone who wished to participate. All the buildings and the streets involved in the traveling portion of the performances were wheelchair accessible. Performers were assigned to direct people who might need them to elevators, and assisted people in getting from one place to the next. There were also seating areas designated in each location for patrons who used wheelchairs. One patron in wheelchair was a 101 year-old woman who had been a docent at the Landmark Center when she was younger. When asked if we got all the history right, she responded with a definitive “yes!” Chairs were provided in all locations for people who needed to sit. While there was a significant amount of time traveling from one venue to the next, rest stops were built-in to make sure that the walking was never unpleasant for each track of people made up of different ages and physical ability. Finally, two ASL interpreters were hired for the signed performances because there were two tracks in the show. There was (at least) one interpreter in each location at all times.",,73800,"Other, local or private",83800,,"Timothy Fuller, Joan Loshek, Joe Chvala",0.00,"Flying Foot Forum","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for Dancing Through the Streets, a joyous community event for young and old alike that takes audiences through downtown St Paul on a journey filled with percussive dance, drumming, and music.

To gauge our Guthrie audience's investment in the piece, we will provide audience surveys to review their connection with the characters and to monitor the number of supplementary play guides distributed to measure their interest in the story and the original source materials. To collect our evaluation criteria, we will hold numerous post-play discussions and distribute surveys for both our students and our Guthrie audiences. We will count the number of students, new audience members, and in particular any students who continue to stay engaged with the production after it transfers to the Guthrie.","Many of our small theater peers have performed at the Guthrie Theater and ultimately have been unsatisfied with the artistic product of their work, because they felt inclined to overproduce their material so it ""rose to Guthrie standards."" Four Humors’ biggest takeaway was collaboratively create a piece, retain its artistic identity, and not to feel pressured to match the aesthetics of our venue. Four Humors had three artistic goals for this production of The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha: to create an adaptation of this renowned piece of literature in an honest way that highlights its positive outlook and unique style of humor, which piques audience interest in revisiting the original text; to increase the participating students’ sense of empathy towards people that they may write off as “crazy” or different through a close analysis of the text and creation of a physical character for the stage; and to create a show that demonstrates that small theater does not mean amateur, it means small budget. Artistic Director Jason Ballweber believes that the company created an adaptation that was true and honest to the source material. Numerous audience members and survey respondents also commented both on the faithfulness of the production to the source material and about wanting revisit and more closely explore the novel. By the end of the student workshops the students had a much easier time understanding Don Quixote’s world. Also, all participants had the opportunity to perform and by playing the character Don Quixote, he became less of a feeble-minded fool and more of a misguided dreamer. The workshops with the students was the biggest success of this project. Because of the additional workshops the company had additional time to work with the material, which helped the piece tremendously. Four Humors’ biggest strength is the relationship to the performers. By letting all the actors collaborate in the creation of the piece, a more fully realized story is ultimately told through many voices. Finally, the audiences at the Guthrie were wowed by the creative presentation. Through the work with video projection, Four Humors was able to show an audience modern theater techniques, while staying true to actor-driven theater through the use of imaginative puppeteering. The one drawback was the limited amount of time to rehearse with the technology in the performance space. Similar to our artistic success, Four Humors met its audience goals with this production of The Ingenious Gentleman Don Quixote of La Mancha. By offering two student workshops with the University of Minnesota and Augsburg College, the company was able to work with and perform for an engaged student community. Based off audience surveys, 15% of our audience was under the age 24. Those figures do not include a special student matinee that was performed at the Guthrie’s Dowling Studio, the first student matinee that has been performed by a guest company in the Dowling Studio at the Guthrie Theater. Four Humors was also able to engage with our audiences through 3 post-play discussions were held for the audiences, 2 for the general public and one specifically for the student matinee. We also employed our board members to greet and welcome guests in the lobby before and after every performance. In addition to strong student participation, Four Humors was also able to perform for a completely new audience. According to audience surveys, over 70% of our audiences had not seen a Four Humors performance before.

Moving to Minneapolis to expand our audience, and reaching out to new audiences in new place in Minneapolis and increase the reach of our productions. Also, discovering a great of artists who are passionate about Hope Theater Company. Recent Experiences"" represents the second project of our company, Hope Theater Company. Producing ""Recent Experiences"" was a pivotal second step toward achieving our goals, second and foremost of which is achieving closeness with our community, and opening the lines of communication and discussion with our new audience. Some Outcomes: The story was lovely story from Canadian Play writer Nadia Ross and Jacob Wren. They are well known writers in Canada. Story was about an African American man in 1900 that he was fell in love with White lady. They get together without going to church and without telling to anybody that they married. We are following this story from 1900 to 2007, and listening to four generations stories. We were lucky because our audiences were positively impacted, and enjoyed the show almost unanimously. Our artistic process began in February 21, 2016. After securing our venue, Phoenix Theater, Which is located in Minneapolis, we started our rehearsal. During first part of rehearsal time we have met many actors and artists who love to be part of this project. Finally, we have found our all 6 actors. The Rehearsal process included extensive research with the actors on the setting, story, and characters in the script for two and half months. ""Recent Experiences"" garnered amazing results as the debut production for Hope Theater Company. In addition to production a socially and politically relevant piece which was well-received by its audience, we were successful in the following goals: A. Introducing our second production and Hope Theater Company to the Twin Cities. B. Hosting a successful fundraiser, where we raised funds for our project and more than that, made more new and valuable friends within our new community. C. Discovering a great of artists who are passionate about Hope Theater Company and its goals, and who we hope to collaborate with in the future. (We have two new members in our company now which we are so excited about them.) D. Reaching out to new audiences in new place in Minneapolis and increase the reach of our productions. E. Obtaining the attention of local media, by garnering some reviews, a write-up in the Minnesota playlist, MNartist website, and an interview piece with Persian media, all of which can be found below. F. Engaging in meaningful conversations with our audience. We facilitated multiple post-show discussions, where we received feedback from our audience, answered their questions, and engaged in extremely meaningful conversation between the company and the audience. G. We had two weeks venue and 10 shows in Phoenix Theater, and during this time, we found almost two hundred eighty audiences. Also more than 15 artists came and see our play. I. We had one night ASL for our play and we had some people at that night who need ASL and it was great to have ASL signer for them. We believe we are off to a great second step on our way to building a secure and exciting future for our company. We started with: Amy Danielson, our communications director, introduce Second project of Hope Theater Company and promoted ""Recent experiences"" on social media, Minnesota Playlist, the MNDaily, City Page and MNartist. She also helped us develop and improving our website and our page in Face Book too. It was instrumental in promoting ""Recent Experiences"" in the community at-large. One of wonderful point for us was working with Rich Ryan local photographer. I invited him to join with us and collaborated with me during the project and results were amazing photos which we published in our website and our Facebook page. After these amazing jobs, we have gotten verity of people who involved in our project and our venue. We believe that moving to Minneapolis help us to find more new generation audience and also we have gotten more people who were interested about Hope Theater Company's goals and plan for future. In fact, after this project; two of our actors, Kimberly Willow, and Philip Matthews were excited to involve to Hope Theater Company, and they are part of our company now. In addition, we were lucky to have some students from University of Minnesota who came to see our play and it was first time for us to attract new generation. We hope that if we will continue our productions, we are going to be more popular in twin Cities and we can involve more and more audience with different culture and ages.

One of the questions asked was what did you like about IndiaFest and the top answer was Learning about Indian Culture (72%) followed by Dancing and Food, Location and people. Yes! The artistic goals were achieved with this program. We had Ashwani from Ragamala trained with renowned teacher Alarmel Valli in India in the style of Bharatanatyam, south India’s classical dance present at IndiaFest 2017. Ananya dance presented a special piece on social justice created and dedicated to Indiafest--it was commissioned by and created for and premiered at India Fest. Katha dance presented Rubaiyat on Indiafest state which was again very well received. We also had Pangea create a special play for youth leadership where 17 teens perform. Since we had diversity in performance we had a very good turnout and that worked very well. The main challenge this year was the rain during the daytime which made it difficult to setup.

We are still exploring that option. Yes! We were able to reach out to the intended community. We had over 10,000 attend the festival and our target was local Minnesotans and due to our publicity using social media as well as local news outlets we were able to serve a diverse community.

An event like this brings the entire local jazz scene together, exposes audiences to new groups and music, and serves to demonstrate the strength and diversity of our jazz community. Our fifth season of Jazz at Studio Z was again a success, especially with regards to our artistic goals. The space we've created for artists allows them to fulfill their artistic vision without any hindrance, one of the few venues in the Twin Cities that this is possible, and to do so in an intimate listening room format. We once again had new groups make their debut and had more established artists premiere new music. The level of consistent quality expected and delivered at Jazz at Studio Z is perhaps the best in the Twin Cities. We feel that the project served its intended community/audience well again this season. We had over 40 performers participate throughout the season, and nearly 400 audience members. The diversity in age, gender, and ethnicity of both our performers and our audiences was substantial. The effort to involve more female performers in jazz is ongoing due in part to the smaller percentage of players, but we are always trying to improve on that, and featured two female led groups this season.

The addition of an executive director to our small staff will significantly expand our reach and our sources of support. Musical artistic goals were met, and audience response was very positive and enthusiastic at all three concerts. Ticket sales exceeded projections by about 20%, and we achieved a slight increase in 25-50 year-old demographic. We hope to continue that trend through increased use of social media and marketing. This year our venues include Ordway Music Theater, and we hope a downtown St Paul venue will significantly expand awareness of JazzMN Orchestra with a larger and broader audience. Most importantly, JazzMN has hired a new executive director, Steve Heckler, the founding director in 1999 of the Twin Cities Jazz Festival which this year attracted upwards of 80,000 jazz music fans to 28 different St Paul venues. As one of the Upper Midwest's premiere jazz impresarios and with extensive experience in the area of Development/Fund Raising and Sponsor Cultivation, Heckler will provide a boost to all of JazzMN's hopes for broadening its base of attendees and its bases of support. JazzMN has a very loyal following which skews toward an older demographic with a generational fondness for Big Band jazz. This is manifested in robust sales of season tickets and familiar faces at concerts.

Present local and national talent who will represent and reflect the diversity of Jewish culture: Yes! We featured top-notch national and international talent, as well as some local comedians as well! Ensure there is something for everyone – all ages, Jewish and non-Jewish, GLBT, etc.: Most ticketed events were for adults 18+, but two were appropriate for teens. One event was geared towards the GLBT community, and we offered one workshop for children. Provide learning opportunities in addition to entertainment experiences: There were two workshops (Improv Comedy and Laughter Yoga), as well as Q and A opportunities with some of the artists following their events.

We did not surpass last year's attendance however. The 2016 Twin Cities Jewish Humor Festivals reached its intended community through rigorous outreach efforts and engaging community partnerships. As with previous Jewish Humor Festivals, we found that this year's audience was widely diverse. Lesbian comedian Jen Kober attracted a sold-out LGBTQ audience - most of whom were not Jewish. Opening night Mark Matsuof and closing night Rabbi Sim Glaser also nearly sold out.

Audience surveys also showed that at least 10% of respondents are under 40 years of age, and at least 30% are attending a Jewish Book Series event for the first time. We will design a program booklet survey asking audience members to volunteer demographic data (age, race, gender, income, connection to the Jewish community, etc.) and how they heard about the event. The survey will also specifically ask participants whether the event increased their awareness of Jewish identity or culture, and if so, in what way.","Over 50 people attended at least one event throughout this author series that had never previously participated in a Jewish arts program. Approximately 30% of attendees chose to purchase the author’s book after hearing them speak, indicating a desire to delve deeper into literature. Our proposal consisted of four artistic goals. We believe that all of these goals were met during the course of our project. Our first goal, to celebrate and explore Jewish identity and culture and highlight the rich diversity of the Jewish experience through a variety of engaging and unique narrative voices, was met by the wide range of topics discussed by our featured authors, as well as their unique backgrounds. Topics ranged from interfaith friendships and marriages to stay-at-home fathers, and from tensions between Israelis and Palestinians to rock n roll. The range of topics throughout the series also helped us to meet another goal, to attract and engage a broad audience by presenting notable artists likely to have wide recognition and appeal. Several audience members attended two, or even all three events, but many simply attended the singular event that they connected most deeply with on an individual basis. Although attendance numbers were not as high as we had hoped overall, we did succeed in attracting audience members from many walks of life. As books struggle to stay relevant in our ever more technology-driven world, we hoped to honor and celebrate literature and the written word through these events. We believe this goal was accomplished first by simply inviting these authors to come and speak to our community, and to share their stories and their art form with us. We also accomplished this by making copies of each author’s book available for sale at their event. Some audience members attended having already read the book, but many came simply because they were interested in the topic. After hearing from these authors, many in the latter group were excited to continue exploring the topic at hand by reading the author’s book. Our final goal, to build community and strengthen individual growth by stimulating dialogue and discussion was met through rich, engaging conversation between audience and authors. We successfully reached members of all three different audiences that we set out to target, including people who are already strongly identified with and active in the local Jewish community, people who have a connection to the local Jewish community but are not actively involved, and people who may have an interest in Jewish arts and culture or overlapping areas of interest. Each of the three events had audience members from each of these three categories, although interestingly, and somewhat unintentionally, each event seemed to attract more from a different category. Our first event, with author/journalist and illustrator Christopher Noxon, who addressed issues of interfaith marriage and stay-at-home fathers, attracted primarily members of our first targeted audience, those that already have strong ties to the local Jewish community. Those that have a more indirect connection to the local Jewish community, such as secular or unaffiliated Jews and non-Jewish friends and family members, were the primary audience for our second event with author and journalist Anthony David, who addressed tensions between Israelis and Palestinians through the story of a surprising friendship between two powerful women on each side of the conflict. Our third event, featuring musician Steve Katz, welcomed a large number of non-Jews with an overlapping interest in Katz’s music. By hosting all of our events in our own auditorium, we ensured a space that was open and accessible to all, with step-free entrances and wheelchair access.

Surveyed patrons aged 18-49 made up 26% of ""Bad Jews"" attendees, up from 6% for our previous production. A valuable connection was made with participating community partner Beth Jacob Congregation, which brought in 15 of 47 young patrons who attended the 20s and 30s Night. Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company produced a top quality regional premiere of ""Bad Jews"" at the Highland Park Community Center, Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s theater home. It ran for 15 performances, April 30 to May 22. There were 906 attendees. The production received 6 reviews noting its artistic achievement as a “sharp comedy” (Star Tribune) that was “compelling, hilarious, well-acted” (Cherry and Spoon) with “masterful direction” (MN Playlist). We received over 15 unsolicited messages through email and social media from impacted audience members who identified with the emotional performances. Michael S. emailed us to say “There were audible sobs from the audience before applause at the final curtain, a fine example of why I love the theatre.” The project successfully fostered thought about personal identity in our diverse and assimilated society. The blog TC Jewfolk praised the production for posing “deeply personal questions about identity and legacy” and providing “opportunity for community discussion.” Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s Outreach and Engagement committee designed three Doorways programs to facilitate conversation around Bad Jews: a continuing legal education seminar that weaved perspectives on inheritance from secular law, Jewish law and familial obligation; a storytelling event at Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s space that allowed patrons to share their own family drama; and a 20s and 30s Night which offered patrons 20-39 discounted tickets ($15) and entry to a private event with the Bad Jews cast at the Highland Grill restaurant. These Doorways programs were attended by over 100 patrons: 52 at the continuing legal education seminar, 47 at the 20s and 30s Night event and 14 at the storytelling event. Patrons aged 18-49 made up 26% of Bad Jews attendees, compared to 6% for our previous production (""The Tale of the Allergist’s Wife""), proving success in engaging our target audience. Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company made effective use of social media to reach our target audience. During our Facebook campaign (March 13-May 28), our page averaged 322 unique users/day with users ages 25-34 making up 30-40% of those reached/week. Through incentive-led marketing, we held ticket and gift card giveaways, and discounted student group tickets ($14) and student rush tickets ($12). We offered comp tickets to reviewers from culture sites (American Jewish World, TC Jewfolk, Not So Kosher podcast) and theater blogs (Cherry and Spoon, MN TheaterLove, MN Playlist, Talkin’ Broadway) to increase visibility to younger audiences who read and share information online. Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company created a one-to-one communications plan to offer group sale packages and engagement opportunities. We contacted university-level students and community organizations. We faced some challenges with universities whose semesters were ending and groups whose own programming prevented participation. Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s most significant partnership was with Beth Jacob, who co-promoted 20s and 30s Night. 15 of the 47 attendees at Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s 20s and 30s Night came through Beth Jacob’s efforts. As a cultural learning experience on identity, assimilation and community, ""Bad Jews"" brought together a diverse audience. Through our survey at time of their ticket purchase, our audience self-identified religious and cultural backgrounds. 64% self-identified as Jewish, higher than our average. Other audience members described themselves as Atheist, Agnostic, Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Episcopalian, Muslim, Lutheran, Messianic, Presbyterian, Protestant, and Unitarian. While Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company always produces stories based in Jewish content, the questions ""Bad Jews"" posed around how to “correctly” perform Jewish identity may have attracted a larger percentage of audience members who are Jewish. This project was promoted for teens and up, and successfully drew patrons aged 18-49 (26%), 50-64 (31%) and 65+ (42%). Nine artists and staff involved with the show were in our target age range of 18-49, four of whom were new to the theater. The Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company’s Outreach and Engagement committee brought together a diverse group of staff, artists and board members to plan our three Doorways programs. The programs explored the themes of the play and impacted over 100 participants, including artists, cultural leaders and community organization leaders. Our performance space was advertised in all materials as fully accessible. 15 patrons requested access seats including wheelchair seating and seats without impediment of stairs. Minnesota Jewish Theatre Company also designated one performance for audio description. In addition to our range of ticket pricing ($32-12) and group discounts, patrons 20-39 were eligible to receive discount tickets ($15) to attend on a designated 20s and 30s Night performance.

Audience surveys indicated that 70% of respondents would like to see the site host additional music festivals, concerts and cultural/community events. The Midtown Global Music Festival took place on Saturday, July 9th from 10:30 AM until 8:30 PM. We did achieve our artistic goals. The event indeed attracted a diverse audience. ETHNICITY: 54%-White,-19% African American-7% Latino-6%, East African-5% Mixed-4% Asian-4%, Other-4%. AGE: 0/18-6%, 18/30-27%, 31/45-20%, 45/60-27%, 60+-18%. RESIDENCE: Neighborhood-20%, Minneapolis-38%, Minneapolis Suburb-21%, St Paul-9%, St Paul Suburb-7%, Outlying/out state-5%. Performance artists represented a wide array of cultural stylings including dance, (Native American, Middle Eastern, Bollywood, salsa, belly, stepping, Somali), music (jazz, salsa, reggae, folk, Swedish, Ecuadorian) and display/culinary-Midtown Global Music Festival tenants and day table renters. We believe Midtown Global Music Festival 2016 was again another successful demonstration to the power of arts-based community development. There is something special going on, especially considering the events that had taken place the week prior to the event, to see people from all walks of life take part in a group salsa dance lesson or jiving to a top notch reggae band. What worked? The lineup! Our group received numerous comments on the quality of the performances. Particular thanks go to headliner The Wibesman, Q-band, J. Most's Command Steppers and Kalpulli Ketzalcoatlicue, all of whom put on spirited performances. What didn't work? To be honest and compared to last year's event (the site had no power until 3 PM), Midtown Global Music Festival 2016 went off without a hitch. The weather couldn't have been better--82%, sunny with a pleasant breeze. Strengths/Challenges-Again, the lineup was a strength. Instead of a second stage, we rented a quality dance floor...a suggestion from last year brought up to us by our dance artists. Our stage and sound vendors were again wonderful, professional and of quality. Do differently-Perhaps add another global artist in place of an US-based style, a minor consideration. Reach community-Yes and no. Yes, we did attract a diverse audience and our participants represented a wide array of art forms. However, we fell short (first time in six years) in meeting our attendance objectives. Actual vs. grant app forecast: Adult attendees: 6,500/8,500 (-31%), youth attendees: 800/1,000 (-25%), total: 7,300 (actual)/9,500 (forecasted). These outcomes were somewhat of a shock to us, primarily because the event attracted significantly more earned media than our prior five ('16: $73.8K, '11-'15 average: $28K, +163%). In addition, it was to be the highlight of the Midtown Global Market's 10th Anniversary. Our conclusion/theory: The racial unrest fueled in part by the Philando Castile shooting motivated most regional residents to stay near their homes. Adding fuel to this sentiment was the fact that social media channels were active in regards to potentially troublesome events that may take place. Supporting our theory were the number of discussions on race relations that took place during the event. For many, a colorful and festive celebration was not in alignment with the vibe being experienced by most in the 7-County Metro. Though a dip in the road, Midtown Global Music Festival attendance is still trending upward in the long run vs. its initial three years and relatively close to 2014's mark. Another bright spot...door counts indicated nearly 3,000 people attended the event after 4:30 PM. Adult artists benefiting: 100/75 (+33%) Of note: 10 children under the age of 18 also performed with their respective dance troupes. Diversity. As mentioned in the prior section, we do believe we reached a very diverse audience in terms of age, ethnicity and where people live. In terms of doing something differently, it would be worthwhile to encourage our performing artists to regularly post on their websites and social media they'll be performing at our event. Many did; however, there is room to improve. Accessibility: Midtown Global Music Festival planning meetings are open to anyone wishing to contribute. Cultural Program Manager Becky George is a member of numerous neighborhood boards and outreach programs and encourages her contacts to assist our efforts. Her networking efforts begin in early April. The Midtown Global Music Festival is 100% ADA compliant. We had a handicap accessible lavatory near the outside music grounds. We placed more pop-up tents near the stage area for shade.

We worked with local community members to cull stories and present stories on stage. The actors came from our communities and many acted for the first time in their own stories. The audiences were representative of our communities and we had heartfelt conversations with them. It was an amazing experience artistically for all involved. We were so happy with the outcome. What didn't work: There was not a lot that didn't work, actually. I guess the only feedback would be that everyone wanted more in every way. More time to explore together, more performances, more connections and community. The experience was fantastic. I don't know that I would do much different if had the opportunity to do it again - maybe run the plays for two weekends and hire a stage manager. The only difference in the expected community and the actual community was the participation of Somali Americans as audience members. We did not predict so many Somalis would come to our show and participate in our audience. That was a great surprise. Also the Lebanese community, who almost never shows up for arts events came out in full force.

Enthusiasm for these concerts will be measured by full-to-capacity audiences for each concert at Nicollet Island and excited applause for each selection. We evaluate the outcomes of our concert events by counting our audiences, collecting participant surveys from senior group leaders, observing and noting audience response to the music and hospitality at our concert events, and talking to our patrons and volunteers for feedback. The greatest indicator that our outcomes meet and exceed our expectations is the clamor for reservations in January, and the rush of seniors who wait outside the venue an hour and a half before the concert hoping to get seats close to the orchestra.","About 2,250 people attended 5 concerts: 500 each x 4 at Nicollet Island; and 250 at Elliot Park. 45 musicians, 1 conductor and two guest artists performed. Audience members enjoyed these performances, judging from enthusiastic applause and survey comments: “The whole thing is wonderful! Great setting, wonderful music, excellent volunteers and the seniors love having the treats.” – Group Leader. The artistic goal of this project, “to provide artistically excellent, live orchestra performances, created especially for audiences that usually do not have access to such performances,” was achieved. Concerts were highly successful, drawing large crowds of people (averaging 500 at Nicollet Island) who provided excellent feedback for evaluation. Artistic quality was high for the orchestra, guest artists were excellent and personable with the audience, and repertoire was an obvious hit with seniors. They especially enjoyed Gershwin’s “American in Paris,” along with the patriotic tunes in the MPO’s Fourth of July celebration. The Minneapolis Pops Orchestra collaborated with internationally renowned Celtic string duo Alasdair Fraser and Natalie Haas in a performance at Nicollet Island. Soloists performed an array of Scottish and Celtic music with great artistry. Several new arrangements for orchestral accompaniment with the duo were premiered as well. The artistic process is challenging every year for several reasons: (1) Only one rehearsal for each concert; (2) performances in different venues than rehearsals; (3) outdoor venues with wind, sun, high or low temperatures, etc. Musicians and administrators have learned to adjust to all these factors, and in fact enjoy the challenge. Unfortunately, lack of funding forced the cancellation of the St Paul performance. Originally scheduled for Cerenity/Humboldt, we had changed the location to Como Park Pavilion in order to increase general audience, draw more seniors from St Paul, and provide a more convenient venue for St Paul patrons who already attended Nicollet Island concerts. This was the only change to “Free Concerts for Seniors.” The community served was exactly as listed in the proposal: “low-income senior citizens, many living with disabilities.” Senior activity centers and day care facilities serving low-income seniors were invited to the four Nicollet Island concerts, which were at seating capacity for all four performances. Seniors from the Elliot Park neighborhood and Augustana Residence (across the street) attended that performance. Attendance at Elliot Park was higher than usual because of the lovely weather the day of the performance. “We love everything about coming . . . the comfortable space, fantastic refreshments, generous donors; but most of all hearing the Minneapolis Pops Orchestra’s splendid performance! Oh my, what a treat. This is only one of many years of attending this July series at Nicollet Island. We (my senior citizens and I) attend 3 or 4 concerts every summer. Thank you SO VERY much! It enriches our lives in immeasurable ways!” – Senior group leader. The diversity of this senior community was just as proposed. The audience at Nicollet Island exhibits a wide range of mobility and disability. Invitations are issued to senior facilities throughout the Twin Cities, many working with Volunteers of America. We cannot control for racial or ethnic diversity; seniors who choose to attend these concerts are primarily white, although every year we see a gradual increase in racial diversity at Nicollet Island. Based on the list of facilities invited and comments received from group leaders, we believe that many attendees are low-income and could not afford concert tickets at more traditional venues. The audience at Elliot Park is extremely diverse, with many attendees of color, neighborhood residents of all ages, and seniors who listen from their windows or the verandah at the Augustana Residence. Since the targeted audience is low-income seniors with disabilities, every effort is made to provide access. All venues are ADA accessible, and seating areas have wide aisles for mobility aids. Concerts are free, transportation is provided for those who need it, and seniors are assisted from vans or buses to their seats. Large-print programs and appropriate amplification systems are used, and access to the cultural medium is provided through the Music Director’s informal comments during the performance. “Loved the show! Music, venue, and treats were great. So accommodating for our group. Wheel chair and walker friendly. One of our group’s members was the owner of the Dick Kast Orchestra and had tears in his eyes he was so happy!

As one of our hosts put it ""So friendly and accepting :)"" The 2016 Driveway Tour had many artistic goals. Most important of these was providing a valuable and enriching experience for communities by working with local partners to host an inclusive event around a professionally produced puppetry performance. To achieve this goal, we cast three teams of puppeteers, each cast performing one of the three puppet shows. The Driveway Tour Performed 106 times this summer in the Twin Cities Metro area and even traveling as far out as Red Wing. Our community partners included both experienced and first time hosts. Feedback from hosts was conducted via an online survey was very positive. Specific quotes include ""It was the highlight of the summer"" and ""There was a grandmother who laughed so hard and loud during the entire performance, she really got a lot more than she was expecting."" This summer we reached a total of 6923 audience members with at 106 Driveway Tour performances. We unfortunately did not reach our audience goal (10,000), we did perform slightly more than our goal for number of performances (105). Part of our lower attendance was a larger number of show cancellations than in previous years. These were due to a number of reasons, but primarily because of weather or other unforeseen events. In the future we will try to work with hosts to have additional contingency plans available so that the show can go on. This summer also included a large number of first time hosts, who often have a hard time attracting audiences in their first year, when there is not an established tradition. We will also continue our efforts to help our hosts spread the word and publicize their events. Another goal of the program is to create a professional quality performance while training and developing the skills of young artists. We originally estimated that we would train between 3-6 performers this summer, and we exceeded this goal and trained 5 new performers and further developed the skills of 3 returning puppeteers. These returning performers took on the additional leadership role of being a show manager, handling the day to day logistics and host relationships at performances. We received the feedback about our performer teams ""Everyone was really impressed with the professionalism as well as how engaging it was for children and adults!"" As in previous years the Driveway Tour succeeded in its goal of reaching audience members brought together through the efforts of our community partners and hosts in local performance locations i.e. backyards, schools, libraries, etc. In 2016 we reached audiences that were approximately 21% people of color. This percentage is very similar to that of previous years. This year also featured the show The Adventures of Juan Bobo, which is performed half in Spanish and half in English. This show is often requested to visit communities with a large Spanish speaking population, while still being accessible to families who speak any language. Some feedback we received about Juan Bobo included, ""We loved the bilingual aspect of our performance."" and ""It's great because it gets the kids outside and involved in the story, and we loved having Juan Bobo in our largely Hispanic neighborhood."" Also this summer we saw a change in our host composition as we had a much larger percentage of first-time hosts apply and bring shows to their neighborhoods. This is very exciting and will hopefully indicate a new generation of hosts starting a tradition in their communities as is common among our more established hosts. As some new hosts stated ""Great opportunity to meet our neighbors, as we were new to the neighborhood."" and ""This performance was part of our first potluck event ever."" One exciting aspect of this summer was our Ice Cream Social. Each summer Open Eye hosts a community Ice Cream Social at our physical location at 24th and Portland in South Minneapolis to engage with our own neighborhood. This event features free ice cream and games as well as performances of all three Driveway Tour Shows. This year we had attendance numbers, upwards of 400 people in our small theatre. Additionally we were very successful in bringing in people from our diverse neighborhood, with about 50% of the attendees being people of color. We will continue our efforts and outreach to hosts who identify as people of color and hopefully continue to increase opportunities for new and diverse communities to engage with our work.",,37500,"Other, local or private",47500,,"Robert Van Nelson, Charles Vanek, Larry Lamb, Jean Abbot, Kathy Gaskins, Susan Haas, Craig Harris, Keith Lester, Candace Miller Lopez, Michelle Pett, Ryan Setterholm, Michael Sommers, Amy Warner",0.00,"Open Eye Figure Theatre","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to present the 14th annual Driveway Tour, offering family-friendly puppet theater to more than 100 communities in the Twin Cities area during summer 2016.

","Seventy-two percent of respondents enjoyed the show to the extent that they would be likely to recommend the show to friends or colleagues. 80% of key collaborating artists said felt comfortable in making decisions and taking risks regarding their artistic piece. The project team decided their evaluation objectives were to demonstrate the impact of the Palabras Project in: 1. Building a diverse audience, 2. Determining how audience members identify with the performance, and 3. giving artists a respectful and safe place to take risks. Four evaluation questions guided the project. Below is a brief overview of the responses to both interviews of artists and surveys sent out to audience members. 1) Is the Palabras Project successfully building a more diverse audience? a. Yes. Comparison data from other performances and cities indicate that the Palabras project had a relatively more diverse audience relative to the Minnesota general population and theatre projects in other states. Because this was the first showing, the data should help serve as a baseline for future performances. 2) How are audience members identifying with the stories told by the palabras project? a. Strongly identify. The data supports that a significant number of audience members strongly identified with the Palabras Project stories. Seventy-two percent of respondents would be likely to recommend the show and one-third left comments indicating that they felt the show was unique, creative, powerful, and an innovative approach to Lorca’s Blood Wedding. 3) How are the artists involved experiencing the Palabras Project? Are they feeling like it’s a respectful and safe place to take risks? a. Artists felt respected. Almost every artist explicitly indicated that they felt comfortable making decisions and taking risks. Several indicated that in a future performance, additional preparation time and direction on how pieces would be woven together would be helpful. 4) How are community partners experiencing sharing the Palabras Project with their communities. a. The community partner felt that their community was very engaged in the show, though sometimes confused as to where to go next. We experienced a great challenge/opportunity with the huge collaboration across 5 artistic disciplines (Flamenco, Mask, Shadow puppetry, Installation art and indigenous flute, and hip hop). Different art forms require vastly different timelines/modes of creation. We learned a lot about how critical it is to build a common vocabulary in order to facilitate cross-disciplinary conversation. If/when we repeat a project of this scope, we will utilize new language to get all collaborators on the same page, and implement more regular check-in moments to ensure we continue to be on the same page. We identify our intended community as: artists, community partners (such as CLUES and Neighborhood House), and audience members. We anticipated that at least half of audience-members would come from communities of color, particularly from St Paul’s Latino communities. We expected a portion of our audiences to be representative of the Twin Cities’ average theater-going community, which is primarily upper middle class Caucasian women older than 55. Collaborating artists and actors were to be primarily of-color, with focus on providing opportunities to Latinos. We are proud of the artistic impact of our project. All in all, we employed 42 artists, most of whom had never set foot in Park Square previously, 33 of whom were of color. Four of our five primary artists were all Latino/Hispanic/Chicano identifying, and the fifth was Spanish. According to our demographic survey, sixty-nine percent of respondents identified as Caucasian, seventeen percent considered themselves Hispanic or Latino, and three percent identified themselves as Asian. Ten percent of responses fit their own category including identifications such as Italian, Eastern European, and Arab. However, we only received a 21% response rate to our survey, and we believe that we reached more audience members of color than the survey indicates. The data appears to support that the Palabras Project successfully built a diverse audience considering the general population demographics and comparison examples. While the percentage of attendees for the Palabras Project who identify as white, not Hispanic (69%) is larger than the percentage of individuals who live in Minneapolis or St Paul and identify as white, not Hispanic (60%), the gap in who attends a performance is lower than in other performances and cities. While only one community partner was available for a post-show interview, the feedback can be used as a starting point. The community partner was interviewed about their experience with the project. Key Takeaways: 1) The community partner invited mothers from her preschool group and a senior’s program. 2) Because going to a production at night was a challenge, we provided a bus to transport people to the show. This was incredibly helpful for the partner’s community. 3) From the partner’s perspective, the community felt very engaged by the show. According to the partner, community members were excited and felt that the music and the art was great. That said, there was some confusion and potentially a little too much walking for the seniors that attended. Attendees got lost throughout the project and did not fully understand that they had to continue moving. Although we had wheelchairs available, and designated seating for the mobile performance, there were still audience members who were confused, or didn't feel the experience was physically accessible. We will address this challenge in our next production through more careful communication with audience members.",,43000,"Other, local or private ",53000,,"Richard Cook, C Michael-Jon Pease, Richard Aguilar, Alberto Justiniano, Scott Mateo, Marcela Lorca, Shari Aronson, Chris Griffith",0.00,"Other Tiger Productions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support ",,"Funding for the Palabras Project, a conceptual production of Lorca’s Blood Wedding featuring local Latino poets, musicians, dancers, and hip hop artists.

Our project highlights the rich diversity of our Pan Asian Arts components that have artfully blended into a rich tapestry of cultural and artistic delight. We used the performing arts as 1) a creative platform to promote collaboration among different ethnic groups within the Asian American/Pacific Islander community; and 2) presented the highest quality of Pan Asian arts. In addition, we have created forums that transcend social and cultural barriers by encouraging collaboration among disparate groups. Event: Pan Asian Arts Festival. Date: May 14, 2016, from 11-8pm. Location: Mall of America. Overview: The festival is to foster collaboration among Asian American and Pacific Islanders performing arts/cultural groups and expose more cultural and arts activities during May Pan Asian Heritage Month with Pan Asian arts/cultural demonstrations free of charge, to support the communities with better access to diverse Pan Asian Arts/Customs and Cultures. While promoting a sense of unity, this festival had celebrated the rich cultural diversity within the vibrant local Asian American/Pacific Islander community with the Public. At the event, 56 enthusiastic group demonstrated various Asian performances including Cambodian, Indian, Chinese, Hmong, Japanese hip-hop, Korean hip-hop, Thai and African American rap singers at the Rotunda in Mall of America. There were 12 different booths to explore what is available in the Asian community. Over 2,000 people gathered to catch a glimpse of the collections of performances as well as enjoyed the different arts and crafts, carnival games, and educational enrichment from the community. Activities included origami crane making, henna tattoo, Asian games, and other related Asian activities that the attendees enjoyed very much. Over 150 attendees commented that the event was amazing and the various cultural performances were spectacular. Attendees get to engage in the cultural exchange and try on Asian costumes as well as write in Chinese and Japanese. “We need to see more of this cultural enrichment in our community. My children get to experience different cultures in one day.” School Administrator. Comments from attendees, volunteers, Asian Media Access/Pan Asian Arts Alliance staff, Mall of America personnel’s, vendors and performers: The performance was great. There were different, various kinds of dances from the different region in Asia. Performing at Mall of America was a great way to show cased the different Asian culture. Performers love the experience in showing their dedication to dance at the Rotunda. The 9 hours of performance is too long. There were not enough staff and volunteers to help the event. Educational demonstration was too short and fast to gain anything from it. Some activities such as henna tattoo and the game booth were popular. The long hours demand too much time from the AV people. The simple decoration is good. It doesn’t distract the audience. We have successfully reached intended communities. 56 Minnesota Pan Asian Arts Groups have presented their cultural arts throughout the Festival, along with their international counter parts in variety of Arts fields. Presenting various Pan Asian folk arts have been exhibited through dance, music, story-telling, jewelry making and other folk arts demonstrations, etc. Successfully attracted 5,000+ festival goers in 2 series of events, with at least 60% are people of color. The project venue - Mall of America has been selected in part for their complete accessibility to individuals with physical disabilities. The handicap access signs will be posted throughout the promotional materials, such as: websites, flyers, event postcards, posters. Through skillful promotional efforts, we strived to reach a wide audience. We made arrangements to accommodate different-ability and language needs. We passed out flyers to local schools and grocery stores around 7 metro counties. We used various ethnic language newspapers, and radio programs to better promote and outreach to Limited English Proficiency members, and with pre-show arrangements to accommodate different - abilities and language needs.

In 2015, seven workshops for children and youth and 50 workshops for adults were available, with similar expected outcomes in 2016. The year of workshops will conclude with the Annual Artability Show and Sale in October 2016, traditionally featuring over 100 artists with mental illnesses and more than 400 works of art. Artability instructors and staff have regular check-ins with artists to discuss their process, experience and how we can improve the program. Participation in workshops and attendance at the Show and Sale are counted, and Artist/instructors are surveyed on popularity of curriculum and success of locations and facilities as teaching environments.","Artability exceeded projected outcomes, with artists attending 45 days of private workshops and 104 days of public workshops. They attended workshops in north and south Minneapolis, and at the Project Recovery Drop-In Center in St. Paul. In the words of one artist, “I learned a lot!” The 2016 Show and Sale featured 487 works by 125 artists. 231 pieces were sold, 32 more works than in 2015. Achieving our Goals: In 2016 Artability workshops were held 149 days at five People Incorporated locations, and the Show and Sale took place October 28-29 at the Great Hall in downtown St Paul. The show featured visual arts in all media- two and three dimensional, from a few inches across to as tall as six feet. Written work was compiled in an anthology, with 27 authors represented through poetry and prose. Two authors shared their work through readings at opening night, which was very moving for all involved. As stated in our narrative, the main goal of our Artability Workshops and culminating Show and Sale is to empower artists with mental illnesses to share and display their work. Success is inherent in the steady increase in participants and attendees, and the high quality of the work. With a focus on participants’ identities as artists, not their diagnosis, Artability challenges stigma and negative public perceptions about people living with mental illness. The events gather families, friends and the community together to celebrate the artists’ creative talents and art’s great impact on mental health and wellness. Challenges, and What Worked: During 2016, People Incorporated’s Children’s and Family Services moved offices, making scheduling Artability workshops too difficult for facilities staff and direct service providers. Now that Day Treatment and other programs for youth are in their new home, we look forward to holding workshops again in 2017. The greatest strengths of the program continue to be the dedication of our artists and Teaching Artists, one of whom, Corilyn Wagner, became more involved with the program. Corilyn not only continued teaching and added classes, but has also joined the Steering Committee, assisted in coordinating the Show and Sale, and has continued her support as part-time staff with the departure of Advancement Associate Khadijah Ramadan. For the Future: The nature of Artability is to bring the supplies and instruction to the artists when possible. We try to be flexible about changes in locations, as facilities are constantly being improved and added. Our plan for the future is to continue working with People Incorporated staff to integrate the workshops more fully into programming, this will facilitate changes and improvements, maintain and grow our schedules, and reach more artists. Artability’s outreach, in partnership with People Incorporated programs and those of likeminded agencies, connected with an underserved population of people disabled by serious and persistent mental illness. Many of our artists have co-occurring challenges, such as chronic medical issues, and physical issues such as deafness or ambulatory difficulties. Even without physical issues, illnesses such as schizophrenia and bi-polar disorder can manifest symptoms that make transportation, new situations, communication, and participation in large groups of people difficult if not impossible. Artability instructors and leadership understand these needs for accommodation- small class sizes, varieties of techniques, quiet environments and attention to sensory issues, patience and respect for different modes of communication and boundaries are important facets of our workshops. Workshops take place throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area, accessible to public transportation, and are not restricted to any residency. We were very proud this year to begin offering workshops to the People Incorporated’s Northside Community Support Program, located at 1309 Girard Avenue North on the north side of Minneapolis. Ten workshops over 15 days were held this year in a diverse community, in order to bring these programs and the opportunity to make art to people who would not otherwise have the opportunity for financial or medical reasons. Mental illness does not discriminate, nor does Artability. Our program serves any individuals in the Minneapolis and St Paul metropolitan area who are living with mental illness regardless of their socioeconomic status, ethnicity, or gender identity. The Workshops, Show and Sale are wholly free of charge to participants, and assist the artists in marketing and receive proceeds from the sale of their work. Proceeds from work brought in $22,056 this year; $2,474 more than last year. This income means a great deal to our artists. Instructors and staff have regular check-ins with artists to discuss their process, and reflect on their experience and how we can improve the program. We survey artists and instructors on the popularity of curriculum and accessibility of facilities. Staff are still the process of compiling results from 2016, however we can provide an example from one workshop. Seven individuals completed the evaluation, all agreeing that they improved their skills and felt more confident in their abilities after the class.

Several volunteer debrief sessions will be conducted to identify areas of strength and opportunity. The totality of feedback will be used to enhance future Powderhorn Art Fairs. ","The Powderhorn Art Fair facilitated two core outcomes within the community. These connect directly to maintaining a vibrant and relevant arts experience in South Minneapolis; by driving $500,000 of economic impact across artists, local businesses and Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association. The art fair also has become a meaningful tradition for 16,000 local residents by providing an award winning and holistic arts experience. The four artistic goals of the 25th Anniversary Annual Powderhorn Art Fair were achieved through the collaborative partnership of the Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. Each year, goal attainment is driven from having a well-documented plan, appropriate monetary and staffing resources and the cultivated ability to attract a broad and diverse group of multi-disciplinary artists to an award winning art fair. Convening a cadre of high quality visual and performing artists was facilitated by promoting the opportunity across various local and national artist networks. The compilation of fine artists across various stages of their careers also results from the fair’s juried process; which requires the digital submission of portfolio samples that are reviewed by an independent jury. This year’s artist outreach drew 437 applicants from which 229 artists were selected as a Main Exhibitor, Group Exhibitor, or Community Showcase artist. Given that the Powderhorn Art Fair is overseen by Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, organizations that strive to positively shape the Minneapolis community, another core goal involved ensuring a prevalent number of artists came from the community. In this regard, over 100 of artist applicants came from Minneapolis resulting in 35% of the artists in this year’s fair being Minneapolis residents. Although this year’s local artists’ penetration achieved the goal; there is an opportunity to deepen this penetration in a hyper-local way by increasing the number of artists’ participants from within South East Minneapolis. This will necessitate a reconfiguration of promotional and outreach resources to shift this penetration by at least five percentage points next year. Additionally, the ability for fair attendees to experience and engage with art and artists through numerous means was also attained. This was achieved by continuing partnerships with several local arts institutions including; Articulture, Steven Be, Open Eye Figure Theatre and Pillsbury House Theatre. The activities spanned knitting tutorials, a poem mobile and puppet shows. These artistic partnerships add to the overall dimension of the art fair and provides a clear roadmap and precedent for how to increase participant inclusivity in an event that attracts approximately 18,000 persons. The art fair’s economic contributions positively and directly impact over 220 artists, dozens of local businesses and both Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. Based on artist survey input regarding fair sales, artists average approximately $1,250; which represents an estimated $275,000 among artist alone. This coupled with income collected by Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and the estimated uptick in sales for local businesses; the fair continues to drive roughly $500,000 in economic vitality. The Annual Powderhorn Art Fair continues to achieve its artistic goals; which inspires Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board to enhance how it brings local artists and community together through the fair. The 25th Anniversary Powderhorn Art Fair successfully reached the stakeholders it sought to attract. This was achieved by following a multi-faceted promotions and outreach campaign that shaped all key phases of planning and coordination. The resources deployed to ensure the overall success of engaging and connecting with diverse artists, attendees and community partners relied heavily on adhering closely to the year-long planning schedule. During the first several months of event coordination, the majority of resources were aimed at reaching out to diverse artists’ networks. The strength of the Powderhorn Art Fair brand among local and national artists results from seamless execution year-over-year and the extremely picturesque setting of Powderhorn Park where the event is held. These factors, in addition to the tremendous opportunity to showcase and earn income from one’s art, are the central factors surrounding why 437 artists submitted applications for only 229 available slots. These insights were confirmed from artist’s survey input; collected from over 20% of participating artists. The fair’s location and overall organization received the highest rating of ‘Excellent’ by 92% and 83% of respondents. As in year’s past, fair attendees are estimated to have exceeded 16,000 participants; which based on the demographics of the surrounding community likely garnered participation from 12,000 adults and 4,000 youth. The event’s annual community popularity is viewed extremely positively. From survey data collected from attendees, nearly 74% indicated that they knew about the event because of word-of-mouth or as a result of it being a yearly tradition for them and their families. Participants are also attracted to the event as a result of external promotional and outreach efforts that included paid advertisements in local print and online mediums and flyer, poster and program drops throughout the South East Minneapolis community in English and Spanish languages. The artist diversity at this year’s fair also attained the goals that were set; which resulted in over 50% of the Group Exhibitors representing culturally diverse groups and organizations. These arts groups represent populations who serve adults in transition from homelessness, at-risk-youth and weavers from the regionally renowned Somali Museum are a few examples of the collective diversity of artists present. In an effort to achieve its overall event accessibility goals; the event remained free of any monetary expense to attend, it maintains low artist entrant fees in comparison to similar events of its size, increased its number of ADA compliant portable toilets, provided set-up assistance for showing artists with disabilities and continued to partner with park staff to ensure accessible seating areas for attendees. The overall success of this year’s event can certainly be viewed through attaining its goals surrounding the communities the art fair sought to attract and serve.",,81092,"Other, local or private ",91092,,"Erin Rupe, Ryan Allen, Marisa Rivera, Kevin Ely, Reyna Payan, Miski Noor, Wang Vue, Malia Burkhart, Josiah Waderich, Matthew Frater, Cora Lund Preston",0.00,"Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support ",,"Funding for the Powderhorn Arts Festival, a two-day public event featuring juried art by local and national artists, performances and art making.

","Participants reported it was “great to have an opportunity to create new work and a structure to help nurture it."" 40 artists worked on 9 new pieces, collectively playing to 930 people. A continuum of opportunities for emerging artists: Two of the Isolated Acts artists had participated in the Works-In-Progress program in prior years; and one of the Works-In-Progress 2016 groups was invited to create a work for Isolated Acts 2017. Red Eye's Fiscal Year 2016 New Works 4 Weeks program successfully enabled the participating artists to take creative risks in a supportive environment, engage in critical conversation and critique as the projects evolved, form new connections with other performance-makers and eventually experience how audiences engaged with and responded to their creations. Following one performance an audience member emailed, “Had a great time at the show tonight! Sold out – extra chairs added - exciting. […] You can see the impact Red Eye has on the artists’ development. What a wonderful program and evening you guys have built. Thank you!” The artists described the program as ""enlightening,"" ""validating,"" and ""transformational."" Following are additional excerpts from assessments submitted by the Fiscal Year 2016 artists that speak to how well the program served its participants: A critical platform for emerging artists: ""Red Eye's Works In Progress program provides avenues for emerging artists I have yet to find anywhere else in the Twin Cities theatre scene. The process of group feedback, and long timeline, provide the space needed for a safe environment and dialogue to be formed between artists that is highly unique. Critiquing and sharing work with peers here in the cities was the perfect way to start defining my own artistic voice."" ""Creating NOCTURNE was not inevitable; I could have easily continued performing the thoughts of others with joy. But this opportunity gave me the courage and the push I needed to see my vision through. […] At times I felt very vulnerable, and at other times I felt invincible. As a part of a company that is extremely well established, this was the first time that I held the reigns and had agency over my own performance. It was thrilling."" On taking risks: ""I felt completely free to pursue whatever ideas and impulses came through me. [...] Experimentation felt like the only rule, and that was a truly enormous privilege."" On the value of the feedback sessions: ""I appreciate the generosity and openness of the feedback- that it's not about defense of a work but about exploration, reflection, and is in service of the artist creating what they are called to create. The program offers both faith in artists and support for taking risks."" “The feedback sessions were not only helpful to my process, but I found that in giving feedback to others I was able to engage with works in a totally new way that made me appreciate the variety of artists that are a part of the festival. On the long-term impact of the response protocols: ""I have no doubt that the questions asked in protocols will come from my own mouth again, years from now, when I have long since wrapped this experience at Red Eye, but still carry the energy and enthusiasm for both creating and supporting new work into my career."" The 15 performances of this year’s festival were very well-attended, and generated the most ticket revenue ever. The program included the work of two artists of color – Pedro Lander, a recent arrival to the Twin Cities, and the other was Ashwini Ramaswamy, long-time, beloved feature dancer with Ragamala Dance Company, who was presenting her first choreography set on other Ragamala stalwarts. This helped attract a more racially diverse audience than the festival typically draws, specifically a large East Asian audience for Ashwini’s performances, and a larger percentage of young people of color to the Works-In-Progress weekend, which Pedro was part of. In addition, there was a significant LGBTQ contingent of attendees (one of the Works-In-Progress pieces featured a cast of transgender artists, while another of the Works-In-Progress and one of the Isolated Acts pieces explored drag culture), along with an unusual mix of dance, theater, film and music audiences because of the mix of disciplines featured. Many of the participating artists included comments in their evaluation narratives about the benefit of having their work viewed and responded to by artists from multiple disciplines, as well as how the process of engaging with each other throughout the six months of the program forged a genuine sense of community: ""I am also grateful for the people I have met through this process. Forming new relationships with fellow creative people engenders more communication, conversation, and discussion about many topics within our respective fields. Having a diverse cross-section of artists who support each other is a cornerstone to creating a close-knit performance community. The mutual respect for our different artistic expressions only fuels future ground-breaking work."" We began each evening with a brief curtain speech that provided the broader context of the festival and encouraged the audience to stay for a few minutes after the show to provide feedback to the artists. Audiences received annotated playbills, which included short essays from the artists about the work being presented. Red Eye also hosted a post-performance reception each week of the festival to help facilitate informal dialogue between artists and audience. Although we didn’t receive any request for audio described or ASL interpreted performances, we did have patrons in wheelchairs, whose seating requirements were easily accommodated. In terms of economic accessibility, we’ve very much codified a ticket structure that is barrier-free by kicking off each weekend with a pay-as-able show. Most people understand that to mean whatever dollar amount they can afford, but this year a couple patrons paid in “artwork.” We were able to keep ticket prices for the Isolated Acts portion of the festival at $15 or less, while the price for all the Works-In-Progress evenings remained a modest $8.",,44666,"Other, local or private ",54666,,"Kristin Giant, Victoria Temiz, Joshua Tanz, Steve Busa, Laura Gisler, Paige Greenwood, David Kelley, Diana Konopka, Alonso Luengo, Miriam Must, Peter Wold",0.00,"Red Eye Collaboration AKA Red Eye Theater","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support ",,"Funding for NEW WORKS 4 WEEKS 2016, a multidisciplinary performance festival that serves as the culmination of Red Eye’s artist development programs, which provide space and technical support for the creation of new work.

At least one new work of art will be created as a direct result of an artist participating in an Artist Salon. Audience participation will be measured by the number of tickets sold. The creation of new art work will be measured by its presentation during the Artist Salon and through dialogue with the artist(s) following the event.","Educate audiences: 95% of those surveyed expressed a new appreciation for art as a vehicle for exploration and understanding. Advocate for creating new art: 100% of the audience at the 4th Salon were moved by the new work and want to hear more of the composer’s music. Create new audiences: 80% of the attendees want to follow Salon artists in the future (e.g. attend performances, gallery openings). The Rimon Artist Salons in the 2015-16 season were artistically among the strongest Rimon has presented. They encompassed a broad spectrum of art forms and artists—from glass arts, mixed media sculpture, and photography to theater and music. The featured artists themselves spanned several generations—from emerging millennials to seasoned, well-known artists. This variety in the participants and the quality of the dialogue were among the chief strengths of the Artist Salons. Another notable strength was the outstanding commission for violin and piano which received its premiere at the fourth Salon. The piece of music was of exceptionally high quality, and its performance was riveting. It has already received a repeat performance outside of the Artist Salon which is an indicator of its appeal. An enduring outcome from the commission is a strong, new relationship with the composer Ofer Ben-Amots. Some of the unexpected challenges that presented themselves during the season related to changes in personnel. Two of the moderators (Salons 1 and 3—“Sculpting Light: The Art of Glass” and “From Selfie to Groupie”) changed jobs mid-year and thus were unavailable to participate in the Salons. They were replaced with very satisfactory substitutes. One of the artists (Salon 4—“Copyright or Birthright: The Music of Ofer Ben-Amots) was obliged to withdraw but was replaced with two outstanding musicians. Another challenge was uneven performance by some of the community partners which resulted in somewhat smaller audiences at those Salons than anticipated. Rimon’s staff has learned in this process that some community partners, no matter what their initial level of enthusiasm may be, are unreliable, and Rimon will be more circumspect about working with them in the future. Attendance at the Artist Salon series in 2015-16 was somewhat lower than projected (225 instead of 275), although age and cultural diversity goals were met. The first and last Salons were very well-attended, but the middle two attracted smaller audiences, although still within the desired audience size of 40-70 participants. In the case of the second Salon (“Backstage at the Adoption Play Project”), there were two obstacles—Super Bowl Sunday and a modest effort on the artists’ part to reach out to their own fan base. The audience that did attend was treated to an exceptional experience. The third Salon (“From Selfie to Groupie”) had been developed with the Russian-American community as a key partner and intended audience. Rimon was surprised when modest numbers from that community attended, possibly related to an unreliable community partner who promised more than she delivered. Again the event itself was quite strong, but attendance was lower than projected. Over all, Rimon’s leadership was happy to see an increasing number of younger adults attending the Artist Salons in addition to the usual cohort of adults over 40. There were a significant number of non-Jewish audience members which was a key outreach goal. This was accomplished by emphasizing the universal appeal of the ideas embedded in each Salon topic. Rimon continues to reach out to the disabilities community, but no one who might have used the advertised services of a sign language interpreter registered for a Salon.",,5580,"Other, local or private",15580,,"Robyn Awend, Judy Brier, Joel Carter, Sandra Felemovicius, Debra Fisher Goldstein, Michael Forstein, Judy Gaviser, Ann Ginsburgh Hofkin, Phil Goldman, Jonathan Gross, Janet Kampf, Darla Kashian, Maury Landsman, Andrea Lubov, Lynda Monick-Isenberg, Karen Nemer, Paula Pergament, Lisa Pogoff, Marley Richman, Jason Rose, Todd Sandler, Leighton Siegel, Rachel Stock Spilker, Peter Sussman, Katherine Tane",0.00,"Rimon: The Minnesota Jewish Arts Council","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 2015 - 2016 Artist Salon Series, a four-event series engaging artists from different disciplines in dialogue with local audiences.

The show will accommodate and feature 65-100 cast members ages 7-70+ providing an alternative to a holiday show that centers on Christmas, and will attract audiences looking for new imaginative work and new music, as evidenced by our ticket sales for the performances of an average house of 175 for each of the 6 performances. Our cast will complete a survey after the show opens which will ask them to evaluate their experience, specifically working on a brand new show and brand new music. These surveys are done after each one of our productions and we adapt them to the specific experience in the specific show. Our ticket sales will indicate our audience interest in seeing a new show.","Over 90% of our cast indicated on a cast survey that they were proud of the final product and excited to have premiered a new work. Our audiences were responsive with lots of laughter in addition to applause in every single performance - which does not always happen in shows! The chance to ""light the torch"" of a new playwright and composer was huge and for them to see their work come to life! We did achieve our artistic goals! Reluctant Dragon was a very well written, funny, entertaining show that was a fun production to produce, and fit our Rosetown style perfectly. The playwright was very familiar with Rosetown Playhouse and was able to write in the additional small characters and ""group"" scenes that provide opportunities for many. The composer and the arranger composed 11 songs from solos to all cast songs that were challenging and yet accessible, and they enhanced the storyline beautifully. We choreographed most of the songs and that enriched the cast experience. The message of the play itself was very timely and very affirming of avoiding stereotypes, ""not judging a book by its cover,"" allowing fear and ignorance to cloud what we really know about others. What didn't work as well was the ""producing"" of the actual new piece and we learned that we need to have someone driving the process as the piece is being written - script revisions, lyrics and music. We had people hired to do the work, but no one really in charge of pushing deadlines etc. which made for some frustrations near audition time. The strengths of creating a new work were the artists: playwright, composer- both brand new to doing this work and composer/arranger- more experienced. Another difficulty with doing a new work is that people are unfamiliar with it and so we need to do a better job of publicizing what it is, giving some musical and script examples, highlighting the opportunity to do something NEW instead of the same old shows. Our audition numbers were lower than what we often have, still plenty of people to perform the show well and plenty of talent. The same issue happens with advertising the show itself to an audience. When it is a new work, it is harder to sell to the audience. The title recognition of ""Reluctant Dragon"" was not as strong as we anticipated. We did reach our intended community, with a small but significant amount of diversity in our actors and audience. One of our KaRen immigrant students who has been involved (along with others) in Rosetown shows had a lead role in this show which was a milestone for that relationship between Rosetown Playhouse and the Karen students we have been working with. Our audiences were what we expected. We had an ASL interpreted performance and had hearing impaired audience. We created a ""family pass"" ticket which helped reduce the price of tickets for our families who come multiple times to the show. We gave comp tickets and did not turn away anyone for lack of funds. Meeting our goals for making the project accessible to all who might wish to participate probably had more to do with the timing of the show and has encouraged us to rethink the rehearsal schedule (time, lateness) and timing of December for performance particularly since we are intentionally not doing ""Christmas"" themed shows.",,16940,"Other, local or private",26940,,"Mike Cogan, Steven Kelitz, Margot Olsen, Melissa Lund, Shana Crosson, Heather Lee Anderson, Wachen Anderson, Katie Bates, Jacqueline Enge, Kay Hatlestad, Jodie Intihar, Valerie Neri, Kaying Thao, Josh Warn",0.00,"Rosetown Playhouse","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for The Reluctant Dragon, a new musical based on the 1898 children's story of the same title.

For the 2016 Spring Art Crawl we placed a lot of emphasis on our catalog which highlights the artists participating and how to get a hold of them after the crawl. Our catalog this year was a full color book that artists could purchase space in to showcase their work.

We even had people calling ahead of time to secure a catalog, something that we have never had in the past. Our direct challenges come from having dedicated building organizers, we have put plans in place to have more meetings and check points to ensure that the building organizers are informed and have all they need to help make the Art Craw a success. Our surveys informed us that many volunteers were unsure what to say to people when they came to get a catalog. In response to that feedback, the Saint Paul Art Collective will also be putting together a bit of a script to help volunteers convey that the catalogs are available with an at-will donation, and if someone cannot donate they should still be given a catalog.

The difference in articulation of 'audience' that we are starting to talk about is 'ticketed audience members' as opposed to 'artist audience served'. We started to do surveys last season to 'ticketed audience members' and are currently working with a marketing person to try and see how we can increase ticketed audience members. We have applied for some grants to do a better evaluation of these ticketed audience members, so that we can increase their numbers in the future. We are in an accessible building now (even the stage is accessible at Landmark Center, and it wasn't at History Theater), and we have increased signage and added ushers to the ground floor entrance to help people find their way. We have a fairly comprehensive ADA plan, which includes all that we are capable of doing now. We have accessible seating and a staff that is trained to offer to make accommodation to anyone with special needs.",,10950,"Other, local or private",20950,,"John Mule, Nicci Bachman Gibas, Tom Tarnow",0.00,"Sample Night Live!","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for three months of Sample Night Live!, a monthly evening of performances previewing upcoming and ongoing Twin Cities arts events at the Landmark Center in downtown St Paul from November 2015 to January 2016.",2015-10-01,2016-01-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Barbe,"Marshall Hansen","Sample Night Live!","1271 Hague Ave","St Paul",MN,55104,"(612) 201-4000 ",producer@samplenightlive.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-661,"Alia Jeraj: Youth programming, artistic education; Susan Rotilie: Education, artistic, volunteerism; Shelia McComb: Computer systems, finance, education; Eric Bruce: General management, audience development, volunteerism; Lacey Prpic Hedtke: Artistic, general management, fundraising; Roxane Wallace-Patterson: Artistic; Patty Gordon: Artistic, computer systems, education; Rebecca Cline: Fundraising, audience development, Community Education; Tom Borrup: Community Education, organizational development, general management.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 32598,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","We will engage 550 audience members over 10 performances at the Southern Theater.

In addition, audience members reacted overwhelmingly positive in post-performance informal conversation and on social media: ""A truly important piece of theater."" (Audience member) We greatly surpassed our artistic goals for this project: GOAL: To develop a high quality production in which all artists involved are integral to and invested in the production. EVALUATION: The artistic process for researching and creating JUNE was inspiring for the artists involved. Many of the performers approached the director to say how important the process was to them as queer women. Some had never had the opportunity to play a character with which they identify, or that has a romantic or complex story (they are often playing boys or older women or animal characters; the funny parts). They described the experience as “life-changing”: having your first stage kiss (at age 28), or exploring a character that looks and moves like you, or researching a place in time that opened the doors for who you are today. We focused on creating a cohesive team and a respectful rehearsal room from the start and it made a huge difference. From performers during the process: “I feel like the cast is bonding quickly because you have created a safe, respectful space. I'm very excited and grateful to be a part of this project.” ""I have to say, it's been awhile since I've felt this excited to be going to rehearsals where I don't know anyone. It feels wonderful to be creating with, and getting to know, a whole group of kick ass women. Thank you for including me in this process. I couldn't be happier to be involved."" ""I feel like a completely new person."" GOAL: To serve as a space for critical thought and conversation in our community. EVALUATION: Our audiences engaged in thoughtful post-show conversations, and brought those conversations out into their communities. This buzz around this show on social media (including positive reviews and thematic conversation) was unprecedented for Savage Umbrella: “It's important that you go see Savage Umbrella's JUNE at the Southern if you want to support art that has a message relevant to our community. Even better, it's relevant beyond our community and pretty much everyone would benefit from seeing it. It's hilarious and sad and sexy and brave. You will find yourself somewhere on that stage. And you will be confronted with people that maybe you never thought about, but you probably should have.” (Unsolicited audience feedback via Facebook.) Audience members who identify as queer thanked us for telling this story and said, “This is exactly what I needed” and called it “a truly important piece of theater.” Audience members who do not identify as queer reported connecting the universal themes and gaining expanded knowledge of this tumultuous historical time. Our post-performance community talkback was not well attended, but the conversation was incredible. Instead of a formal structure, we adapted to have an informal conversation in the audience seats including the cast and company. In the future, we plan avoid holding talkbacks on Sundays and publicize the event much further in advance. We view our community as two core (and often intertwining) constituencies—artists and audiences. ARTISTS: As we described in the previous question, we were incredibly successful in engaging our artists on this project. The performers, musicians, designers, and other team members built the production from the ground up including the characters, story, music, and mood. Each artist expressed feeling integral to the process as a whole (and expressed interest in working with Savage Umbrella in the future). In post-production artist surveys, the following feedback was provided: “This project was very focused and we had a lot to inspire us. The structure around the free-wheeling creation helped us make the most of the time.” “Communication of expectations was very clear, and my input was valued.” AUDIENCES: Audience members of ARTshare are much less likely to fill out post-performance surveys than audiences we’ve encountered in other venues. Possible reasons for this include that more attendees are new to Savage Umbrella, the venue is less intimate, the Southern also asks for a survey (fatigue), and we have a less personal connection with each audience member than we do at our own space. This lack of survey responses means we do not have sufficient data to accurately assess diversity. Anecdotally, our audience was more diverse in age than Savage Umbrella’s usual audience (ARTshare members tend to skew older) and, based on post-performance audience conversations, it seemed there was a much higher percentage of attendees who identify as queer than is usual for the Southern Theater (though not for Savage Umbrella). However, due to the thematic content of the show, it may also be true that more attendees were discussing their own identification than they would after a different production. There may also have been more queer audience members (especially women) because of our marketing and outreach efforts with local queer arts and community organizations. ACCESSIBILITY: We had a number of attendees with mobile impairments that reported being able to engage with the production wholly through quality seating arrangements. Although we made extra efforts to publicize our offered ASL interpreted performance, we did not have any attendees take advantage of this service. This is not unusual for Savage Umbrella (and other small companies). Through conversations with the interpreters, we’ve identified some potential marketing strategies for our next project and will avoid scheduling this service on performance dates that are historically less attended (Wednesdays and Sundays). ADDITIONAL OUTREACH: We also engaged in outreach with theater students at the University of Minnesota (through Lisa Channer). After they attended the production, we attended their class to have a guided conversation about the creative process and themes of the work. It was invigorating and useful for us, as well as the students.",,5226,"Other, local or private",15226,,"Laura Leffler-McCabe, Hannah K Holman, Lisa Brimmer, Russ Dugger, Heidi Jedlicka Halvarson, Mason Mahoney, Carl Atiya Swanson, Blake E Bolan, Amber Davis, Rachel Nelson",0.00,"Savage Umbrella","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to develop and produce June, a new play set in pre-Stonewall America about women grappling with fear, love, and identity.

With an estimated 60% of attendees residing in a Zip Code where annual household entertainment expenditures are 75% or less the Seven County Metro average, the event provided an underserved population with a free arts programming. 86 performing and 60 display artists (Minnesota-based) participated in the project. ACHIEVE ARTISTIC GOALS: Diverse/quality jazz performances: Yes. Six performing groups presented six+ jazz genres (NOLA, big-band, smooth, traditional standards, instrumental-piano, vocal/soul. 60+ display artists took part in this year's Fest, many provided live demonstrations. Reach an underserved community. Our survey shows that approx. 60% of our attendees reside in Zip Codes where annual HH entertainment expenditures are 75% (or less) the Seven County Metro average. Engaging experience. As it has been for the past 15 years, JazzFest is a living, breathing and genuine testimony to the power of arts-based community development. It's no secret we, as a society, are experiencing tough times; especially in the area of race relations. Sites witnessed numerous times during the event include: a) Young African American men embracing Saint Paul Police Officers; b) Children of all ethnicities interacting in our Family Fun Zone; c) People of all walks (more on our specific audience demos coming up) of life engaging with each other during and between performing artists' sets; d) Inquisitive attendees asking questions during our display artists' demonstrations. A first time Fest attendee (Caucasian, 30 years old, suburbanite) commented as he left, ""This event is a true diamond. What a day."" Yes, JF16 did indeed build community. WHAT WORKED: Headliner and Grammy Award Winner Kirk Whalum's set which included him strolling through the crowd during the Whitney Houston classic, ""I Will Always Love You."" Mr. Whalum performed the song's sax solo in the original recording. Anthony Walker and Reverend Carl Walker's set. Reverend Carl Walker, founder of the Walker-West Music Academy (which is located on Selby Ave) performed with his highly acclaimed son/pianist Anthony. It was old home week! We had the highest number of visual display artists (60+, most live in the neighborhood. We are of the strong belief that the Fest should provide area artists the opportunity to display their creations without having to take out a second mortgage). WHAT DIDN'T: 2016 was the smoothest of all our 15 JazzFests. The weather was perfect. Sound/stage was top notch. DO DIFFERENTLY: Book a global jazz act. We had one lined up; however, they had to back out due to an unexpected commitment. REACH INTENDED COMMUNITY: Audience: Yes-12+K in attendance. From 5:30 on, grounds were packed. Audience Demos: Age: Under 18: 16% | 18-30: 30% | 31-45: 16% | 46-60: 28% | Over 60: 10%. Ethnicity: African American: 56% | Caucasian: 36% | Latino: 4% | Asian: 1% | Other: 3%.

Minnesota Artists (Performing and Display): Approx. 146 which was quite a bit higher than our '16 estimate and prior history. Our goal was 110. ESTIMATED VS. ACTUAL POPULATION BENEFITING: We were a bit short of our 15K attendance goal which was probably a bit optimistic, primarily due to '16 being our 15th anniversary. On the flipside, our audience was the most diverse we've seen. There was a definite increase in the number of millennials and young families in attendance, the outcome of an aggressive Facebook ad campaign and two large, 4-color ads in City Pages. OPEN/ACCESSIBLE: As we have in the past, there is plenty of area for our limited mobility guests to sit near the stage. In addition, the area behind the stage is reserved for handicap parking.

Our qualitative outcome is for 80% of the singers and the conductor to feel we have reached our goal of artistic satisfaction. Our post project evaluation will include a meeting of the singers to provide feedback to the board of directors both verbally and through survey. The conductor will provide his evaluation through a written survey.","In our post-project review, we heard how both the singers themselves and those who attended the concerts, found the concerts to be both inspiring and educational. Many discovered how musically complex and sophisticated this genre is. We exceeded our goals for artistic satisfaction and performed for nearly 400 people. While this number was lower than our goal it was one of our largest audiences. This project was both successful and inspiring. Through this two hour concert both audience and singers experienced the rich texture and variety of music written by Black composers outside the spiritual, gospel, and jazz genres, which are most often associated with them. The project had four artistic goals, all of which were fully realized. The singers had a chance to learn, and the audience to hear, works that were mostly unfamiliar to them. These works were complex and demonstrated the beauty and sophistication of works from this little known genre. Through both program notes and verbal comments by our conductor, G. Phillip Shoultz, singers and audience members learned of the historical context of these pieces and how the personal background of the composers had influenced their style and their compositions. Our program also featured music written by Black women. In fact one of the composers featured, Undine Smith Moore, (1904 – 1989) is known as the Dean of Black Women composers for blazing a trail for others. Most of our singers had never heard of her but expressed a desire to perform more of her music. The musical quality of the program was excellent. Dr. Shoultz is one of the top young conductors in the US. We brought to Minnesota soloist Dr. Gregory Broughton, of the University of Georgia, who is known as one of the top tenors in the US in performing our concert center piece, the oratorio “I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes.” This piece was accompanied by a professional orchestra. This performance was unique since the piece, when it is performed, is most often performed with only a piano. The results were stunning with audience members, even those experienced choral audience members, commenting on how moved they were and wondering why they had never heard this piece before. Most of our artistic plans worked well – rehearsal time was adequate for learning the music and performing at a high level. The addition of the children’s choir, ComMUSICation, added both additional opportunities for combined adult/children singing but also provided artistic growth for these children. They had challenging role and were expected to perform at a higher level than they had previously done. They appreciated this challenge and the audience was impressed with their growth from the previous time we had performed with them. One area we would change if we did a similar project, was that the concert ended up being too long. We have found 60 – 75 minute concerts are optimal, but this concert ended up being nearly two hours long (with an intermission). This happened, in part, because the orchestra played two pieces alone and the conductor’s comments took more time than planned. However, the conductor’s concert comments were excellent and very important to the artistic goal of the concert. In hindsight, programming two or three pieces less would have made the concert more enjoyable for our audience. Overall, we were extremely pleased with the outcome. As planned, the participants and attendees served and benefited by this project were drawn from the Twin Cities metro area and western Wisconsin. There was a high level of interest and enthusiasm for this project from area choral singers and we ended up with 70 singers (50 adults and 20 children under 18) who volunteered many hours of their time and completed the project. These singers, auditioned for choral singing skills, were from a wide range of ages: 13 – 75 years old. Many of the children come from communities of color. Singers were provided a variety of aids to learn music so that the different learning styles could be accommodated. Since the singers came from a variety of religious/ethnic/socioeconomic backgrounds, no one was required to pay to participate. All felt that their religious beliefs were not compromised in any way by the texts of the music chosen. A full orchestra, honoring the specifications of the composer, was hired to perform the oratorio. The collaborative singer/conductor model unique to Singers in Accord helps to further weave the rich fabric of community relationships built around choral music. In these ways our intended community was the one reached. While we accomplished tremendous diversity of age, gender, and ethnicity in our choir, our audience was diverse primarily only by age and gender. Since this concert was focused on performing music of Black Composers, we promoted the concert, using discounted tickets to most of the Black Church congregations in the Twin Cities. Unfortunately our attendance surveys indicated that not many individuals from those churches attended. The ethnic diversity we did have in our audiences came primarily from families of the children who were performing. We were delighted to see that and promoted their attendance by providing free tickets to families of the children. In the future, we will likely need to make personal contacts and appearances at churches or community gatherings if we are to attract more people of color to a concert like this. We also attempted to draw more students to the concert through offering free-tickets to students. This drew a few students, but not as many as we hoped. Future attempts will be made to promote the concert to school choirs so that students can be encouraged to come in groups not just as individuals.",,11100,"Other, local or private",21100,,"Dan Digre, Mike Borg, Schele Smith, Jan Leclair, Ken Williams, Penny Meier",0.00,"Singers in Accord","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to present a concert with guest conductor G Phillip Shoultz, III, titled, I Will Lift Mine Eyes: Celebrating the Choral Tradition of Black Composers.

We will measure the outcomes with audience surveys, Twin Cities Jewish Chorale membership survey, Board evaluative reflection, review of concert recordings, number of audience members at performance, anecdotal responses from audience members.","Twin Cities Jewish Chorale directed touched about 415 audience members at three concert performances, 39 Twin Cities Jewish Chorale members through rehearsals and performances, 40 Sholom Home residents and 25 Talmud Torah students at outreach programs. Twin Cities Jewish Chorale and Sabes Jewish Community Center Inclusion program provided the community musical experiences through a group of singers, with and without disabilities, sharing choral music with passion and enthusiasm. Twin Cities Jewish Chorale had two artistic goals. One goal was to provide the Twin Cities Jewish community choral music experiences that embodied Jewish culture and music the community may not hear otherwise. Twin Cities Jewish Chorale provided a different style of concert programming this year under the leadership of its new director, Jayson Rodovsky. Mr. Rodovsky has a wealth of knowledge of choral music and is acquainted with several current composers. As a result, he brought into the Chorale’s repertoire many new pieces for this season and future seasons. He also programmed this year’s concerts to include other local performers who enhanced each program’s theme and the overall experience. Each concert included a written program that listed pieces and performers and provided notes about them. In this way the audience’s experience was more than musical and visual; it was also educational! The rationale is the belief that a greater understanding of the music, text, and composers creates a richer experience for the audience. We believe we met our goal, judging by audience reactions at the concerts, and feedback following them, Chorale members, and Advisory Board members. This was particularly the case for the June concerts. The June concerts were programmed to feature Jewish humor and fun, and the atmosphere within the performance space was to make that easier to experience. The February concert was the first for the director and choir as a team. Glitches and jitters from that concert informed our plans for upcoming rehearsals and concerts. Also, the positive reactions to adding other performers to the program reinforced our conviction that sharing a concert with varied musical partners creates a much richer experience for the audience and participants. There were 215 people of a range of ages in the audience for the February 2016 concert. The June concerts brought in around 250 people. The Chorale’s second goal was to increase the consistency of its artistic growth. The success of this goal was difficult to measure. A variety of rehearsal strategies were used: the use of online listening aids increased; the number of sectionals increased significantly over previous years; Gary Wolfman, himself a conductor, helped run those sectionals; Max Elkin, a long-standing promoter of the Yiddish language in this region, coached the group on its Yiddish pieces as he has done in the past; each rehearsal focused on blend, intonation, dynamics, tempo, and phrasing. All of these efforts were valuable to the Chorale singers. Core members of the group are amateur performers who love to sing. The large amount of time in rehearsal was necessary; the modeling, creative coaching, and practice were important to the singers. Overall, especially by the June concerts, the group could communicate the music’s message with enough confidence to communicate the pleasure they felt performing it as well. As a choral group, Twin Cities Jewish Chorale experienced changes this year that gave the group a slightly different persona. There was more variety in the concert programs. Mr. Rodovsky added several performers to each concert (e.g., four cantors from local synagogues; The Sons, a group of local musicians; two Twin Cities Jewish Chorale members performing on piano and violin; and local members of Hazamir: The International Jewish High School Choir). And the spring concerts were within a cabaret setting. All of this provided regular attendees to Twin Cities Jewish Chorale concerts new experiences. It also created a rich musical experience for newcomers to Twin Cities Jewish Chorale concerts or to Jewish choral music in general. Another change from previous seasons was to add a second June concert so that one would be on a Thursday evening and the other on a Sunday afternoon. Past seasons only had Sunday afternoon concerts. The intention for this change was to reach community members who would find an evening concert easier to attend than Sunday afternoon concerts. The June concerts drew a larger audience than previous June concerts and were much more enthusiastically received. We attribute this partly to the programming changes described above and the addition of a second performance. This year, we tried a new measurement tool that turned out to be unsuccessful. We provided audience members a simple, short survey on their tables at the Sunday afternoon concert as a way to get more audience feedback. It was meant to be informal, with no pressure to participate. Unfortunately, the response was very limited. Next time, we will add more of an incentive to the process and, hopefully, attract more responses. Part of our outreach this season was to collaborate with the Inclusion program at Sabes Jewish Community Center, a program through which people with special needs can participate in all Sabes Jewish Community Center programs. The Chorale's original plan was to have a performance with an educational focus on choral singing and on the particular pieces being performed. However this evolved into a plan in which members of the Inclusion program could join the Chorale and fully participate in rehearsals and concerts throughout the season, with the support of two Inclusion staff members and a great deal of between-rehearsal support within the Inclusion program.

At each event, 20-200 people will encounter and engage with Somali traditional art and culture. Success of this project will be measured by ongoing demand for the program. We will track locations continuing to request presentations, and plan for future programming with those sites. Content of the culture programming will be evaluated by Somali Museum advisors, including: Ahmed Ismail Yusuf, poet and folklorist; Scott Pollock, American Swedish Institute; Cadar Kaahin, historian and storyteller; and Said Salah Ahmed, Board Chair of the Somali Museum and globally-respected leader in Somali culture preservation.","The Somali Museum presented the Mobile Culture Show at 24 events, engaging 2,115 participants in an interaction with Somali culture and art. 900 attendees were Somali-American. Youth who had never before studied their traditional culture immersed themselves in learning about traditional artifacts and artworks, and non-Somalis gained information about Somali culture and art for the first time. The Somali Museum aimed to increase access to Somali traditional arts by bringing a mobile exhibition out into the community. We achieved this goal by bringing mobile exhibitions to 24 community events around the metro. These events comprised an exhibition of cultural artifacts, a lecture presentation, a question-and-answer period, and in some cases a family storytelling component. For 8 locations, the event included performance by the Traditional Dance Troupe. This enabled audiences to immerse themselves in Somalia's lively, joyful traditional dance. Many audience members cited the dance component as their favorite part of the event. Locations for this program were as follows: 1) Immanuel Lutheran Church – Cross Cultural Dialogue Presentation; 2,3) University of Minnesota, Coffman Union – Gallery Opening Reception, Culture Showcase; 4) West Bank Business Association – West Bank Crash Course; 5) Anoka County Immigration and Refugee Committee – Cultural Competence Training; 6-11) Franklin Library – Franklin Culture Camp; 12) CommonBond Communities – Community Presentation; 13) Children’s Theater Company – Brown Bag Lunch; 14) Whittier International School – Poetry Event; 15) Integrated Arts Academy – Extracurricular presentation; 16) Armatage Elementary – Extracurricular presentation; 17) Skyview Elementary School – Student club presentation; 18) Minnesota History Center – Valentine’s Day Around the World; 19) General Mills – Cultural Workshop; 20) ALIF Center – Family Event; 21) St Paul College – Racial Equity Talks; 22) Whittier School – Whittier Alliance Community Presentation; 23) Lyndale School – Family Cultural Night; 24) Al Amal School – Cultural Night. One highlight from the project was a 6-week event at Franklin Library. After previous seasons, we determined that recurring events are more effective for deepening youth’s engagement. This year, we partnered with Franklin Library because it is a major community hub and hangout for Somali teens. We offered a 6-week program as part of the Library’s regular teen programming, which we called “Franklin Culture Camp.” This program included 3 presentations of artifacts and art history lecture, followed by 3 presentations focused on dance. The participants shared positive feedback, saying that they had never known their own art history was something they could “study” the way they study other subjects in class. Many participants pledged to continue as volunteers at the Somali Museum. Overall, demand for this program exceeded our expectations, and we were delighted to present this program at 24 locations. To accommodate increased demand, we set up a system of work-sharing among staff, rather than having all staff at each event. This encouraged us to train all staff in cultural presentations and setting up displays, which has increased our capacity. We also adapted our pay documentation to tracking weekly hours, rather than hours per event. This was an effective solution, and we will continue this approach as the program grows. We aimed to target Somali youth re-connecting with their heritage and non-Somalis encountering Somali culture for the first time. We achieved this goal by bringing mobile exhibitions to 24 community events with diverse audiences. These events were catered to different audiences’ needs, allowing non-Somalis to ask questions and begin to understand Somali artistic culture, while challenging Somali youth participants to dig deeply into studying their own heritage. Participants at locations were as follows: Immanuel Lutheran Church – 45 participants (all non- Somali adults); University of Minnesota, Coffman Union – 65 participants (mixed Somali and non-Somali college students); Coffman Union Event 2 – 300 (mixed Somali and non-Somali students and instructors); West Bank Business Association – 10 participants (mixed Somali and non-Somali adults and youth); Anoka County Immigration and Refugee Committee – 100 (non-Somali adults); Franklin Library – 15 (all Somali youth); CommonBond Communities – 40 (mixed Somali and non-Somali adults); Children’s Theater Company – 30 (non-Somali adults); Whittier International School – 150 (mixed Somali and non-Somali parents and children); Integrated Arts Academy – 60 (non-Somali high school students); Armatage Elementary – 100 (mixed Somali and non-Somali elementary students); Skyview Upper Elementary School – 40 (Somali students); Minnesota History Center – 600 (mixed Somali and non-Somali families and children); General Mills Headquarters – 20 (mixed Somali and non-Somali adults); ALIF Center – 80 (Somali parents and children); Saint Paul College – 60 (mixed Somali and non-Somali college students and instructors); Whittier School – 100 (mixed Somali and non-Somali adults and children); Lyndale Community School – 200 (mixed Somali and non-Somali parents and children); Al Amal School – 100 (all Somali high school students). Our goal was to increase access for Minnesotans of all backgrounds, and particularly Somali-American youth, to Somali culture and art. We achieved this goal by engaging an estimated 2,115 people. Of these, estimated 900 participants were of Somali background. Both non-Somali and Somali heritage participants shared positive feedback, saying that the Somali Museum offers a resource for cultural learning that is unavailable from any other program in the Twin Cities. Interestingly, both Somalis and non-Somalis shared a similar comment: they were happy to begin to learn about Somali art and culture, but this event didn’t do enough to teach the full complexity of Somali culture. Participants from both demographics expressed that one-time events were essential for “breaking the ice,” but they also desired opportunity for deeper study. The Somali Museum is taking this feedback to its leadership and will deeply consider ways to offer deeper study in the future.

We seek to increase the audience attending events that feature Minnesota made experimental film and animation. We conduct surveys with attendees, performers and volunteers on site. We conduct audience and participant counts before and after the event.","We think that the quantitative outcomes of the festival are disproportionate to our size. We interweave film with 9 different musical acts throughout the day, and 500 attendees experience 42 different locally made films. There really aren’t any other festivals in the region that do this. The 2016 Square Lake Festival achieved its artistic goals of promoting the underserved artistic communities of experimental, animation and short film. We achieved this goal via a sold out festival that featured some of the most popular music acts of the Twin Cities. Generally speaking, attendees frequent our event for the intimate music experience with acts that generally play much larger events. Though drawn to the music, the artistic program is 50% film, so these same attendees leave the event with an increased awareness and appreciation for locally made, independent film. What worked really well this year was the increased number of film scores. Each year we commission a film score, but in 2016 we knew of two different film score projects that we wanted to include. One was a locally produced, feature length animation. We’ve always wanted to use a local animation for the film score. The other was a film score project called Seven Secrets of Snow. We challenged ourselves by digging deeper into our unique event identity, and it worked. We sold out the show, and we did something that few other events are doing. Something we’d do differently if we could go back in time would be to emphasize our radius clause in performer contracts. Radius clauses are requests from the venue for a contracted performer to not play another show in a competing market for a certain amount of time prior to and after the event. This year, our headliner booked a free local show the day after our event, and we felt its impact on our ticket sales. We had requested a radius clause, but the booking agent made a mistake. We recovered, through hard work and networking to sell remaining tickets, but this is something that took a lot of time and was frustrating for us. We’d prefer to avoid this in the future, so we’re going to make our own event contract. Generally speaking we did reach our intended community. We received more film submissions than any previous year, and many of these submissions came from outside the core-Metro area. Our event has witnessed a change in attendees over the last five years, with more coming from suburban areas than in the past where most came from core-Metro. I would not describe the actual community served any differently than I did in our initial proposal. Our outreach efforts did result in community diversity, especially in respect to our film festival submissions. Going back 7 years, there was a popular film festival submission website called Withoutabox.com. We could never afford to use this service, as it required a $2,000 up front fee in order to collect submissions for the low price we wanted to charge. However, about 5 years ago, a new service became available called FilmFreeway.com This service has no upfront fees, and only charges a small percentage on submissions. FilmFreeway has become very popular, and is a powerful tool for us to reach filmmakers all across Minnesota. The impact on the diversity of submissions is considerable. Attendees that can’t afford to pay for a ticket can volunteer. In 2016, there were 31 volunteers. Filmmakers that can’t afford to pay the submission fee can ask for a waiver. In respect to volunteers, we accept nearly all volunteer requests that we receive. We also offer reduced admission for bikers. An in respect to film festival waivers, our policy is to offer waivers to all students who request them, and we still consider these applicants for festival prizes.",,17515,"Other, local or private",27515,,"PaHoua Yang Hoffman, Sam Ziemer, Mary O'Brien",0.00,"Square Lake Film and Music Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 2016 Square Lake Film and Music Festival, a daylong, outdoor celebration of Minnesota-made music and film held on a scenic 25-acre hobby farm near Stillwater.

Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater also hopes to engage these audiences in post-performance discussions about the work presented and the creative process. On-site interviews and written evaluations will be offered for the veteran participants in the project. Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater will provide on-line evaluation surveys for the VA Staff. The principal evaluation tool for the performance portion of the project will be Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater’s Talk Piece, to be recorded by Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater.","The most significant outcome of this project was the emotional impact it had on both the veterans and the artists of our company. As one veteran expressed to a staff member, “I was sad when I came in, but I feel better now.” And another commented, “That was spectacular!” This new project, Tours of Duty, was enormously successful both artistically and organizationally. The project was implemented as described in the grant proposal. After completing the Planning Process in September, Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater presented a series of Life Stories workshops for veterans at the VA Adult Day Health Care Center in Richfield. These workshops invited the veterans to share their stories and experiences of wartime and returning home. Their stories were then translated into movement to capture the emotional impact of the experience. The participants represented a broad spectrum of veterans from Iraq/Afghanistan to Viet Nam to Korea to WWII. Although these conflicts had very different historical contexts, the commonality and comradeship between the vets was extraordinarily evident. As many of the vets were present for a number of the workshops, we were able to build on the material we had developed with them previously. Eventually, we wrote a song combining images from their stories and created lyrics set to the melody of “Hallelujah” by Leonard Cohen. All of the veterans and staff learned the song and helped to create movement for it. The project concluded with the company creating a “theater” in the VA Day Center with the use of pipe and drape, lighting, and sound equipment. On the final two days of the project, the company presented performances for the vets, their family members, and staff. The performances represented selections from Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater repertory including Sentry, the company’s critically acclaimed work which illuminates the life of a soldier. Both performances concluded with Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater’s Talk Piece, an audience/performer discussion. The overall response to the entire project was overwhelmingly positive, both from the veterans and the staff. For all of our company members, it was extremely powerful emotionally. These men, who had experienced and seen events we can only imagine, opened their hearts to us and could not have been more appreciative of our time with them and our interest in their stories. There is only one thing we would do differently, if schedule and funding allowed. That would be to extend the project over a longer period of time. It was very difficult to say “goodbye” on the last day and many of the veterans asked when we would be returning. As we had anticipated, the populations we reached through this project are underserved by the arts for a number of reasons. Many of the vets are dealing with a number of mental and physical disabilities including PTSD, memory loss, hearing loss, amputation, or dementia, among others. Further, many live alone and have little access to transportation, furthering their social isolation. And, sadly, many are living below the poverty line. We designed this project to be entirely accessible to all of the participants, and we were very successful. Many of the veterans are transported to Adult Day Health Care by Metro Mobility or family members, helping mitigate that barrier to participation. Because of the diversity of abilities, the workshops were conducted with all participants seated in chairs. Those who were able to stand were assisted by Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater company members to ensure their safety. We made use of microphones and sound equipment to address issues of hearing loss. Also, because we worked with many of the veterans over a number of workshops, we built a vocabulary of movement exercises which assisted those with memory loss. We also engaged the staff during these workshops, many of whom commented about how much they had learned about their clients as result of our project. Finally, as we had previously determined, access to the theater is very limited for all of the reasons mentioned above. Therefore we brought the theater to the veterans. We rented pipe and drape, lighting instruments, and sound equipment to create a theatrical experience in the Adult Day Center. The vets enjoyed watching the company set up and transform their space almost as much as seeing the performance. The company presented two performances on site which included selections from Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater repertory. One of the works, Sentry, was particularly significant for this population as it is a work that sheds light on the life of a soldier. Many of the audience members were brought to tears by the performance. We concluded both performances with our signature Talk Piece in which we engage the audience in a discussion about the work. The veterans, family members, and staff were enormously grateful for this project and our time spent with them. Over the course of Tours of Duty we engaged an average of 30 veterans and 6 staff in each of the series of workshops. The performances, which we presented on site, reached an additional audience of the veterans’ family members. We also offered the veterans and their families, as well as the VA staff, reduced-price tickets to Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater’s Twin Cities performances in February at the Cowles Center, although we don’t believe there were any takers, due to the barriers discussed above.",,5000,"Other, local or private",15000,,"Ruth Balbach, Howard Bell, Michael Brooks, Judith Johnson, Jennifer Olson, Zoe Sealy, Carin Skowronsky, V Paul Virtucio",0.00,"Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for Tours of Duty, a program of Life Stories workshops and on-site performances presented at the VA Adult Day Health Care Program for veterans, their families, and VA staff.",2015-09-23,2016-01-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Stuart,Pimsler,"Stuart Pimsler Dance and Theater","528 Hennepin Ave S Ste 707",Minneapolis,MN,55403,"(763) 521-7738 ",spdanth@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-669,"Denise Prosek: Artistic, administration; Laura Sorensen: Artistic, administration, organizational; Mathew Janczewski: Artistic, organizational development, administration; Adriana Rimpel: Artistic, administration; Chris Garza: Artistic, administration, audience development; Natalie Madgy: Administration, education, artistic; Caitlin Marlotte: Administration, fundraising, artistic; Jane Heer: Artistic, administration; Elysia Michaelsen: Artistic, education.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 32607,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3"," ACHF Cultural Heritage","We expect 150 people will attend this art experience. 30% of the audience member will be Latinos.

We were able to works with 5 new artist and designers that we hope to collaborate in the future. We are excited to inform you that we have achieved all three goals successfully. The presentation of The Women of Cuidad Juarez showcased the realities of life in the southern border and brought to light the human rights abuse against women that has been going on and continues till this very day. It reflected the plight of young Mexican women that are being murdered and enslaved by criminal elements that see these women as a commodity to be exploited. We opted to go with the production of La Familia for our one-act series also brought about the historical challenges of “Chicanismo” as well as issues affecting our community today, like LGBTQ rights and homelessness in the Latino community. The Women of Cuidad Juarez was bilingual thus allowing Spanish speakers as well as non-Spanish speakers to experience the play. We also translated all the plays and provided open caption in English for the hearing impaired and the non-Spanish speakers. These plays also provided educational experience and the post-play discussion also provide unique and historical contexts to our audiences. The Marketing of The Women of Cuidad Juarez presented a few on foreseen challenges. Since this was a presentation, the lead artists needed to approve the marketing materials and this in turn slowed down our marketing efforts. Once we streamline the process, we were able to move much quicker. We will need to clarify the need for prompt marketing material feedback response from artists we present in the future. In addition, our timing for La Familia production coincided with a local festival that competed with us for the same audience, which affected our attendance. Even though we are at the mercy of the availability of venues, we need to do a better job on researching competing events. In the future we need to take that into account. In our non-scientific poll we calculated that more than 50% of our audiences were Latinos. We had larger than expected Latino attendance the first night for The Women of Cuidad Juarez. Several groups from Centro, a social service organization serving the Latino community, brought a very diverse group of women from a number of countries like Mexico and from Central and South America. We were surprised by the fact that a number of community members had heard of the show through community channels such as planning meetings for other events throughout the cities. During the weeks leading to each production, we were able to hone our marketing message to precise segments of the Latino community through a more tailor social media marketing approach. This allowed for a more personal approach. Our effort to become more accessible to Spanish speaking audiences for the most part was successful. We had some challenges at first with our marketing efforts with the presentation of The Women of Cuidad Juarez. Feedback from the artist took too long since they were touring at the time. We feel that once we were on track with our marketing materials, we were able to reach out to many Spanish-speaking audiences, but we were not able to achieve the attendance numbers we were expecting. We are hoping to connect with more language schools and classes in the future.

We will constantly evaluate with video and audio self-evaluation, and attendance data.","Over 1,000 people attended the concerts listed in this proposal. This resulted in well over our projected ticket sale income line from our two ticketed concert programs and shows a large reach for our free concerts. Our artistic goals for this project were 1) To shatter the idea that a chamber music ensemble can, and should, only play “classical” music, thus keeping performances of live instrumental music relevant through programming classical, jazz, and pop music that appeals and connects to diverse audiences. 2) To develop our artistry and proficiency of these diverse musical styles. 3) To educate children of all ages - newborns and up - about music through engagement, entertainment, and interaction. 4) To keep chamber music alive as a performance genre, and help it thrive by bringing in new, younger audiences who become educated about music through our spoken commentary from stage. Through the production and presentation of the concerts described in our proposal we were able to meet the above goals. Specific examples of how we met the goals are: At all of our concerts we performed a mix of music and genres (goal 1), for example at our “Christmas” we performed selections from Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker suite (classical music) alongside an arrangement of music from the Disney movie “Frozen” (pop music). We deliberately don’t separate music by genre but program tunes from widely different styles and time periods in succession to show that all music can be fun and accessible - not just modern pop music. To prepare for the concerts we devoted a maximum of 10 hours of rehearsal time each week leading up to the concerts, ensuring our artists were prepared for the artistic challenges of presenting four completely different concert programs (goal 2). Our “Hands on Brass” program at the Science Museum attracted around 250 people from babies to seniors who heard our music and learned about the basics of sounds from our spoken commentary and visual aids (goal 3 and 4). Overall we were very happy with these concerts. Our season as a whole exceeded our audience goals and nearly doubled our ticket sale revenue over our 2014-2015 Twin Cities Season. We will continue to present our “Christmas on Copper Street” concert many times each season, as that program has become very popular. Artistically we feel like that concert is solid, and we will only make small changes to the repertoire. In addition, our “Grammy” concert program was very well received by both our artists and audiences and we’re planning to bring a similar program back on our Twin Cities Concert Series in the next 5 years. There aren’t any major changes we would make. We are presenting our 2016-2017 Twin Cities Series this season (outside of Metropolitan Regional Arts Council’s grant programs) and will carry out this season in a similar way. We have added more “Christmas” concerts in new communities around the metro to meet demand and are presenting “Hands on Brass” and “Inside the Brass Quintet” (formerly called “Open House”) together as our “Free Family Series.” We’re also devoting more resources this season to promoting our series to hopefully continue the audience growth we experience last season. The community served with this proposal looked like the community we described. We attracted the target communities we identified in our proposal - for example we had several large groups of senior citizens from local assisted living facilities who bussed to our “Christmas” matinee concert. We didn’t conduct in-depth surveys to determine the ages and income level of our attendees, but our staff and volunteers reported that our audiences were similar to past audiences, only larger. This season we are expanding our marketing reach to more print and radio ads to continue to grow our audience. While these ads aren’t intended specifically to diversify our audience, we expect that will be a welcome side-effect of audience growth. We were able to accommodate all requests for accessibility. All of our venues are ADA compliant, so making accommodations for our guests with disabilities was relatively easy. Examples of accommodations made were: We staffed extra volunteers for our “Christmas” matinee shows at all entrances to the venue and at the elevator lift to be sure that all patrons could easily find their way and operate the elevator lift. We reserved sections of seating at our “Christmas” and “Grammy” concerts for patrons with wheelchairs and their families. Our two free concerts, “Hands on Brass” and “Open House” addressed economic barriers or child-care concerns people may have had when considering attending our other shows. Both shows were open to families with children of all ages and were offered free of admission.",,8000,"Other, local or private",18000,,"William Mathis, Martin Hodel, Justin Windschitl, Tim Bradley",0.00,"The Copper Street Brass Quintet AKA Copper Street Brass","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to support four unique concert programs as a portion of the 2015-2016 Twin Cities Concert Series.

The number of attendees marks the highest recorded attendance in company history, affecting more audiences and artists than ever before. We were able to pay our artists more than double the average non-equity contact salary in the Twin Cities. Our artistic goals for this project were met. We set out to produce high-quality theatre at an affordable and accessible way, and we did just that. With six glowing reviews, packed houses, and many deeply moved audience members, Theatre Coup d’Etat’s production of Equus was an artistic success. Press comments include: ""...one of the best shows of the year..."" -City Pages. ""Enthralling."" - Lavender Magazine. ""A glorious night of theatre."" - l'etoile. ""Bold productions like Equus help renew that faith (in theatre) in ways few other things can."" - Matthew Everett. ""From the first chant to the final blackout, every beat of Equus pulses with a raw, prickling intensity."" - The Minneapolite. ""...thought-provoking, disturbing, and engrossing..."" - Cherry and Spoon. Our pay-what-you-can opening weekend was a success with three of the four days filled to capacity. Combined with our marketing efforts, the following weekends saw a boost in our audiences, making it the most attended production in Coup d’Etat history with nearly 500 total attendees. We were able to cross-promote with multiple theatre companies within the cities to help bring audiences to out prospective productions, creating a true communal experience. If were able to repeat a similar project, we would increase our estimates on set materials. We were able to reach our intended community in both numbers and diversity. Our affected artist and adult audience reach was met, and our surveys show that we continue to grow our younger audience base with 67% of our attendees under 35. Our outreach efforts resulted in a diverse community. Our surveys indicate that over 27% of our audience identified as a person of color, and 38% declared themselves members of the LGBTQ community. 54% identified as female, 49% male, and 2% undeclared.

Qualitative: Students improved and some parents were emotionally moved by just how good the students sounded performing on their own. 45 students attended. We had a goal of 48 and though we didn't reach that goal we actually offered more sessions which featured smaller groups of 5 or 6 each (instead of 8 which is full capacity). More guest faculty taught which exposed the students to different approaches to jazz. We committed to having all our concerts at Icehouse as the Dakota Jazz Club became to hard to schedule. The change was a good thing as different from the Dakota Icehouse offered a full menu and promoted the concerts in its publicity, something the Dakota never did. Also this summer we spaced out the workshops to have sessions in June, July, and August. This worked well and schedule allowing, we will replicate a similar offering for 2017. What we would do differently would be to begin recruiting key instrumentalists, particularly bassists, early in the Spring. For some ensembles there was no student bassist and so a guest faculty had to function in that role. It was good in that the students had a second teacher in the room but having a student bassist would be preferable. We did reach our intended community of students interested in learning more about jazz improvisation. Our outreach efforts did involve more students of color and girls- to subgroups we are most interested in helping discover jazz. Recruitment for these group was most effective when instead of classroom visits we inquired from our jazz peers if they knew of an up and coming young player who would be interested in the workshop.

The audience was strongly moved to respond to the production and the ideas behind it through post-show discussions, lobby conversations with company members, and written correspondence. We will evaluate the outcomes using audience count, box office receipts, and post-performance feedback (oral and written, including individual and press).","1375 people attended The Christians, earning $19,376 in individual ticket sales. The audience was strongly moved to respond to the production and the ideas behind it through post-show discussions totaling 100 people, nightly lobby conversations with company members, written correspondence in emails and lobby post-it displays, and more press reviews than any previous show. Did you achieve your artistic goals? We realize that these reports are usually quite effusive and positive but truly, this was one of our strongest productions ever. At a rudimentary level, we did the project as outlined: we presented all performances when and how we said we’d present them. Easy enough. For our goal to “Create a compelling, visually stunning theatrical work that is fun to watch and perform,” we can report success. Audiences responded passionately, some moved to tears, many moved to discussion, and more than I can count sought us out after the show to share their responses. Responses like: “I feel like all good theater is like church, right, it sort of gets you in the head and the guts at the same time and it connects you to the thread of spirit/god/energy that runs through the whole universe…. Congratulations and thanks for that amazing production.” –Audience member. Similarly, the press for this show was stunningly positive and effusive, more so than any other show we can remember. “Oh, Lord, does this play ever make me uncomfortable. I mean that in a good way.” –Eric Ringham, MPR News. Our next goal was to “Explore the play’s themes by focusing on relatable characters in compelling situations.” Since the script itself laid this all out beautifully with multidimensional and clearly written characters, this was an easy goal to meet. And we had great performers on staff to execute it beautifully. To meet our third goal to “Provoke thought and discussion, and provide our community with opportunities for discussion” we utilized the oft-repeated line within the script, “I have a powerful urge to communicate, but I find the distance between us insurmountable,” the cast and crew had a rallying cry to foster conversation with the audience. Furthering the conversation, a neatly even 100 audience members stayed for three energetic, considerate, and involved post-show discussions. For those who wanted to share their thoughts in a non-public way, we posed questions on posters in the lobby and audience members chimed in via Post-it note. What worked? What didn’t work? What were the strengths/challenges of your artistic process? The script required the use of wired microphones for all the actors, justified to the audience by the in-church scenes, but more curious when the story moved to a private office and a bedroom. We integrated them into rehearsal early so we avoid tangling cords, but also to make sure the actors would be constantly aware of the limits of gesturing with one hand, and the way the amplification would impact their performance. One quirk of casting was finding out that all of the actors had a very strong connection to faith, and were brought their experiences and history to bear in the rehearsal room. What, if anything, would you do differently? We would have tried sooner to engage a choir. Our eventual strategy was a nail-biter and probably took a month or two off the director’s life expectancy. Did you successfully reach your intended community (i.e. audience, participants, artists, etc.)? If not, why? Oh absolutely- we served all the artists mentioned, and based on their responses, this was an incredibly special show to them. None of these actors worked with Walking Shadow before, and only one of them worked with the director before (with DalekoArts of New Prague). All of our actors had a very strong connection to something spiritual in their personal history, and this show resonated with them in a very strong way, and we think it only lent strength to their performances. Our lead actor, playing Pastor Paul, was new to town and found this to be a tremendous introduction to Twin Cities stages. Several reviews (and more audience members than we can count) responded with a stunned, “Where did HE come from?!” Both of the actresses in the show were surprised to be called in to audition, considering themselves to be comic and character actresses, suddenly asked to do some deeply soul-searching drama (at which they excelled). And both were thrilled and honored (their words, not mine) to be allowed to stretch their own limits in a different kind of role. Audience-wise, we had 1375 attendees, almost double our budgeted attendance. This show was a tremendous success for us. Did your outreach efforts result in community diversity? If not, what would you do differently in the future? We did an audience survey (with an unheard-of 62% response rate) and based on the demographics we regularly measure, this audience was as diverse as ours usually are in terms of gender identity, sexual orientation, age, income, and disability. We remain not particularly diverse in audience’s race/ethnicity. One of the five actors was an artist of color, as were 2 of 9 choir members. We know that casting more artists of color is critical to reflect our community, and increase the diversity in our audience. In what ways did you meet your goals for making your project open and accessible to all who might wish to participate? We did everything we spelled out in our application, much of it in thanks to Mixed Blood’s recent efforts to make their space more accessible. We did two performances of ASL interpretation (one without ASL patrons, another with 2), and two of AD interpretation (6 total). One of the AD performances encountered significant problems with the borrowed equipment. After the performance one user said, “The AD didn’t work but the play hit home nonetheless. I want to make a donation.” Lucky for us, the power of this show was more auditory than visual! Incredibly close to our estimate of 230 tickets, we gave away 223 comp tickets. 218 people enjoyed major discounts (student, military, pay what you can) – about the number we estimated, but a smaller percentage of the audience because of the increased number of people who paid full price.",,19207,"Other, local or private",29207,,"Michael Borchert, John Heimbuch, David Pisa, Amy Rummenie: Charleen Zimmer, James Matheson, Ben Thietje, Brent LaSalle, Angela Sylvester, Amanda White Thietje, Kit Shelton, Mary Mullen",0.00,"Walking Shadow Theatre Company","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding to produce The Christians, a new play by Lucas Hnath.

Out of 32 families, 16 surveys were completed. One question asked was to rate satisfaction 1 to 5 with Summer Youth Theatre. 15 chose 5 (extremely satisfied), and 1 chose 4 (satisfied.) We received praise and practical suggestions. We planned on 40 youth involved in this year’s show, we ended up with 39. We estimated an audience of 500 and our actual audience was 780! We achieved all 4 articulated goals, and we consider this year’s show a success. We provided a place for youth to explore their creativity and learn about theatre. 39 youth were involved. Our original script allowed students to be creative and add their own touches. Cast members had a blast diving into their unique character, building background stories, and turning a rough draft into a polished show. One obvious strength in this year’s program was the opportunity for our participants to develop leadership, self-esteem, discipline, and cooperation in working together to produce a show in 6 weeks. This year’s cast was especially young, and it encouraged a group of eighth graders to really step up into that leadership role when our leaders are traditionally closer to tenth grade. This group served as a model to others for teamwork and positive attitude despite a large age difference. Another strength of this year’s show was the script’s theme. Each year we strive for a theme or moral that encourages global consciousness and/or critical thinking. This year’s script was certainly educational and timely. Kids for President taught our cast members about the electoral process and challenged the audience to consider the desired qualities in leader of this country. One young mother told me that after seeing the show, her conversation in a fifteen minute car ride with her 5-year-old went from definition of a good and bad leader to exploring different government systems! We certainly met our goal of challenging audience members to reflect. One challenge this year to the artistic process was changes in the personal lives of directors. For the past five years, Hannah and Jake (script authors and directors), Lauren (music composer and director), and Kyle (tech director) have worked very well together and developed an easy rhythm. This summer all had big changes such a new baby, graduate school classes during rehearsal, and a new job. This demanded some creativity at rehearsal bringing in past participants to help with rehearsals. Additionally, our student directors had to be absent for a couple weeks here and there. The inconsistency of adults at rehearsal created a challenge in developing a routine-based environment for young learners. If a similar situation occurred in future years, we would work hard to have at least two or three adults who can be at rehearsal every day rather than just one consistent adult. We feel that we served the diversity of our community well. The program is designed to be open and accessible to all who want to participate. The registration information clearly states that all youth who completed grades 3 through 12, had an equal opportunity to be involved in the production. All households in the district receive the registration information in the Summer Community Education brochure. Those who were involved in the administrative, artistic, and volunteer groups who worked on the project represented the diversity of our community. We believe the community is always affected for the better by Summer Theatre performances. We see positive reactions from the actors, their families, and their friends. We also hear testimonials from current and past participants that Summer Theatre is or was one of the best experiences. We have seen many Summer Youth Theatre participants continue their theatrical involvement in the high school plays, often landing large roles because of their abilities and experience. Students testify that they not only grew theatrically, but also personally. Strong friendships are formed in Summer Youth Theatre, and it is the goal of the directors to be mentors in all aspects of life. The majority of the participants are involved in their early teens. It is such a crucial time in developing their morals and ethics. Summer Youth Theatre fosters a positive, safe environment in which students are able to grow. Summer Youth Theatre provides an opportunity for individuals to shine on stage. Every student is given at least two lines, and everyone participates in several songs with choreography. Participants are encouraged to stay after rehearsal and contribute to set work and finding/creating costumes. Students are given the opportunity to be involved in whichever way they wish, resulting in learned teamwork skills, technical skills, and self-esteem. They then carry those skills out into the community in a variety of ways: involvement in their church, 4-H, jobs, sports, teams, and volunteerism. Because our program design is flexible and inclusive, we are able to readily accommodate participants with special needs. Participants can indicate special needs on the registration form. An American with Disabilities Act statement is printed in the Community Education brochure. A number of participants this year were diagnosed with anxiety. With the help of directors communicating with parents, they were able to participate without barriers. Students do not need to audition to be in the show. Registration alone guarantees them a spot on stage – auditions simply dictate which part they get. This makes theatre accessible to students who may be shy initially and allows them to grow in confidence. We were able to accommodate several limited-mobility persons at our performances by use of our easily accessible, state-of-the-art performance space. Many people utilized the elevator and reserved handicapped seating.",,5775,"Other, local or private",15775,,"Rachel Bender, Laurie Heid, Rhonda Maas, Joyce Peterson, Lori Seiling, Sara Soley, Lynn Younglove",0.00,"Watertown-Mayer Community Education","K-12 Education","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for a seven-week Youth Summer Theater program featuring an original script and musical score.

Also, the majority of students say the Guild is a supportive resource for anyone interested in the arts of weaving, spinning, and dyeing. The participation numbers will be tracked, and student surveys and instructor feedback will be distributed and collected.","Weavers Guild of Minnesota proposed in our application that 40-50 classes would be offered. We far exceeded this, offering 90 classes, 83% of which were held; this was more classes than in any class series. There were 657 registrations total with 495 unique students. 100% of students would take another class from their instructor, and 99% told us the class met their expectation. The Weavers Guild of Minnesota has been preserving and advancing the arts of weaving, spinning, and dyeing for 76 years; our Winter/Spring 2016 Class Series continued this tradition. Through these classes, Weavers Guild of Minnesota accomplished the four goals detailed in our application. Goal 1: Celebrate and respect all individuals from beginners to seasoned artists and craftspersons. We offered many classes for beginners; all had at least five students in the class and most were completely full with ten students. Specifically, there were six floor loom weaving, six portable weaving, three spinning, three dyeing, and twenty-five one-day experience classes. This was a notable increase over the previous year. Weavers Guild of Minnesota also supported our advanced artists. Many of our intermediate and advanced weavers took more than one class. While most repeat students took two or three courses, two students took seven classes. These two students were able to significantly develop as artists because of this intensive study. Goal 2: Promote innovative, art-based uses of fiber. Innovation is vital to ensure these arts remain relevant and vibrant. Weavers Guild of Minnesota offered several classes specifically to address innovative uses of fiber, two examples are: Spin a Picture in which students used paintings or photographs to inspire color palette and spinning strategies to create unique art yarn that captured a moment in time, and Mixed Media and Sustainability, in which students explored using found materials and generating minimal waste during the weaving process. Goal 3: Provide a rich, positive environment that inspires lifelong learning in a non-competitive environment, nurturing a multi-generational community. We had two new instructors during the Winter/Spring Class Series, both of whom are under 30 years old. We also had four advanced students start as classroom assistants to gain teaching experience. Additionally, our particularly advanced courses were attended by several students who had not taken classes at the Weavers Guild for over five years. These individuals are active members and study group participants, and by taking advanced courses in Winter/Spring, they were able to continue developing their artistic skills. Goal 4: Provide opportunities for individuals to learn from teaching artists about the creative process and artistic expression. All Weavers Guild of Minnesota classes present weaving, spinning, and dyeing as artistic disciplines. However, as with many mediums, foundational classes focus more on technical knowledge. Design and creative process become a greater focus in intermediate and advanced courses. One third of our classes offered in Winter/Spring 2016 provided the opportunity to explore such topics with experienced teaching artists. For program evaluation, we asked if students had broadened their artistic skills in these classes and if Weavers Guild of Minnesota was a supportive resource, but only about 25% of students provided answers to these questions. We plan to revise our survey to obtain the information we need. Members of the Weavers Guild of Minnesota community share a passion for weaving, spinning, and/or dyeing. Weavers Guild of Minnesota is the main resource for community members located in the Twin Cities and wider metropolitan area, and also for those from other Minnesota communities that do not have a local weaving, spinning, or dyeing resource. We know that our Winter/Spring 2016 Class Series was particularly successful because a dramatic participation increase was observed. There were 657 class registrations, which was double that in the same period in 2015. Of these registrations, 47% were Weavers Guild of Minnesota members and 53% were non-members. Regarding non-member students specifically, we had triple the registrations as compared to the same period in 2015. We attribute this increase to our successful marketing and outreach efforts. By demonstrating at diverse venues such as Twin Cities Pride, Mini Maker Faire, and the Minnesota State Fair, as well as an increased social media presence, more potential students were reached. While there were 657 class registrations, there were only 495 unique students because many took more than one class. This, paired with qualitative stories, clearly show that our members are taking multiple classes and advancing through the curriculum. While we are successfully broadening our community through increased non-member registrations, we are still supporting our core membership of artists and craftpersons. Our core membership has historically been at least 50% individuals who are 55 and older, and female. We are proud to provide a safe and creative space for these individuals, especially since this demographic remains largely under-served by arts education organizations. We also value welcoming new members to our community. Two years ago, we had only five members under 30. Now, we have nearly sixty total, and some individuals in this group are on the Board of Directors. It is far more difficult to measure our success in creating classes to attract more individuals of diverse gender identification, race and cultural backgrounds. We do not currently collect data on these identifiers, but in the future, we hope to implement a way to gather and analyze this information in a respectful and meaningful way. Finally, Weavers Guild of Minnesota continues to strive to offer a rich array of classes for all budgets. Our on-site classes range in cost from $17 to $350, but through our partnerships with Dakota County Library Adults Programming, Weavers Guild of Minnesota is able to offer free classes at several locations. The Education Committee and Board of Directors are committed to developing a scholarship program in the near future to further address any economic obstacles to participation.",,50710,"Other, local or private",60710,,"Peter Withoff, Caprice Vanderkolk, Cynthia Scott, Karen Hovermale, Robbie LaFleur, Robyn Husebye, Gayle Groebner, Debbie Heilig, Susan Larson-Fleming, Carol Harrington, Jan Hayman",0.00,"Weavers Guild of Minnesota","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the Winter/Spring 2016 Class Series, featuring 18 weeks of educational programming through which participants engage in beginning to advanced-level arts activities that focus on the arts of weaving, spinning, and dyeing.",2015-10-01,2016-05-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Becky,Franklin,"Weavers Guild of Minnesota","3000 University Ave SE Ste 110",Minneapolis,MN,55414,"(612) 436-0463 ",bfranklin@weaversguildmn.org,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/arts-activities-support-677,"Bethany Hansen: Administration, youth programming, artistic; Mary Smith: Organizational development, volunteerism, education; Daniel Peltzman: Administration, organizational development; Bill Venne: Fundraising; Sarah Jordet: Organizational development, administration, artistic; Kate Roarty: Audience development, administration, volunteerism; Craig Harris: Organizational development, administration, artistic; Mohamed Samatar: Artistic, community service, fundraising; Rosemary Nevils: Artistic, Community Education, fundraising.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music Teacher and Performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair of El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and Performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 32615,"Arts Activities Support",2016,10000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","We hope to reach an audience of over 400 through the run of the production.

We will evaluate our outcomes through an audience count both walk-ups and online ticket reservations. We will also do an audience survey to determine the makeup of our audience and their interest in the work they have seen.","This production was one of the most well-received in our company's decade in existence. A larger number of people saw this show than any other in our history: 1,018. And most importantly for us: Carson Kreitzer was able to see her play realized in the way she had always intended, for the Twin Cities community where the play was developed before going on to national productions. Workhaus Collective is tremendously proud of the work we did on LASSO OF TRUTH. Artistic goals were achieved for a very complicated show, working with a limited budget but apparently unlimited enthusiasm and teamwork. The strengths of the piece were its challenging form, which included moments of extremely non-traditional storytelling (including the use of drawn comic-panels telling a slightly different story than the one being told by the actors onstage, expanding the narrative and calling into question the truth of memory, and sections that were performed in darkness) and moments that dealt frankly with unusual sexualities. The strengths of the artistic process definitely included assembling the team of amazing actors and designers, beginning with director Leah Cooper, and nurturing and giving space to this astounding collection of talent. Ms. Cooper ran a thrilling, warm, and respectful process. Workhaus was able to attract a high level of acting talent, all people who had worked with Carson Kreitzer in the past, and were excited by the piece. Several accepted lower fees than their usual in order to work with us. The design team was similarly accomplished, and excited by the challenges inherent in the piece. These challenges, unfortunately, often fell upon the backs of the fantastic projection and sound designers, who had to wrestle an astonishingly large number of cues into Qlab. In the course of running the piece, the challenge fell upon the shoulders of our wonderful, young stage manager, who handled an intensely dense book with aplomb, calling cues pretty much non-stop for the whole show. The resulting theatrical event was absolutely thrilling, and one of our most successful productions in the history of the company. In future, we would take steps to ensure that there is sufficient additional tech time built into the schedule for a show of this complexity. The designers put in many hours at night after regular tech hours. We are eminently grateful to them, and everyone was thrilled with the final product. But in future, we would make sure they have time to get their best work done, and also get enough sleep! In our proposal, we hoped to reach an audience of at least 400. We are thrilled to report that actual audience attendance was a record-breaking 1,018. We absolutely reached new communities for Workhaus, especially the Comic/Geek community, and the bondage/alternative sexuality communities. We also continued to bring in new audience through outreach to universities, this time making special efforts to reach feminist communities within the universities, often through personal connections with feminist professors. This was very successful, pointing to a real need for more plays that put women at the center of the narrative. Working with Walking Shadow Theatre Company on this show was a wonderful chance to have our companies ""cross-pollinate."" Because of previous work they have done, Walking Shadow had access to those who would be particularly excited for a comic-book inspired play, and also members of the polyamory community, who were eager to see their lives reflected onstage in a non-sensationalistic, respectful manner. We got wonderful feedback from members of these communities. Walking Shadow also helped us reach out to the deaf community, even finding us an interpreter who has connections to the deaf LGBT/kink community. Her feedback on the process was invaluable! For the history of our company, we have always had pay-what-you-wish tickets available. This became a challenge for this show, because we were selling out so many shows ahead of time! But we wanted to insure that we would always have pay-what-you-wish seating available, so we added a front row of benches, which we held back from pre-sale, and let our audiences know that we would always have a certain number of pay-what-you-wish tickets available for every show, even if it appeared to be sold out online. This is certainly a show that appealed to younger audiences, and college students; making sure we had pay-what-you-wish tickets available definitely helped bring these audiences in.",,18550,"Other, local or private",28550,,"Jeremy B Cohen, Polly K Carl, Jonathan J Wolfe, Daniella Topol, Christopher Smith, Keri Kellerman",0.00,"Workhaus Playwrights Collective AKA Workhaus Collective","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the area premiere of Lasso of Truth, by award winning playwright Carson Kreitzer.

Young Artists Initiative solicits quantitative and qualitative feedback from participants rating their Young Artists Initiative experience, the learning involved, and the family's experience when participating. Data is collected from and about audiences to rate effectiveness of publicity and outreach.","45% of the young actors were new to Young Artists Initiative. This was very close to our target goal of 50%, a remarkable achievement due to the audition-based nature of the experience. We did receive 5% critical feedback for how we can improve, particularly in the area of actor's musical development. We also increased our audiences by 50%, well above the target goal of 15%. Our primary artistic goal is to give young performers an artistic learning opportunity that goes beyond simply putting together a performance. We achieved this with an amazing artistic team that really put young people at the fore of the work. Comments from young people and families alike spoke to the community building that occurred during the process and the sense of honoring the value of the kids they experienced. Each actor played at least two or three roles in the production, and as such had multiple costumes. This influenced the overall size of the cast, due to budget restrictions. Interestingly, we also had a number of young people who dropped from the production after being offered roles. This is always a challenge with an audition-based show, as some actors are only wanting specific parts. One particular story is in regards to the girl who played Ariel in the production. She was from Mankato, Minnesota, and her mother is a teacher. She expressed a little skepticism that Young Artists Initiative could deliver on the level of quality as such a small organization, especially after attending our parent meeting at the beginning of the rehearsal process. Checking in with her over the course of the production, I was able to learn that she was incredibly impressed and proud to be a part of the organization. Her husband volunteered countless hours of driving and set-building time. The artistic team really delivered an amazing final production. The performance's colors in lights, sound, and the scale of the set were unprecedented for a Young Artists Initiative show. This was the first time we were able to realize a false proscenium. As mentioned before, actors had multiple costume changes, and audiences continually complimented on them after performances. The final goal was to deliver an outstanding artistic experience for our the audience, and the record-setting attendance we had spoke to much of the word-of-mouth ""advertising"" that occurred from audience members who came to see these young people perform. Many audience members came to multiple performances because they enjoyed it so much. One even commented that they enjoyed the production even more than when they had seen a professional production performed in town in 2015. Our artistic team was really the key to this experience, and it was a little tight with staffing, due to the inability early on to find a suitable director. We have entertained the idea of beginning our season staffing process even earlier, to ensure we have access to the best available adult talent to work with our young people. It is my hope that we can work with each of these artists again in the future, and even invite some leadership opportunities with the organization. We are also building our capacity for volunteers, and trying to recruit from some of the new families that joined us on this production. Our first goal was to have 50% of our young artists new to Young Artists Initiative programming and describe personal growth. We had 10 of 22 participants new to the program (45%), so we almost reached that goal. We were surprised by the lack of turnout for male performers. We had a wide geographic range of participants as well, with the longest distance being an actor from the Mankato area. We were glad to have additional actors of color — and in fact all three were new to the organization. This is still an area of growth for us, and we are looking at deliberate programming efforts to push into school within one mile of our rehearsal space. Actors' feedback on their evaluations during this project were not as insightful as we have seen in the past. This could be due to the younger demographic that participated. Families' evaluations were also supportive, but offered less specific detail. One piece families spoke to specifically was a dislike of our attempt to better meet evening family needs by adjusting rehearsals; they preferred a consistent time each day of the week. As for our audiences, we exceeded our goals in this area. We grew our audience by 50% over last year. We believe it is due to the popularity of THE LITTLE MERMAID as a story. Even as a theater organization that provides programming for young actors, we were surprised by the number of small children who were in attendance, given that the show was a full two hours and twenty minutes long. All parents described the show as completely engaging for these young people. We also felt like our audience demographics in this production better reflected our community as a whole. We would still like to better reach audience members who utilize our ASL interpretation, as turnout was very low. Audience surveys were small in turnout, but highlights included positive feedback on the costume design in particular. One additional data point to note was that 50% of our adult artistic team members were new to the organization. The opportunities that Young Artists Initiative provides emerging artists who are just beginning their careers in the Twin Cities is something we are proud of. The fact that we also bring back artists year after year who are interested in working with our organization again also speaks to the quality experience they have. Young Artists Initiative always conducts an all-staff debrief and shares audience and actor/family feedback with the team for their personal development and growth as well. This is also an opportunity for us to hear from our artists about how we can improve.",,9550,"Other, local or private",19550,,"Barb Deming, David Holewinski, Raymond Krause, Benjamin Lacina, James McCormick, Tim Moy, Laurie Mucciacciaro",0.00,"Young Artists Initiative","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Arts Activities Support",,"Funding for the 2016 Winter Theater Experience, an eight-week auditioned based theater program for youth that culminates in eight public performances of The Little Mermaid.

A short survey will be included in the Community Concert program asking How did you hear about our Community Concert?","Most outstanding was the artistic growth of the participants where 100% of those surveyed indicated a positive and creative environment when modern dance was experienced and performed for the first time. Additional information from the survey indicated that 93% of the dancers from the Modern Dance Project would like to participate in this project again. Through the course of the project, the following Artistic Goals were achieved: The Teaching Artists started each class with modern based warm-ups. Not only were the participants exposed to modern technique, but basic ballet terminology and technique were also introduced. Trust and support of individual movement, were addressed during the early weeks of the project. Once boundaries were established, students were exposed to and actively participated in improvised movement. The transition of the dancers was exemplary and profound! As choreography progressed, a variety of music was introduced to the dancers. The selected music for one of the dances was chosen in collaboration with the participants. Through this process, participants learned the relationship between movement and music. Participants also had an opportunity to vocalize in one of the dances. The performance level of the participants at the Modern Dance Project Concert exceeded all expectation of comprehension. The performers were professional and encompassing. The most outstanding event that took place during the project was the transformation of the participants and the success they experienced. Most of the students all faced a variety of learning barriers. They learned that whatever they brought to the dance studio on any given day, they could leave it at the door and focus just on dance. The best feedback came from Aunestie who commented, ""this is the first time my family is going to see me do something right."" The biggest challenge that we faced was that of losing one of our teaching artists who relocated to New York after this grant was submitted. A large amount of effort was dedicated to finding a replacement who possessed the same skills, willingness, and talent to make this project successful. We found all of these qualities in Alejandra Iannone who was an asset to the Modern Dance Project. We experienced two more challenges that were not foreseen. One was that of performance space for the Modern Dance Project Concert. We had originally booked the Mraz Performing Arts Center at Burnsville High School. It is a wonderful performance space that seats 505 people. At the end of January, after the project had already started, we were ""bumped"" from the facility to high school programming. This situation created a huge challenge for us as there was no other performance venue, close to the same size, with the needed technical capability for the performance. Accessibility was also a challenge. We are grateful that Burnsville Community Education was able to financially assist us with the cost and the performance was held at the Ames Performing Arts Center. In spite of the theater seating over a thousand people, and we had just over 300 in attendance, the theater was a delight for all involved. In spite of all our recruitment efforts, we did not meet the number of participants we had hoped to reach. Recruitment at both Nicollet and Metcalf Junior High Schools yielded over seventy five interested students. Follow up emails were then sent to those students to remind them to register. Of that number, twenty two were males. During the week prior to start of the Modern Project, only twenty four females had signed up to participate, even with concerted efforts to include young men in the project. On the first day of the Project (January 11, 2016) twenty dancers attended. We did try to recruit additional students but the feedback we received was that their after school activities were already in place. In the end, 16 dancers participated in the Modern Dance Project Concert. This was a disappointing number in that Community Education was confident that they could recruit at least 25-30 participants. Discussions have taken place to research how we might better reach out to those interested in the Project. The Community Education leadership is very supportive of the project is pleased with the outcome. They are not concerned about the lower than expected turnout of participants. Christian Kibler (Community Education liaison for the district) commented, ""No matter what, Youth Dance Ensemble has set up this program as an assurance for at risk students to have success"" The Project's population was diverse in terms of ethnicity. Brian Evans (Teaching Artist) is bi-racial, Alejandra Iannone is Venezuelan. The ethnic breakdown of the participants was 83% black, 8% Latino, 7% bi-racial and 2% Caucasian. There was also diversity in age with a range of 11 (our youngest participant) to 57 (our oldest Artistic Support). We exceeded our intended audiences for the Modern Dance Project Concert as projected in the grant.

Box office records will be kept by the Cowles, and workshop/fiesta attendance records kept by Zorongo. Informal interviews will also be conducted with all artists following the performances and Artistic Director, Susana di Palma, together with the Zorongo Board of Directors, will complete a final review and evaluation of the entire season.","95% of audiences (937 attendees) expressed interest in attending another Zorongo event in the future; many new names were added to our mailing list. The number of students attending (over 450) has made us re-consider the number of matinee performances offered and how to reach even more schools that might benefit by seeing our work. Artistic goals for LORCA’S WOMEN were to: 1) engage Twin Cities’ audiences with consummate flamenco dance and music and; 2) provide local dancers and musicians with the opportunity to work closely with artists who have reached the apex of skill and artistry in flamenco voice, guitar, dance, and choreography. “Throughout, di Palma drives the connections between stories… It is her shouts of “Silencio” at the beginning and end of the show that draw our attention, but also captivating is her lifelong commitment to finding new ways to showcase flamenco as a mesmerizing form of creative expression.” –Caroline Palmer, Minneapolis Star Tribune. Zorongo’s much-anticipated production of LORCA’s WOMEN performed at the Cowles Center in April 2016 was enthusiastically received and regarded as one of Susana di Palma’s “strongest to date.” The quote above is indicative of the response by audiences who reacted spontaneously—viscerally and loudly—to the passionate and “riveting” movement on stage. Our 5 guest artists included dancer Omayra Amaya, guitarists Jose Valle “Chuscales” and Roberto Castellon, and singers La Conja and Kina Mendez. Local performers included Susana di Palma, AJ Frenzel, Deborah Elias, and Colette Illarde who were joined by Zorongo’s 8 apprentice dancers. New creative challenges were successfully met by Zorongo company dancers as the piece presented multiple soloist opportunities. Zorongo’s apprentices excelled, reaching the next level of artistry and involvement with the company, a few even dancing in lead roles. The participation of our guest artists pushed all Zorongo artists to new heights technically and performatively. The success of Omayra’s involvement continued off stage. Her workshops resulted in record attendance for Zorongo and were strongly supported by the Twin Cities’ flamenco community including support from other companies such as Anda Flamenco. A pleasant surprise to us, Zorongo’s student matinee performance was sold out prior to the opening weekend. However due to time constraints, we were not able to add another student showing. This is something we wish to add next year. We also hope to provide more rehearsal time for the artists and include more musicians in the production. We saw many opportunities for future artistic collaborations. Overall, our biggest strengths for the project included: a fantastic review by the Star Tribune that mentioned all performers in a positive light, record attendance at our guest artist workshops, and a well-attended meaningful talk back event. Artists and audience members were engaged in new ways with the art form. In our proposal, we wrote that success for this project will mean that a deeper understanding of and appreciation for the art of flamenco will be gained by participants, that more interest in attending Zorongo’s activities will develop, and that increased visibility and recognition will occur—these goals were all met. Zorongo was successful in reaching our intended community including the local flamenco artists, students, Spanish language and cultural enthusiasts, and Lorca scholars. Our audiences were diverse as expected in terms of age, gender, and ethnicity. We did experience a greater number of students than originally anticipated—the student matinee was sold out two months prior to the performance. Exploring the idea of expanding our student performance schedule is on the table for next year. The post-performance talk back session was a draw for those interested in learning more about the production, artists, and Lorca. About 70 individuals participated in the discussion led by Susana di Palma and Carleton College professor Silvia Lopez. New partnerships with 3M and Anchor Bank, each sponsoring the performance, provided rich resources for promotion. 3M’s “Newsroom” created a promo video for the performance. The video aired at 3M the week prior to show time and currently has over 30,000 views; it is currently 3M Newsroom's most viewed video. In the future, Zorongo will seek additional corporate partnerships to attract new audiences. Attendance goals for performances and workshops were met and we feel that we were successful in making our project’s accessible to all who wished to participate including through the ADA compliancy of the spaces used, (The Cowles Center and Zorongo Studio), and through admission prices and low workshop fees. The new channels of performance promotion (see above), and methods for promoting workshops also helped us to meet our accessibility and diversity goals.",,40836,"Other, local or private",49200,,"Christine Kozachok, Robin Moede, Vicki Walker, Catherine Higgins Whiteside, Alessandra Chiarelli, Tamara Rogers, Matthew Hoerr, Jill Martinez, Silvia Lopez, Thomas Peden, Maria Jose Martin Orejana, Evelyn Padilla, Trisha Beuhring, Sarah Strauss",0.00,"Zorongo Flamenco, Inc.

This concert will help Ladyslipper Ensemble grow as a group and develop our audience in the metro area, allowing us to reach out to new listeners. In turn, this will give us more acclaim as a chamber music group, thus creating more opportunities for us to expand outside of Saint Paul. Through our ""guest book"" we have seen that our following is growing steadily from one season to the next. Our concerts have filled to capacity in chamber rooms that seat a maximum of 45. The audience supports us by continuing to return to our events and offering us feedback about our programming in post-concert discussions. We measure our success by our returning audience members, who follow our seasons regularly, as well as the growing number of new listeners, reflected in our guest book. Another way we measure our success is through feedback after our concerts and through conversations with the audience. Additionally, we connect to our audience through talking about the pieces on our programs during the concerts. What is particularly unique and exciting about the ""Seasons"" project is that Twin Cities composer, David Evan Thomas will be present and will talk about his commissioned piece and what it entailed to compose a new arrangement of an existing work, especially for Ladyslipper Ensemble's instrumentation. To further build our listenership and connect with the community, we upload sound samples from concert recordings on to the ensemble's webpage, which allows patrons to hear the work that our group does. We often get feedback that is very positive and our listeners are very inquisitive.","The results of this project were and are very positive. 15 people were in attendance, despite a blizzard that day.

Lowertown Blues Festival board and staff will assess results and make recommendations for any future changes.

Post show artist surveys will be sent to participating artists to gather feedback about their experience.","We achieved our artistic goals of engaging, entertaining, and educating our community through this project. A strength AND challenge of our artistic process is having 10 different artists directing 10 different plays - each with different actors. This results in a variety of artistic visions for each play, each unique and engaging for the audiences, and each resulting in different learning experiences for the artists. The challenge in this process is coordinating all the different artists and volunteer actors through the rehearsal process, and ""tech week"" as each production worked through different sound, lighting and other tech needs. The end result was a highly successful festival with performances filled to 91% of capacity. Attendees were engaged, as shown by their response in voting for their favorite play: 791 voted (62%) for a fun show called ""Gram Scams"" which looked at perceptions and misconceptions between generations. Of the playwrights with plays selected for performance, nine were from across the United States from Maine to California, and one was from the Twin Cities metro community of Little Canada. The Festival included comedies and dramas with diverse topics from aging to speed dating to theater ghosts to a murder mystery spoof. We feel this activity was a tremendous success and we would not do anything differently for future festivals. We successfully reached our intended community of audience, volunteer actors and directors. Actors of all ages, abilities, and levels of experience were invited to audition, with a total of 52 actors coming out to try out to be in a play. Actors ranged in age from 17 to 70, with 14 men and 13 women cast in 27 roles. Most of the actors were Caucasian, with two Latino, and one African American. At least one of the artists self-identifies as gay. One of our directors, who is legally blind, was driven to and from the theater with his service dog. Of the 1278 attendees, 84 (7%) attended with a half-price or pay-what-you-can ticket, and 147 (12%) attended free of charge. There was no fee for actors to participate in the Festival. We exceeded our attendance goal of 75% of capacity, with the Festival filled to 91% capacity. The number of actors was 27 (8 fewer than anticipated), a result of plays selected for performance having fewer roles than in past years.

As we experienced last year, the artistic quality of the group has increased. With that, we are able to learn and perform more artistically rewarding music. Due to the location of our first large concert of the season, we experienced a lower than expected attendance. To avoid this issue in future seasons, we are exploring new alternative concert venues within the Linden Hills area. Our concert in April was the highlight of the season. Our performance of Pines of Rome was an amazing experience for audience and orchestra alike. The orchestra was inspired by Eugena Chang's fierce performance of Tchaikovsky's Rococo Variations. We noticed a varied spectrum of audience members at our performances. Unfortunately our first large concert had a much lower attendance than anticipated. We will focus our concert venues closer to and within the Linden Hills neighborhood in the future to avoid the lower turnout. Some of our regular attendees could potentially not attend due to location. Yet again this year, Linden Hills Chamber Orchestra was fortunate enough to gain several new musicians in our strings, woodwinds, and brass sections. Just as our current member base reflects a broad cross-section of individuals, our new players also represent a wide range of ages, races, and backgrounds. We are hoping to continue our diversification of the group with more recruitment done online, in person at concerts, and networking via our current members in the hopes of further cementing our place within the community, as well as making our orchestra even stronger.

Instructors will develop new lesson plans, learn repertoire, new ideas for teaching choreography, stage presence and increased knowledge of the history of dances that can be used in teaching regular classes over the next two years. We will evaluate our outcomes by audience/participant ","Artistic Goals: The project was very successful. Zadoc Fuentes Marin, of Instituto MIZOC of Mexico City, led a robust 8 day week intensive workshop which included choreography for over 30 dances for the various groups, innovative teaching techniques and historical context for all. A full day was dedicated to having each participant create head pieces connected to one of the dances each participant learned. His enthusiasm and energy was 100 percent contagious and the participants were engaged and determined from the first class to the last. The instruction took place in the dance studio at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church as well as a local school gymnasium for the additional open space to make headpieces and to practice the larger group dances. In addition to the daily workshop classes, the visiting artist will work with lead Los Alegres Bailadores dance instructors to develop extended lesson plans for future classes of folkloric material not yet known widely by instructors currently in Minnesota. Challenges: We could have used a second day for making headpieces. These projects required more space and time than one day would all allow. Transportation to and from morning and early afternoon classes were a challenge for families. Ride sharing was required. Strengths: Networking and camaraderie was plentiful during this project. Having the large practice space donated was wonderful. Community Participants: St Paul’s West Side has a large population of first, second and third generation Mexican Americans who have a strong desire to keep their Mexican Culture alive. A majority of the Workshop participates live, have lived or have family on the West Side and Los Alegres Bailadores is based on St Paul’s West Side so locating the Summer Workshop in the same location that Los Alegres Bailadores offers regular classes throughout the year ensures that a large number of regular Los Alegres Bailadores students can participate. The project also attracted individuals from other areas: Oakdale, Minneapolis, Eagan, Cottage Grove, Rosemount and Hugo to name a few. Out of the 75 participants, 15 had never taken a folkloric dance workshop before. The majority of the workshop’s participants are of Mexican descent, but not all. We had several participants purely interested in the cultural sharing that was provided by this unique workshop. We exceeded our anticipated participation numbers by 36% for a total of 75 participants. 15 of these participants had never taken a folkloric dance workshop before.

We had more demand at the middle and high school levels, so altered our numbers a bit, serving 28 elementary age youth and 82 middle and high school students. Our primary goal of providing access to the performing arts for youth is well served by these workshop models that provide both education and training in theater, but also a chance to perform on the Loft Stage in a true audience-attended performance. Most models provide workshops and perhaps workshop demo performances at the end. Or they just provide a show that youth can perform in. But our model combines the benefit of both, with true theater arts training plus a full show on a live stage, with lights and sound and a great audience to clap along. Youth really want to be part of a ""true performance"" and we're thrilled to be able to provide that. The model also works by aligning with time we already have booked on the Loft Stage. We can maximize the cost effectiveness of our time on the stage, but this time did book our own tech which was very helpful. Otherwise, it does stress out our Woodbury Community Theatre partners with whom we're sharing the stage. We will continue to hire our own tech to make sure the shows we offer to our workshop participants can function independently. We did lower our elementary student count from 40 to 28, and increased our middle and high school count to 82. Our surveys revealed that 1-3 day workshops in the summer are less popular than full-week activities, because parents are looking for more all-day opportunities where they can drop off their child, go to work, and pick them up at the end of the day. We will look to update our model accordingly. We still do not attract many youth of color. We do have a bigger cross section demographically, and did award a couple of scholarships to kids, but we do need to engage in more relevant outreach in order to understand the interests and needs of youth of color to participate, and how we can better engage a broader cross section for our community. 110 youth ages 8-16 were able to receive quality performing arts instruction and performance opportunities. 8 college students were able to learn and practice leadership skills in serving youth through our workshops.

About 60 individuals participated in the creation of the final project. Our consumers expressed excitement while participating. The project helps them focus, which in turn helps them create a final project. The final project impacts the behavior of the participants, and they show pride in their accomplishments, with smiles and pointing out the part that they contributed to. Families are impressed with the abilities shown by individual consumers. 58 adults created some portion of the 3D community model. They spent time in a 4-week set of workshops. During that time small groups explored the community creating the clay molds by taking imprints of various landmarks, such as a PO Box in the post office and bricks and art work of the buildings. These imprints supplied the 3D community model with actual textural images. The clay molds provided the artist to complete the sand carving before the metal pour and painting of 3D community model. The artist did the final welding assembly with the completed project being unveiled on July 24th at Lake Streets Open Street day. A new goal for 2016 was to build community through the cast metal sculpture process. The community chosen was the one block surrounding Metro Work Center, Inc. We believed that having businesses participate with our consumers it would be a beneficial exposure for both. Several business actively participated by sharing the business mascot or giving a brief history of the company. The project started on schedule and was primarily completed in a timely manner. The process to have the 3D community model put on display at the Lake Street library is currently on hold due to one of the artist breaking her leg and having complications. Being this injury took place after the final project was complete it did not impact the value of the arts experience for our consumers. Fortunately, the library is flexible and understanding helping us avoid a challenge. Having continuity of artist from the previous year gives our consumers a sense of safety and recognition and makes many of them more secure in participating in the process. Sara Hanson, the artist, continued her supportive work with the consumers, using her talents in metal sculpture to help consumers create an excellent 3D community model. Since we believe that the project was very successful, we would use the same process for a similar project, but create a different combined final artwork. We believe this continuity over three projects is a great strength of the program in helping our consumers to be involved in a process and be successful with a product. Metro Work Center successfully reached the community we planned to serve. Metro Work Center is a Day Training and Habilitation Center for adults win intellectual disabilities and related conditions. Our primary goal for this project was to provide experiences to this population that might not otherwise have the opportunity to access such sophisticated art projects. Our consumer vary widely in age (21-75), motor skills, and functioning levels. While some of our consumers work independently, other need had-over-hand assistance. A great deal of ""show and tell"" experience is involved rather than communication through language only. The artist and the Metro Work Center staff worked with each individual to help determine the scope of their ability to work with the sculpture. The poured metal art project was also a new experience for the surrounding community business who participated in the in strengthening of relationships and expressed a greater appreciation of the community of people with disabilities while collecting imprints for the project. Several businesses participated by sharing the business mascot or giving a brief history of the company with the consumers. Building this relationship lead to gaining textile pieces to be incorporated into the file project. The businesses were then invited to the unveiling of the 3D community model at Lake Streets Open streets event. Opening up this unique art experience to the community was a successful effort. Business owners/employees gave positive feedback of the experience. The artists also had the opportunity to show off and explain to the community the completed 3D community model and the process. Our Center, programming space, and surrounding community is accessible. The sculpture will be on display at the Lake Street library (as soon as the artist's injury is healed). The library is also an accessible space for our consumers and the public. 58 adults participated in assembling the clay molds for the 3D community model. The adult consumers plus the local business participated in contributing to the molds. Due to the influx of new consumers 15% of the adults and all of the business experienced this art form for the first time.",,1950,"Other, local or private",6950,,"Rhoda Becklund, Elizabeth Burmeister, Shirley Cavallaro, Ben Coauette, Angela Henderson, John Maciejny, Boyd Malo",0.00,"Metro Work Center, Inc.","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for a metal sculpture project for adults with severe to moderate intellectual disabilities.

We will also get feedback from our musicians and the audience after the performance.","We achieved our artistic goals of performing music that allowed our player-members to grow artistically, and also attracted diverse audiences from the area. We did this by programming music that was familiar (Tchaikovsky's Italian Capriccio) and music that had not been heard in this area before (Guilmant's Organ Symphony No. 2 and Nazaykinskaya's Trombone Concerto). We reached out to the community by promoting this concert in local schools, through social media, and through our host venue, Saint Andrew's Lutheran Church, as well as care facilities in the area. This resulted in increased attendance (450 people vs. 420 the year before), many of whom had not seen us perform before. One long time audience member commented afterwards that this was one of the strongest performances he had heard of ours. People were particularly delighted with the new trombone concerto, and the pre-performance talk given by the composer, Polina Nazaykinskaya. What worked was the additional outreach and the participation of the composer. The venue was also excellent. Saint Andrew's is a wonderful performance space, with one of the best organs in the area, which really helped the Guilmant piece. Since we had some success reaching out to care facilities, in the future, we would do even more outreach to similar organizations in that area, as well as increasing the number of schools we contact. We did reach the communities we set out to serve. Our musicians really enjoyed practicing and performing the pieces we played, and greatly appreciated having the opportunity to work on new music. Our audience also appreciated the connections between the new and old music, and the opportunity to hear from composer Nazaykinskaya about how she came to write her piece, and what it means to her. Our outreach to local care facilities and schools resulted in greater diversity in ages who attended, and our outreach to communities associated with our host venue, such as their homeless shelter, led to attendance by some who were seeing their first orchestral concert. We were delighted at how well our outreach resulted in more diverse audiences. Also, the selection of music, including a trombone concerto and an organ symphony, led to our reaching audience members associated with those instruments who had not heard us perform before. By not charging admission, we removed that economic barrier. By helping to arrange transportation from the care facilities, we removed that barrier. By working with the host venue and their partners, we were able to convince people to attend who might otherwise have been intimidated by a classical music performance. The main quantitative outcome was that 450 audience members got to hear this great music, and the 80 musicians of the Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra got to rehearse and perform this music, two pieces of which were played locally for the first time, so it was new music. Both groups reported, through discussions and surveys, that this concert enhanced their appreciation for new and old music.",,13570,"Other, local or private",18570,,"Stuart Ronkainen, Brian Anderson, Kristine Oberg, Lena Cicha, Emily Pantel, John Engelen, Janelle Lanz, Janyth Loney, Kate Saumur, Amy Williams, Jon Lewis, William Schrickel",0.00,"Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for a free concert at St Andrew's Lutheran Church in Mahtomedi, featuring Tchaikovsky's Italian Capriccio, the Midwest premiere of Polina NazaykinskayaÆs Trombone Concerto, and GuilmantÆs Organ Symphony No. 2.

After each lending event cycle, we send out a 15 question survey asking patrons about their experience and how they learned about our program. We also ask questions regarding patrons' demographic.","In our proposal, we outlined three artistic goals: to provide exposure for artists, to share the joy of art with members of our community, to build ongoing support of the arts in our community in the Twin Cities. During the course of this grant period, all of these goals were met to varying degrees. In our search to create more ways to support artists, we developed and implemented a paid artist fellowship program; an opportunity for artists to develop a participatory program that engages the library patrons at the lending event. At Public Functionary artist fellow, Teresa Audet discussed the process of working with the Japanese papermaking fiber kozo, as well as the history and traditional methods of the material. And at the American Craft Council, artist fellow, Carolina Borja displayed, Better a bird in the hand than two in the bush—a Mexican craft- papier mache piñata installation that incorporated sound and audience participation. Both artists were available to meet and discuss their work with the library patrons at the event. Patrons have enjoyed this opportunity to learn more about an artist’s work and artists appreciate this paid opportunity. Additionally, Minneapolis Art Lending Library provides exposure for artists by continuing to feature on our social media sites, and various forms of publicity (blogs and newspaper). We were able to share the joy of art with our community quite successfully. Our attendance has remained steady with new and returning library patrons. The community has shown their support by attending events, borrowing artwork, and spreading the word to their friends, family, and networks. During the two lending events from the grant period, we had approximately 125 people attend, over 100 artworks checked out, and 40 new borrowers. We have built up a strong support network in the community; both Public Functionary and the American Craft Council donated their space for our lending events. The project did reach new communities of both borrowers and artists. Each lending event we see many new borrowers, though we have not been as successful in diversifying our audience as we had hoped. Previously, we held our lending events at one location; at the American Swedish Institute. This year we decided to hold our events at different locations by partnering with organizations that already have well-established and diverse audiences. However, we realized we saw more diversity and higher attendance rates when holding lending events at spaces that aren’t affiliated with art, like community and recreation centers. Also, Public Functionary is not fully ADA compliant and a few of our regular and new patrons said they had issues locating the space and finding parking. We anticipated that this would be the case with the American Craft Council, so we bought a sign which many patrons thought was helpful. Moving forward we will target spaces that are more community oriented, fully ADA compliant, have ample parking, and are well marked. Our outcome goals are tied to the three facets of our mission. We raised our collection size to 110 artworks by 50 artists. During the two lending events, 125 attended our lending events, we lent out 100 artworks, and registered 40 new patrons.

One of the most enthusiastic and well received local performances was offered by a student classical guitar quartet from MacPhail - we will continue to include student groups in the future. One of the concerts had to be rescheduled because of snow - the artist came on a Tuesday and as a result had a smaller audience. We reached our community of people who love the guitar - we also reached more people who enjoy classical music as a result of targeted publicity via Facebook ads to people who ""like"" Minnesota public radio and classical music. The student group that played in June brought in more children to come hear their friends. The students from McNally Smith College of music and from the University of Minnesota came to more of our events this year - the guitar faculty are making an effort to encourage their students to come to our concerts and that is having a noticeable effect.

We noticed that we had more new audience members attending every concert this year - people outside our 200 member list - who heard about our concerts through our publicity, Facebook or friends.

The only local event of its kind, the conference provided access to artists, agents, labels and media that are working at a national and international level. It included performances, workshops, mentoring sessions, industry panels, networking opportunities and a dynamic keynote address from rocker, producer and artist advocate David Lowery (Cracker, Camper Van Beethoven). Deepening our partnership with the Minneapolis Saint Paul International Film Festival, we not only presented some joint workshops and screened the film festival's top music videos of the last year, but we also hosted a music/film networking event and debuted a screening of a documentary about legendary Minnesota jam band The Big Wu followed by a packed reunion performance at the Amsterdam Hall. This partnership was extremely successful for all parties. In addition to this and our ongoing partnerships with 89.3 The Current, McNally Smith, Summit Brewing, Amsterdam Hall, KFAI Radio, the Minnesota Justice Foundation and American Composers Forum, we also worked with The Garage/Twin Cities Catalyst to present a young performers panel about booking and playing in all ages clubs and with The Recording Academy's Chicago Chapter to present a party ahead of the Friday show. The workshops, panels, speed mentoring sessions and legal clinic had terrific content, and the concerts were eclectic and of high quality, featuring Toki Wright (hip hop), Ashley DuBose (R and B) and Katy Vernon (acoustic pop) on Friday and The Big Wu (roots/rock) and Dean Magraw (guitar legend) on Saturday. We also presented the 2nd annual Minnesota Music Champion Award to St Paul Mayor Chris Coleman as part of our kickoff party at Summit Brewing. All events ran smoothly and most were packed. The only thing we might do differently is book a bigger headliner for the Friday show or have a shorter event as attendance petered out by the last set. Also, we might charge more for the conference as it grows in scope and quality. The Minnesota Music Summit brought together different genres of music (hip hop, folk, rock, R and B) for live performances and workshops with a variety of industry professionals from rural and urban areas across the Midwest. Although the artists and workshop leaders represented a wide range of backgrounds and musical disciplines, we could still work on diversifying more of the concert audience. We were proud that each event that was part of this year’s Summit—the social hour, workshops, mentoring sessions, parties and concerts—included artists and music fans of all genres and ages, ranging from high school and college students to mid-career musicians to older veteran artists. This is due in large part to our partnership with all-ages venue The Garage who co-presented a young performers panel. We also did more intentional outreach to McNally's staff and students, which really paid off. All of the venues for the Minnesota Music Summit were accessible via public transit and were ADA compliant. The Minnesota Music Summit is open to everyone and general admission costs a fraction of what other equivalent industry conferences cost. There was no cost for the workshops or most of the networking events.

We also strive for the orchestra members and guest soloists to feel challenged musically and uplifted by both the music and audience participation. We will ask the audience members to provide feedback on a brief survey to measure attendance and to gauge their reaction to the musical selections and performance by orchestra members and soloists. The board members will circulate during intermission and post-concert to gather verbal feedback from both audience and musicians as well.","Our artistic goals were to provide the Mississippi Valley Orchestra, its collaborating artists, and audience members with a satisfying and musically challenging performance opportunity and to give the featured Saint Paul Piano Teachers Association concerto contest winner, Nita Qiu, the valuable experience of performing with a live orchestra; we feel that both goals were not only met, but exceeded. Ms. Qiu was the youngest contest winner that has ever performed with the Mississippi Valley Orchestra at 13 years old, and the music she performed was very challenging both for her and for the orchestra. Mr. Straka’s patient guidance and the musical insight of Maestro Smith and Ms. Qiu's teacher, Dr. Zins, helped both orchestra and soloist to deliver a moving and rewarding performance. Musicians and audience members alike expressed their praise verbally and in the survey responses. 93% of survey respondents said they were very satisfied with the performance, with comments such as “Have heard the orchestra before and enjoyed it tremendously” and “I love their music - sweet, beautiful, nostalgic. Thank you so much.” Other responses were “Wonderful concert!” “Love the Mississippi Valley Orchestra!” and “First rate!” Many of the challenges we encountered throughout this project had to do with the amount of time the orchestra had to rehearse with the soloists and the limitations of the rehearsal and performance venues. There were unforeseen scheduling challenges with the school district that caused the orchestra to alternate between different rehearsal venues each week. Neither location had a piano available, which meant that the first rehearsal the orchestra had with Ms. Qiu was the week of the concert. That is a very limited amount of time for the orchestra and soloist to get to know the music and become comfortable with the nuances of performing in collaboration with one another. The other challenge was that the rehearsal spaces were acoustically opposite of the church in which the orchestra performed. The orchestra could only rehearse so much with vocalist Maria Jette in the rehearsal spaces, because once they started rehearsing in the church everything had to be re-evaluated and adjusted for balance concerns. One survey respondent stated “Could not hear the soprano during much of her performance. Needs more space between her and the orchestra, which is not available in this setting and I lost interest. Pianist was wonderful. Thoroughly enjoyed the second half of the program.” Given the opportunity to repeat this project we would try to schedule at least one more rehearsal in the church in order to work through balance and spatial concerns such as those that the respondent noted. We would also look into alternative rehearsal spaces that are more acoustically similar to the church so the orchestra can have more time to adjust to the performance acoustics. Additionally, we would make an effort to have the orchestra rehearse in a space that has a piano so that they and the competition winner can have more time to put the music together. More than 300 people attended the concert, ranging from local community and church members, to devoted patrons from all across the Twin Cities metro area, to friends and family from out of town that drove as much as 3 or 4 hours to attend this concert. The musicians felt a strong sense of pride and achievement in their performance that was reinforced by the positive response of the audience members noted in the evaluation above. The survey results indicated that 48% of our audience ranged from 18 - 65 years of age, and 52% were 65 years or older. Both West St. Paul and Columbia Heights have a rapidly growing population of senior citizens, low-income families, and those with physical disabilities, so these results are not atypical. The central location of First Lutheran church in the community of Columbia Heights presented an opportunity for many patrons to attend who may not otherwise be able to hear an orchestra of the caliber of the Mississippi Valley Orchestra; in fact, 32% of the survey respondents indicated that the location of the concert was one of the reasons that they came. One person wrote in the survey comments “I greatly appreciate being able to experience such a wonderful performance so close to my home in New Brighton.” Another 32% said that they came because it was free of charge, and 11% specifically stated that the ADA-compliant, easy access venue was what attracted them. Survey results also showed that many of our audience members are repeat attendees, which points to the success of our outreach and the strength of the community that we’ve built over the last 40 years. Given the opportunity to repeat this project we would continue marketing towards our current audience members, but we would also strive to reach the younger generations and minority populations to build relationships that will sustain both the community and the Mississippi Valley Orchestra for years to come. We would do this by programming pieces that appeal to a more diverse audience base, such as our local Hispanic, Hmong, and Somali communities. We would also program music with younger children in mind, possibly incorporating props or costumes, dancers, or actors to add a visual aspect to the performance. We would develop our marketing strategy further to increase our social media presence to reach and appeal to the technology generation. We would also reach out to music educators in the local school systems for help in promoting the concert; this would be mutually beneficial, as it would both strengthen the Mississippi Valley Orchestra community and increase audience attendance and expand their students' musical knowledge and experiences. There were 2 soloists, 3 conductors, 14 members of the Minneapolis Brass Ensemble, 53 musicians of the Mississippi Valley Orchestra, and over 300 attendees that were able to share in this unique musical experience. We received 56 surveys back with an overwhelmingly positive response; 16% of respondents said that this was their first Mississippi Valley Orchestra concert experience, while 19% said that they’ve attended more than 10 Mississippi Valley Orchestra concerts.",,4950,"Other, local or private",9777,,"Karen Kahler, Brian Jewell, Megan Dvorak, Stacy Myhre Twite, Ann Delgehausen, Donna Hill, John Hill, Larry Lee, Don Ostlund, Robert Ostlund, Kathleen Spehar, Nancy Wucherpfennig",0.00,"Mississippi Valley Orchestra","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Angel Voice, a free concert showcasing the St Paul Piano Teachers Concerto Competition winner and special guest soloist, soprano Marie Jette.

We will also solicit feedback from the audience and artists through email surveys after the event.","“The culture that Film Score Fest fostered gave me as a beginner composer the confidence to attempt composing a film score for an 18-piece orchestra, something that I had never considered doing. It was the perfect balance of creative challenge vs a safe environment in which to share my work.” –Jonathan Koh, composer. Our artistic goals were to: 1) foster individual artistic development in the participating artists, 2) create a community of artistic collaborators, and 3) host an artistically engaging and exceptional event for the audience. Our kickoff event included a filmmaking workshop, led by Missy Whiteman, Sundance fellowship awardee, and a composing workshop, led by Adam Conrad, film composer and conductor of the Improvestra improvising orchestra, which inspired and guide creators. It was also a successful way to sign-up participants, of the 25 that attended, 18 people signed-up to participate. While our kickoff workshop was well attended, there was less networking than in the past because the event was in a classroom setting. In the future, we’d like to host the workshop somewhere that has informal atmosphere to promote more networking. Additionally, next year we’d like to film the workshop component and make available online for those who cannot attend the event. Despite this setback, there were many successful partnerships between filmmakers and composers during Film Score Fest 2016. For example, a pair that met at our kickoff resulted in a film with harmonious music and visuals. The composer said that being able to do things like be on set during the filming helped him strike the right mood when creating the music for the film. In order to foster artistic development, we drew on our partnership with Saint Paul Neighborhood Network to offer a free storytelling and cell phone-video classes, and affordable camera and editing classes. This year we asked participants to volunteer to mentor other artists. This was a successful idea, and we’d like to further promote it next year. Aida Alkadi, a novice filmmaker told us she was able to finish her film in time because her mentor gave her the guidance, encouragement, and the accountability she needed. Last year, we were at capacity, so we moved to the Science Museum of Minnesota for more seating, and as expected we had a near full house with 260 attendees. The 18 original films that premiered that night were well received. In our audience surveys, community members highly rated the event. Yet, a critique we struggle to address is making the festival accessible to artists of all skill levels, while making the event engaging. This year, we had a film selection panel who curated the event. This resulted in a more engaging event with films of different styles and genres, but we’d like to get more film submissions, which result in a richer diversity of films. Next year, we’d like to have our kickoff event earlier in the year, so we have an extra month promote our event. Every year we seek to engage artists from different skill levels, income levels, who bring us films with diverse of styles and genres. Because our event is free to enter and films are based on artistic merit and not skill level, we succeeded at doing this. We also offered a good deal of support to our participating artists, including filmmaking and composing workshops at our kickoff event, free and discounted filmmaking classes through our partner Saint. Paul Neighborhood Network, and offering peer mentorship. Next year, we’d like our event to be more inclusive of artists and audience members from diverse cultural backgrounds. This year we saw an increase of non-white audience members because we partnered with the Kitty Andersen Youth Science Center, which serves youth of color, young women, and youth from low income backgrounds. In return for their generous sponsorship, we are leading a filmmaking workshop for their youth in November 2016, with the hope that they will be empowered to participate in Film Score Fest 2017. This year, we had a powerful partnership between Iraqi woman and a Hmong man, who were both refugees of war. They produced a film that critiqued the US invasion of Iraq, a topic that hit home for both. These individuals participated because we made an effort to reach out to filmmaking organizations that serve marginalized populations in St Paul, including the Hmong film festival, Qhia Dab Neeg, Saint Paul Neighborhood Network, and In Progress, a St Paul nonprofit with the mission to “diversify cultural dialogue and pave the way for new voices in the field of digital art making.” We hope to expand partnerships like these in 2017. Music composition requires one to have a music theory background and the knowledge of writing notated music, which can be inaccessible. We recognize that there are many composers who are capable of creating musical scores for Film Score Fest, but are unable to participate because they don’t know how to write sheet music or they don’t write for orchestral instruments. Next year, we’d like diversify our composers by allowing these individuals to submit an audio recording of their score instead of sheet music for the selection process. If their score and film are selected, we will arrange for them to perform the score live themselves or with other musicians of their choice, as guest artists. We exceeded our screening goal by screening a total of 18 films. In our audience surveys, we asked audience members to rate this event from 1-poor to 5-excellent. 35% rated this event 5, 55% rated it a 4, 15% rated it a 3, and no one rated it below 3. We also asked Film Score Fest artists to rate this event on the same scale, 90% rated it as 5, 10% rated as a 4, and no one rated it as under 4.",,6800,"Other, local or private",11800,,"Oanh Vu, Charlie McCarron, Yuri Ivan, Amy Mino, Ellen Stanley, Bonnie Schumacher",0.00,MNKINO,"Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the third annual MNKINO Film Score Fest, an event that brings filmmakers, composers, and musicians together to create new short films with original scores that are performed live at the screening.

At least 95% of audience members who respond to a survey have a positive reactions to the concert. An orchestra member will do a rough count of the number attending each concert. Audience surveys will be included in every concert program.","Since the inception of this program 10 seasons ago, the Minnetonka Orchestra developed and refined a model that successfully meets our artistic goal of offering engaging classical music programs for young audiences. Programming is focused on shorter, more accessible compositions. A high school student who is the winner of our Young Artist's Competition performs a movement of a concerto so that the young audience hears a performer who is nearly like them. Concerts have a casual atmosphere in which the orchestra director offers engaging information and humorous comments from the podium. The orchestra members dress in costume for the Spooktacular Concerts, leaving the impression that neither classical music nor classical musician are ""stuffy."" We also use techniques that keep the audiences actively engaged. At some concerts a guest young ""conductor"" is selected from the audience to lead the orchestra in playing a march (with help of the director). Spooktacular Concerts always include a parade, during which costumed audience members march around the room to strains of a short classical piece. All of these thoughtful approaches to concerts continue to make them a success with young audience members, as well as adults. Although we have created a highly successful model for young people's concerts, these concerts have potential hazards. One is programming. While the director is aware that shorter pieces have greater appeal with this audience, he sometimes strays from that standard. In the previous season, he selected one longer composition in addition to several short familiar pieces. As a result, survey feedback suggested that these concerts were less successful than usual. Taking that feedback into consideration, musical selections for concerts during this grant period were much more appropriate in length and audience appeal. Another risk is the quality of the director's engagement with the audience. Ideally, the director will provide comments that provide insight or information about the composition to be performed, as well as an element of humor that prevents the program from becoming too serious. Achieving the appropriate balance is a challenge. The orchestra director for the first two concerts, our Founder and Artistic Director for 42 years, tended to lean towards the silly side of interaction. This definitely lent the appropriate tone to the concert experience, but did not always provide sufficient substance. In August 2016, our director abruptly retired and an interim director conducted the last two concerts funded by this grant proposal. To our surprise, this director provided a much better balance of substantive information and lighter comments that put the audience at ease. The search for a permanent conductor is underway. Our challenge for the 2017 concerts will be to obtain buy-in and understanding of our approach by the new director who will be responsible for leading these concerts. Large numbers of adults and children attended these concerts, some of whom are repeat attendees from last season's programs. We offered the programs in four locations, making the concerts more easily geographically accessible to a wider audience. All concerts were offered free of charge. However, there is an admission charge to enter one of the four venues for these concerts are held: The Arboretum charges an admission fee for non-Arboretum members. Although this is less desirable for our goal to make our concerts free for all, our appearance at the Arboretum attracts an audience that is 2-3 times larger than other concerts, due to Arboretum's ability to promote the concert to its thousands of members and to the fact that the Arboretum venue offers many other attractive options for pre- and post-concert activities. Given we offer three other concerts in other locations that have no financial obstacles to attendance, we will continue to include the Arboretum as one concert venue for these concerts in hopes of reaching as wide an audience as possible. One way we have expanded the diversity of our audience is to offer one concert that is ""sensory friendly"" for autistic children. For the past two years, we have collaborated with those leading an education program for autistic children and have been able to attract over a dozen children with autism to these concerts. The setting for this concert is more intimate. Autistic children are encouraged to participate as performers in the concert. This means that some may join the orchestra in performance of a short piece. Additionally, a particularly skilled young person with autism has performed a solo composition for cello. The impact of this solo is stunning. Audience members and musicians in the orchestra are able to see the great potential those with autism have to offer and to gain a window into this mysterious disability. Unfortunately, the sensory friendly concert was offered during Minnesota Educators Association weekend, which may limit the number who are able to attend. Next season, the concert will a week later so that it more closely coincides with Halloween and to more heavily promote this concert to the autistic community. 99% of audience survey ratings on various dimensions of the concert experience were positive. The dimensions include conductor, pace of the program, length of the program, location logistics (parking, accessibility etc.), venue, program variety, repertoire, and time of day.

(re-named from Parlor Music) was held on March 18-19, 2016 at the Washington County Historic Courthouse. This program captured the nostalgia of the origins of chamber music - small groups of friends performing together in the home. Encore, Encore! offered an evening of nostalgic time-travel, a program that might have been heard in a place like Stillwater a century ago. The music would have been light and approachable, perhaps what we consider “classical pops” today. The intimate and historic venue of the courthouse provided the perfect setting for a program of “salon music,” performed as entertainment for family and friends as it was originally. The program featured a wide variety of composers, including American, German, French and Italian music that might have been popular a century ago, from Schubert to Gershwin to Ravel and Puccini. Musicians performed in various combinations, providing a great deal of variety. The audience both nights was very enthusiastic and attendance was great at about 117 paid ticket-holders, along with 9 complimentary tickets. All artistic goals were met. Both performances were well attended, and musical quality was excellent. As always, the logistics of rehearsing and performing with so many different small ensembles in Encore, Encore! was challenging, but Music Saint Croix rose to the challenge. We received many favorable comments from audience members at the reception following both performances. Several audience members also contacted the board president during the week after the performances to say how much they enjoyed this kind of music. This grant also covered Music Saint Croix’s outreach concert at Boutwell’s Landing. Originally scheduled for April, the venue was unavailable at times our musicians could perform that month. An outreach concert featuring Music Saint Croix’s woodwind quintet was held on Saturday, July 16 at 2:00 p.m., as part of Boutwell’s “Saturday Surprise” series in the atrium. The program included a combination of classics and more popular dance-like tunes, by composers ranging from Beethoven and Mozart, to Percy Grainger, Victor Herbert and others. The seated audience numbered around 25-30, with many others passing through. Several residents commented that they enjoyed being able to hear the music in other areas of the building. As part of their “surprise” they passed out ice cream to everyone! The community served was exactly as in the proposal. 117 people were in the Encore, Encore! audience, which contained a good cross-section of music-lovers from Stillwater and the Saint Croix Valley. One change was to move the reception table with refreshments into the performance space rather than outside the door in the adjoining hallway. This made it much easier and more appealing for the audience and musicians to gather following the performance. 9 complimentary tickets were given to seniors and special guests. An increasing number of seniors and students attend at reduced rates; we are committed to maintaining low ticket prices so these people can afford to come to our concerts. At least one senior citizen thanks us for keeping ticket prices low at every single performance. The diversity within the intended community is primarily in two areas: age diversity and disability. People from a wide variety of income levels and all ages attended. All publicity mentions that concert sites are ADA accessible, and patrons with disabilities are frequently in the audience. The audience at Boutwell’s Landing was enthusiastic, and asked questions about the instruments – prompting a quick demo and explanation of single reed vs. double reed woodwinds. They have already asked us to return in the fall! As a direct response to our overall audience growth, Music Saint Croix is excited to announce that we will expand our concert season from three to four annual concerts. Beginning with our 2016-2017 season, we look forward to the opportunity to perform more frequently, with a wider variety of repertoire. (1) 117 attended Encore! Encore! with music by 13 different composers performed by 7 musicians. Performance quality was excellent, judging from audience response and evaluation of recordings.

We expect 80 children to attend our classes with their parent or grandparent. We will evaluate our anticipated outcomes by asking the adults in class to fill out a questionnaire regarding their child's development as a result of our classes. Our board of directors will meet after the Winter/Spring Semester to evaluate the adult questionnaire responses and also to evaluate the success of the semester regarding class enrollment numbers and numbers of families using scholarships and sibling discounts.","We learned that our artistic goals were achieved by observing children's behavior in class, hearing parent comments in class, and by reading the questionnaire responses. Parents and grandparents expressed that their children were exhibiting the ability to keep a steady beat. Some of the adults said that their very young children (ages 1 and 2 years) had not developed this skill yet, which is to be expected for children at these ages. Most parents/grandparents communicated that their children were singing much more frequently as a result of music class and some indicated that the singing was more tuneful. We noticed in the Picture Book Music class that most of the children were singing along animatedly to the books that we sang, moved to, and played instruments to. Adults commented that their children loved to move to music and one child stated, ""I just love to sing and dance!"" Another adult indicated that her child danced more rhythmically as a result of music class. Some adults stated that their children's dancing changed with the style of music. Children and adults in the classes heard many different styles of music from many different cultures including: African-American spirituals, classical music, reggae music and folk tunes from several countries. Our goal was to serve approximately 80 registered children with 70 adults attending weekly classes. We actually had 66 children registered with 67 accompanying adults. Our enrollment was up by 24 registered children from the 2015 Winter/Spring Semester enrollment of 44. We estimated that 24 children would receive 1/2 tuition scholarships; 12 children actually used scholarships for the Winter/Spring 2016 semester. We estimated that 12 children would use the sibling discount of 3/4 full tuition. Nine sibling discounts were actually used. Two thirds of the scholarships were used by families enrolling in the shorter 8-week classes, one class with a $15 materials fee and the other class with no materials fee. Our goal in offering these shorter classes with lower fees was to attract families who might not have been able to afford the 16-week classes, even with the help of scholarships; therefore we met the goal of a more diverse community in our classes, although we would've liked the number of families taking our classes with the help of a scholarship to be higher. We are delighted that approximately 25 grandparents attended class with their grandchildren, most of whom attended weekly, and some of whom attended occasionally or as one-time visitors. We made our class accessible by having chairs available in the classroom for grandparents who couldn't or preferred not to sit on the floor. Fourteen out of the 66 children attending were new to our classes and either were referred by friends or learned of our classes from flyers. Sixty-six children registered for classes, which was a significant increase in enrollment from the 42 children registered from the previous year. In a questionnaire, and in comments in class, approximately 80% of parents and grandparents indicated that their children were singing at home frequently as a result of the class experience.",,10900,"Other, local or private",15900,,"Barb Carlson, Kris Bakkum, Nancy Benz, June Anderson, Laurie Mackechnie, Ginny Jacobson",0.00,"Musikgarten of Anoka","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the 2016 Winter/Spring semester of early childhood music classes in the northwestern suburbs for children birth to five-years-old and their families.",2015-12-16,2016-06-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Ginny,Jacobson,"Musikgarten of Anoka","1923 3rd Ave S",Anoka,MN,55303-2422,"(763) 576-6649 ",musikgartenanoka@aol.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Anoka,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-709,"Anna Buchholz: Audience development, artistic, Community Education; Josh LaGrave: Artistic, fundraising, organizational development; Christine Shyne: General management, audience development, youth programming; Scott Swanson: General management, artistic, finance; Mary Beth King: Artistic, organizational development, general management; Hannah Rosholt: Artistic; Joanna Cortright: Education, Community Education, artistic; Peter Carlson: Artistic, general management, volunteerism; Donna Lindsay-Goodwin: General management, fundraising, audience development.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35957,"Community Arts",2016,5000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","45 singers perform for 2000 seniors at approximately 50 venues each year.

Our director gives the singers feedback after each performance.","Our goal was to sing at 50+ venues and during the project period. We exceeded that goal by singing at no less than 54 senior sites. In addition, we sang at 6 preschool sites, a slightly different program, but equally well received (""The kids talked about our performance for many weeks afterward."") We performed music from show tunes, swing, rock and roll, old standards, polka, jazz, patriotic and holiday for senior audiences who would often comment, ""This is the best program we've heard here yet!"" It might be forgetfulness on their part, or, as we believe, our songs and the way they are presented touch their hearts and lighten their day. The only down side to our year was a slightly lower than normal turnout of our singers. It seemed the same small group of 20-25 showed up at performances. We have nearly 40 singers. This is always a challenge with busy senior schedules. We continue to challenge them to make the performances fun and rehearsals educational, or as one singer described them, ""a free music lesson!"" At each performance we saw many seniors in wheelchairs, coming to the performance in walkers and some who needed assistance, so YES, we reached the audiences we intended. Although all our singers come mostly from northern European ethnic background, the same cannot be said for our audiences, which are very diverse. Although the audiences are primarily seniors, they come from various ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. For example, some sites are senior condos or cooperatives and others are low income care facilities. Minnesota is becoming more diverse ethnically, and all our sites reflect this diversity. We need to concentrate on making our own chorus more diverse ethnically. That said, we have seniors in our chorus of all levels of health--some seem easily confused and need extra help in organizing music and getting to performances. We have volunteers who drive others and help them with music, making it possible for any senior who wants to sing with us able to join us in our mission. At the Como Dockside performance on June 27, 2016 there were 187 in the audience. We handed out words to a 1919 love song, ""If You Were the only Girl in the World"" and many sang along, much to everyone's surprise.

Participant/audience count; participant/family member survey.","We had three primary artistic goals: Goal 1. Ignite the camper's interest in performing and visual arts. At the conclusion of the camp, 100% of participants were in interested in attending next year's theater arts camp and 93% agreed that they learned about different types of performing arts. Goal 2. Provide them with a two-fold experience of creating a performance and attending a performing arts event. Students produced a final showcase that included 7 short pieces around different social justice topics as well as spoken word and vocal performances. Students participated in two events intended to expose them to a range of theater arts. They attended Scapegoat, a play about race issues in the early 20th century and today, at the Pillsbury Theater, and a performance and workshop with Irreducible Grace Foundation's Fostering Voice Workshop, a program that introduces theater arts to youth aging out of the foster care system. Goal 3. Provide access to the arts for the campers and their families. Students were able to attend the two field trips/guest workshops and students put on 2 performances, one for peers and one for family and community members, reaching a total of 96 people. 100% of parents agreed that their student learned new concepts or skills, and beyond performing arts, 87% of students said they learned more about Social Justice. We were successful in introducing youth to a wide range of theater art concepts coupled with a wide range of social justice topics. Based on our goals from the previous year, we spent more time allowing students to research their topics and produce pieces grounded in facts as well as personal experience. We also spent more time on teaching students how to share what they learn and experience with their family and friends. Finally we allowed students to volunteer to be directors of each piece and that leadership role elevated the quality of each piece as well as the student experience. However, there were two main challenges: 1) Students had interests in theater roles beyond acting and directing such as costumes, make-up, lighting, etc., and we did not have the time or in some cases the expertise to focus on these skills. We would like to offer guest-led workshops in some of these areas outside the normal time so that students can opt-in based on interest and they would be open to outside students, parents, and community members. 2) Given the strong interest in directing and leadership roles, we want to focus more on this going forward, spending more time on directing skills and building in more leadership roles as students participate in a second or third year. Despite planning for 12 students, we ended up serving 25 students due to the demand and student interest. Of the 25 student participants, 76% were students of color, 60% were eligible for free or reduced lunch, and 52% had diagnosed mental health issues. We felt we were successful in reaching our student population because we were able to meet a wide range of student needs. For example, many students were only able to participate because we offered the program for free and provided transportation. The diversity of students that participated led to rich and successful conversations and theater exercises around social justice topics. We were able to make our program open and accessible to all students because we employed staff trained in working with students with mental health needs, we offered the program for free and provided food and transportation, and we had a 1:6 staff to student ratio that allowed us to work individually with each student to meet their needs. We also were successful in reaching a diverse set of artists and community organizations. Our primary theatre artist is trained in social justice theater and has a strong background in spoken word and movement arts. Pillsbury House Theater, both a community center and theatre is committed to partnering with diverse audiences to create transformational arts experiences. They uphold that arts are an integral part of all healthy communities. Irreducible Grace Foundation's Fostering Voice program is committed to providing theater training to youth who have experienced foster care, incarceration, homelessness, food in-security, or are an ally to those who have had these experiences. Three outcomes that highlight success in exposing students to theater arts (93% of youth said they learned about different performing arts), providing them with strong relationships to caring adults (100% of youth felt that camp staff really care about them), and developing their social and emotional skills (93% of youth felt more comfortable working in a group and 100% made new friends).",,1275,"Other, local or private",6275,,"Bryan Belisle, Joseph Brown Thunder, Mary Burg, Judith Cognetta, Tanya Siebert Dowda, John Hakes, Jean Houlding, Blake Huffman, Robert Jacobson, Amanda Little, Dean Maschka, Mary Jo McGuire, Gary Meehlhause, Dennis Murphy, Lindsay Nauen, Daniel Newham, Terry Nybloom, Gloria Alvarez Pederson, Dan Roe, Cory Springhorn, Miriam Ward",0.00,"Northeast Youth and Family Services","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for a three-week theater arts program for up to 12 participants of The Unity Center program.

We hope to reach our target age group of 18-25. We hope to reach our goal of $5000 in admissions. We will evaluate the results of the project through encounters with the audience, discussions with cast members, with the Off-Leash Area Board of Directors, and with peers. We will also access information from surveys included in programs, as well as on comment boards on our website and social media sites. We will also invite people to stay after every show for snacks and beverages, and give personalized tours through the set led by the designers and directors, soliciting questions about the sources and ideas that led to that evening’s performance. Additionally, we will take into account the press coverage, community responses from outreach partners, and box office statistics captured by The Soap Factory. We will evaluate these responses and data to improve future outreach, and adjust our artistic process for future shows.","We did achieve our artistic goals. Even though we had a change of venue, which caused some challenges for us. We were able to re imagine elements of the 360-degree scenic design to still offer an immersive experience for the audience. We were able to explore a very topical, politically charged subject matter, terrorism and its aftermath, and keep the experience grounded in the human aspect of facing one's mortality, without ignoring the political aspects. We were able to hire a cast that was very high quality and up to the task. The audience was clearly moved after each performance. Nearly all audience members stayed after the performance to explore the set/installation, speak with the performers, and simply reside in the space with the resonance of what they had experienced. Additionally, the set for AfterWind was among 3 designs that co-director Paul Herwig was honored for as a nominee for a Sage Award for Outstanding Design in Dance by the local dance community. We did reach our intended audience, but we would have liked to have had more of them. The change in venue also caused our marketing to be delayed until we had a new venue that could accommodate our project design, which was the Savage Umbrella space. Savage Umbrella is connected to a young audience, like our original venue The Soap Factory, but we lost out on the size audience the Soap would have connected us to. The audience was more diverse, which was related to the very diverse cast we assembled, and the universality of the themes explored in the production. Approximately 250 attended the performance. Of these 25% were anecdotally of other than Caucasian descent. The production received amazingly positive reviews from the press.

I was expecting to serve children and adults with little emphasis on teens, and that is who we served.

Combining arts with the creative process of inquiry science turned out to be one of the favorite school-wide curriculum efforts ever. Science educators guided the children in creating structures with a purpose - truly a process-art experience. The project began with an in-service for staff addressing S.T.E.A.M in the classroom. From there we began integrating STEAM experiences into our outreach events and teachers began integrating weekly T[h]inker Labs that included books and materials to create. Science educators led classroom activities for students in February and April and their parents joined them for sessions in March. The year-end family event included parents, siblings and grandparents. It was a remarkable event where each class displayed and demonstrated their Art that MOVES! projects. Staff have only commented that the children would have enjoyed more time with each T[h]inker Lab in their classroom. We felt very successful in reaching our intended audience and having the staff, parents and children involved over the semester provided lots of opportunities for feedback. We were sensitive to making sure the activities were age and developmentally appropriate. It was evident that students of all abilities were able to participate. The information shared with parents was very important to us, as their attitudes towards STEAM have such an influence on their children. The outreach events which included a Super Saturday open to the community and a Family Picnic event provided many opportunities for experiencing Art that MOVES! 120 people attended the grant kick-off event which included a variety of STEAM projects and experiences for young children and parents.166 students, birth through pre-k age, were involved in weekly/monthly events. 115 parents of preschoolers attended an additional event in March. 450 children and family members were engaged and involved in the Art that MOVES! activities and projects displayed.",,1410,"Other, local or private",6410,,"Sarah Borchers, Allison Brown, Sean Campbell, Melanie DeLuca, Jessica Dittrich, Jodi Farley, Stephanie Ferrell, Ellie Flannery, Sara Gallagher, Autumn Gode, Jessica Koch, Jessi Lindquist, Kristin Madgett, Mitzi Overland, Karen Perman, Mary Beth Plucinski, Mesa Robbins, Sarah Severtson, Katy Sherman, Jody Stegemann, Leah Sternhagen, Martha Tofteland, Cristine Trooien, Deb Van de Ven, Jodi Vucinovich",0.00,"Orono Community Education Early Learning Program","K-12 Education","Community Arts",,"Funding for Art in Motion, a multi-month study of the creative intersection of art and science by young children and their families culminating with an art show and evening family event.

Additional measurable project outcomes include involving up to ten youth performers in the production, performing for 1,000 audience members, and receiving 85% of audience satisfaction review responses to the production in the “Good and Excellent” categories. The evaluation ","The Park Theater Company’s production of 8 performances of Finian’s Rainbow achieved and exceeded its artistic goals. This production provided a theatrical production of the highest quality for the residents of St. Louis Park and surrounding communities. It also engaged 21 local actors and musicians ages 7 to 70, 60% who live, work or attend school in St. Louis Park, in song and dance, supported by 34 volunteers as tech support, set construction, transportation, ushers, and front of house personnel. Nine of the performers were under the age of 19 years old. The selection of Finian’s Rainbow addressed the relevant social issues of race, social status, immigration, income inequality, and political oppression. This production has resulted in a stronger and broader platform for the support of community theater in St Louis Park. The Park Theater Company was able to engage Julliard-trained, and accomplished, international musician, Roderick Phipps-Kettlewell as its Musical Director. Mr. Phipps-Kettlewell had served as the Musical Director of The Park Theater Company’s production of The Forger’s Apprentice – The Musical in June 2015. Five of the principal actors had also been part of earlier The Park Theater Company productions while 16 were new to The Park Theater Company. Finian’s Rainbow was the first formal stage experience for five of the youth performers. Under Mr. Phipps-Kettlewell’s musical direction and the stage direction of Jim McDonough Jr., The Park Theater Company’s Board Chair, the troupe of performers was able to coalesce and gain command of the script and score with 13 two-hour rehearsals in November prior to opening night on December 2, 2016. The set, stage dressings, props, lights and sound created an enchanting and captivating context for the performances. Master craftsman and The Park Theater Company’s Artistic Director managed the design and construction of the set. Another long-term The Park Theater Company Board Member, performed in her first The Park Theater Company production and coordinated and managed the youth choral. The significant challenges with this performance were scheduling the venue and securing the lead principal performers. The two lead actors who were specifically cast for their roles had to abandon the project after the first four rehearsals because of unexpected work commitments and transportation limitations. The original choir which indicated an interest in the production was not able to commit to the project because of lack of availability and other performance commitments during the holiday season. So the Director was compelled to re-cast the leads and assemble a choral ensemble in 10-days during on—going rehearsals. The Park Theater Company would secure written commitments from the principals with specified circumstances that might interfere with their performing. In June 2016, the Jewish Community Center Theatre Manager asked The Park Theater Company to reschedule because the Management strongly wanted to accommodate a new client request for time in November. This placed The Park Theater Company performances in the most hectic and competitive times of the holiday season but resulted in a significant rental fee reduction. The Park Theater Company did successfully reach its intended community regarding artists, performers, participants, volunteers and audiences. The total number of audience attendees was 56% or 555 persons of the proposed target of 1,000 persons originally projected in the project proposal. The Populations Benefiting in regard to age, diversity and access were not significantly different from the original projections and objectives. The group of artists/performers/volunteers/audience attendees engaged in this production was the most diverse, in regard to age and race, ever in The Park Theater Company’s eight-year history of producing theatrical performances in St Louis Park. The age range of performers was from age seven to seventy and racial diversity included three African Americans, one Korean American, and seventeen of European Descent. The audiences were similarly reflective of this racial diversity. Accessibility was ensured for those audience members with disability challenges including physical, emotional, and social challenges. Specific arrangements were made for the hearing impaired including hearing aid loop technology, microphones and sign language interpreters. Over 200 complimentary tickets were provided to community members including fifteen Sabes Jewish Community Center Inclusion Program participants, 25 veterans and their families, 50 seniors, and 10 low-income families. Meeting the projected general attendance objective of 1,000 persons was not reached due to changes in community notification in local community newspapers, and as a result only being able to purchase advertising for the last four performances. The first four performances had 225 audience attendees while the last four performances had 330 audience attendees resulting in a 47% increase in the second weekend. Increased advertising and targeted group solicitation through the schools, places of worship, and senior residences will be implemented for future productions. Three successful project outcomes include engaging 55 artists and volunteers in St. Louis Park; performing for 555 audience members including 315 paid attendees and 240 complimentary admissions; and attaining 100% of audience satisfaction and reviews in the “Good to Excellent” categories measured by written comments and one to one interview responses with 20% attending multiple performances.",,19413,"Other, local or private",24413,,"James J McDonough Jr, Tim Colby, Marshall Hambro, Elizabeth Chambers Brown, Claudia Fashingbauer, Robert Yarwood II, Michael McDonough, Jerry Wilson, Todd Bruse, Cathy Zolkowski Wilson, Bea Hasselmann",0.00,"The Park Theater Company","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to produce and present eight performances of ""FinianÆs Rainbow.""

Led by established Hmong Artist Yang Yang and her 10 young artists have transformed the Broadway into arts space with Stenciled Arts and Hmong Patterns. The project is designed to mold messages and to provoke discussion around Arts and immigration settlement in North Minneapolis. Sidewalk Arts Project aims to enable immigrant/refugee youth, aged between 14-17 years old, to ACCESS traditional visual arts reflecting through stencil arts design/painting techniques to articulate historical and cultural concerns, and to reveal stories through Community Engagement process, that are personal to immigrant/refugees; yet so common in everyone and everyday life. This year we focused on the Hmong refugee experience. The Project has utilized the unexpected public spaces, such as sidewalks to activate North Minneapolis with art and energy. The project has split into 2 parts. In the first part – the first 6 weeks, youth has participated in one day a week for graphic design trainings to build solid two-dimensional arts skills and storytelling methods, learning different approaches to drawing with Minnesota based artists Yang Yang. Youth then collected Hmong traditional patterns and icons from Hmong elders. In the second part for the remaining 3 weeks, youth have participated in an intensive community outreach with stencil arts printing at North Minneapolis Sidewalks during weekends (7/30, 8/19, and 8/27), and youth have make collaborative designs/patterns, these Street Arts have beautified the neighborhoods with artistic design patterns. Our project has successfully increased participation by eliminating some fairly standards barriers ---arts class cost, lack of communal arts experience and transportation. Through our project, Hmong youth have opportunities to create the new bicultural arts - integrating the Hmong traditional patterns and Western graphic designs into their creations, additionally we have increased constituent influence and ownership through the street outreach to neighbors. The learning accumulated to the Street Arts Events, with more than 500 audiences the day of creation, and more than 2,000 audience over a 2-weeks period. All Planning Committee members and artists have focused on outreach and audience development process to support ACCESS for all people. Pathway Learning Center has reached out to the Hmong community and North Minneapolis residents; postcards sent around Metro areas and flyers to Minneapolis public school students. Our target participants are at-risk, low-income youth with special focus on Hmong refugee youth 14-17 years old. Besides young artists, our project has also successfully attracted – low-income North Minneapolis residents – to share/exchange cultural heritages through arts. We have successfully outreached to the intended communities, roughly estimated about 50% are African American audiences; 20% are Asian Americans; 20% are Caucasians and 10% are other ethnicity groups. Sidewalk Arts Project has successfully hosted a series of activities for the target participants and audiences, which included: Part 1: April - May, 2016, ongoing Community Engagement and Finalize the themes and youth participants, and secured the Sidewalk Arts usage agreements with the FLOW and the City. Part 2: Summer 2016, Mid-June to end July for 1 day a week for two-dimensional drawing and graphic design instructions for the youth, with Lead Artist Yang Yang. Part 3: Summer 2016 – July 30th Sidewalk Arts Project presented at the FLOW as a kickoff event at the Broadway and Lyndale. Youth has learnt mural painting techniques and storytelling methods following the “Comprehensive Arts Learning” model to address issues in their Hmong Community, establish an ALTERNATIVE PLATFORM for self-expression in a collaborative learning environment, and help youth and teaching artists gain creative, conceptual and professional arts skills. Sidewalk Arts Project supports a collaborative learning environment consisting of Minnesota-based teaching artists, for youth and adults, which may not be accessible due to economic barriers to build and strengthen creative and conceptual skills. This structure allows participants and teaching artists to build relationships beyond the student/teacher dynamic and provides for all participants to become learners and teachers to each other with a unified learning goal – to use their artistic talents as motifs to address social or cultural issues in their mural paintings. Through in-depth learning and community engagement, our project provides artists with the space and time to challenge their established ideas, move beyond their best work to investigate their next work. Additionally, the Sidewalk Arts Project, has: Taught transferrable skills to make youth more employable; Engaged artists across generations in a collaborative effort to create a vibrant place that speaks to the culture of the Hmong in North Side; Built an attractive connection between the North Side and urban arts that improves walk-ability and make the area more attractive to developers; Built the capacity of the Hmong artists to teach Asian American Arts and share the community history. We have evaluated the success through 1) Reaching Target Numbers (10 young artists) and the Quality of the Street Arts events (with 100% satisfaction rate with FLOW review), and 2) the Quality of Youth Creations to communicate their cultural heritages, and their growing up experience through design.

In order to accomplish this experience all the participants will work towards three goals: each artist will complete a warm up activity in the beginning of each session; each artist will create one piece of art they are proud of and willing to share with the group; and each participant will complete a piece of art to the best of their ability to be displayed in the December art exhibit that represents themselves and their Art Abilities experience. The criteria for measuring success will include each participant being able to produce at least one piece of art that they are willing to speak about at one of the six weeks and show a piece of art during the December Art Exhibit. To evaluate the program, the participants will be given an evaluation in the method that best meets the client's needs at the end of the six weeks (survey, a question and answer session where the group participates, or private conversation with the project personnel). Surveys will also be given to spectators of the Art Exhibit.","REACH’s goal was to have individuals with disabilities experience a different form of emotional expression and communication, which Art Abilities accomplished in multiple ways. First, every participant completed a warm-up activity at the beginning of each session. Participants executed a wide variety of warm-up activities, with each activity challenging the participant’s imagination and creativity. Participants of Art Abilities were surveyed to see what warm-up activity was their favorite. Each survey response had a different activity listed, demonstrating that each activity offered something fun and challenging. Second, every participant was given the task to create one piece of art in which they were most proud and would be willing to share to the rest of the group. Again, participants were surveyed to determine which art project they completed in which they were most proud and would be willing to share with other participants. Similar to the responses regarding the warm-up activities, each survey response had a different project listed. This validates the uniqueness of each of the art projects that were offered during Art Abilities and also reflects how each project was tailored so that regardless of artistic ability, all participants could enjoy and complete the projects. Third, participants were challenged to complete a piece of art to the best of their ability to be displayed in the art exhibit. A large number of artists expressed interest in attending the exhibit. Unfortunately, no artists could attend due to scheduling conflicts. Ms. Wright did attend however and modeled a few of the art projects and explained what Art Abilities was to people we support, staff, and community members. Lastly, REACH surveyed the participants to see if there is anything they would change about the Art Abilities program. Over half of the participants stated that there is nothing they would change about the program. The rest of the participants expressed that they would like more projects that spanned multiple sessions so as not to rush to finish the project, which could be achieved by way of offering more sessions. The feedback provided by the participants was overwhelmingly positive and demonstrates that Art Abilities allowed artists to (1) explore multiple artistic areas of interest, (2) challenge themselves in a fun and supporting environment, and (3) learn new and exciting ways to express themselves and communicate with others. At the conclusion of Art Abilities, the community served was the same as the original intended audience. Art Abilities served individuals ages thirteen years and older with developmental disabilities such as autism spectrum disorders, fetal alcohol syndrome, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, brain injury, severe learning disabilities, and emotional or behavioral disorders. The participants of Art Abilities lived in the Western and Northwestern suburbs of the Twin Cities. The outreach efforts and publication through the REACH newsletter was instrumental in reaching the intended community Art Abilities was created to serve. The printed REACH Reader newsletter is mailed out to 3,485 individuals, and an additional 918 individuals receive our newsletter via email. We also dedicated some social media attention to our free Art Abilities program, and that message got out to our 1,128 Social Media followers (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and YouTube). Additionally REACH staff attended local transition fairs, resource fairs, and disability provider events to promote the program which resulted in our highest program registration yet. With limited opportunity for individuals with developmental disabilities to access quality art programming, outreach was necessary to have diverse artists attend the group. The artistic abilities of the participants were also diverse. There were beginner artists who came to the program to try something new, and there were artists who were more experienced. The Art Abilities program was offered at no cost. This allowed participants with financial constraints to participate in the program. People with disabilities on average have a lower socioeconomic status in order for them to maintain financial assistance. By having the program completely free to the participants, REACH was able to make Art Abilities accessible to all who wanted to participate. On the survey, 100% of the participants expressed that they would like to participate in the program multiple times a year. Additionally, 75% of the participants stated they were “Very Satisfied” with the program and 25% stated they were “Satisfied.” Participant’s family members calling and asking when Art Abilities will be offered again further reinforced the responses on the survey.",,2550,"Other, local or private",7550,,"Patrick Boley, Melissa Rahn, Erin Kober, Andy Weinstein, Sharla Duerre, Gary Johnson, Renae Kimpel, Jill Kaiyalethe, Nicolas Montoya, Dan Nelson, Kari Schamber",0.00,"Reach for Resources","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Art Abilities, a six-session series of workshops that offers youth and adults with developmental disabilities the opportunity to explore a variety of art media.

Ninety (90) percent of parents will report that creating pottery together was a positive family bonding experience and 90 percent of participants will indicate that they gained a better understanding of the pottery-making process. Perspectives utilizes a reflection tool that provides basic and practical feedback for future programming. This quick exercise will be done at the end of each workshop session with the whole group. We will additionally evaluate the project’s success based on the following factors: number of families participating in each workshop, number of families who attend both sessions of their workshop, number of families completing a set of dishes or centerpiece, and number of families who join in the celebration dinner and take part in presenting their work.","Artistic Goals: Our Family Dish project achieved our goals to offer each parent and child the opportunity to create at least one plate or centerpiece within a family set of dishes. Participants learned how to use professional ceramic tools appropriately and artistically to craft their pieces. Once the dishes were created, participants learned the proper techniques on how to glaze their pottery. The families used creative designs and patterns to distinguish their work as a cohesive set while also featuring the unique contributions of each family member. Upon completion of the project, a final celebration was held during which families shared a meal and proudly presented their set of dishes to the group. Approximately 24% of all participants chose to attend a second workshop and 80% expressed interest in developing their pottery skills through additional classes. Strengths/Challenges: We found the best staffing combination for each workshop included: one artist, one staff member, and two or more volunteers. This level of support ensured participants received adequate one-on-one support throughout the process. Step-by-step demonstrations were provided for each project, which greatly helped each participant complete their artwork successfully. Many participants chose to attend the final, advanced workshop session. It was critical for staff and volunteers to be familiar with the techniques and strategies learned during the initial plate workshops so that our artist could focus her attention on instructing how to create a centerpiece. As we had hoped, many families were motivated to try their hand at creating centerpieces following the plate workshops. This leads us to believe that we could possibly offer additional complex clay projects in future classes. Returning families expressed strong interest in tackling more intricate projects, both functional and sculptural. The biggest challenge involved accommodating the varied paces of work while still offering a chance to come together at the end of each class for important group reflection. We learned to manage this by having our reflection time happen once half the families had completed their work, allowing the remaining families to finish after reflection. Lessons Learned: In the future, we’re interested in offering more advanced-level clay classes alongside the beginner-level classes. We believe this approach would encourage new families to attend, and motivate returning families to continue developing their pottery skills. We discovered that the ideal participation number was 12-15 people per workshop. This size provided individuals the support they needed while maintaining an intimate and personal experience for families. Scheduling the workshops in pairs during the same weeks with a shared celebration event at the end also worked well to foster a sense of artistic community as well as allow savings on kiln use. Community Served: Our project focused on providing an opportunity for family connection while making art. We successfully reached the intended audience, as all attendees were connected to Perspectives’ Kids Connection program, which serves both families living in our Supportive Housing as well as the surrounding community. A total of 79 unduplicated individuals participated (50 children and 29 adults). Children ranged from five to thirteen years of age; adults included a mix of parents and grandparents. 100% of these 29 families meet the low-income designation, 75% of which are single-parent families. Thirty-one percent of the families live in Perspectives’ Supportive Housing Program and are considered homeless. These families have a history of trauma including violence, mental health issues, and chemical dependency. Denise Tennen, the artist identified in the proposal, facilitated all six workshops. Mickie Key, Kids Connection Program Manager, four Kids Connection staff, and four volunteers attended and supported the sessions. Tennen was assisted by at least one staff and two volunteers during each class. By serving 79 individuals and 29 families, we nearly reached our intended participation rate of 80 individuals and 30 families. In comparison to our 2014 Family Dish project, we served an additional 15 individuals and 3 families during this project. We attribute this increase to the growing popularity of the project and the staff’s recruitment efforts. Outreach Efforts: The project was promoted in a variety of ways to ensure all interested families were able to participate. Kids Connection staff has built strong relationships with our families, which served as the main avenue to encourage involvement. Staff contacted families directly about this opportunity in person or via phone. They reviewed project details and supported the adults in the registration process. The project was also supported by staff in our Supportive Housing Program, who encouraged mothers to take advantage of the workshop and helped problem-solve schedule conflicts. Project Accessibility: Accessibility was a top priority in the Family Dish project. We removed barriers to engagement by providing a meal prior to each workshop, free transportation, and free childcare for younger siblings. We ensured access by offering all activities at Perspectives Family Center, where children were already participating in our after-school programming. Workshop sessions and the celebration dinners were provided at no cost. During the classes, all materials and tools were provided free of charge. We chose the plates and centerpieces as our art activity because it was a simple way to create beautiful pieces within our fun and structured format. Six workshops were provided for 79 children and adults to create art together. 94% of participants indicated that the project improved their pottery skills; 100% of parents reported this as a positive experience for their family and would recommend the class to another family. Participants described the class as, “fun, inspiring, a new learning experience, and a way to be expressive.”",,1280,"Other, local or private",6280,,"James Kremer, Rae Lesmeister, Dawn Courrier-Cable, Sue Zelickson, Jeannie Seeley-Smith, Cheryl Cochrane, Marne Brooks, Becky Dvorak, Debbie Estes, Susan Grafton, Peter Hayden, Karen Heithoff, Dustee Jenkins, Sarena Lin, Michael Maeser, Kelly Merriman, Jim Murphy, Ellen Schmidt, Karl Schmidt, Ruth Usem, Vicki Wyard, David McNally, Lisa Denzer, Pam Miller",0.00,"Perspectives, Inc.","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for The Family Dish, a pottery project offered to at-risk families in the Kids Connection program featuring a series of workshops culminating in a celebration dinner.

We will be administering an audience survey at the Spring concert. Audience and participant counts will be taken at both the Winter and Spring concerts.","The Plymouth Concert Band presented concerts on March 6, 2016 and May 14, 2016 as outlined in our grant proposal. The theme for the March 6th performance was Music From All Directions. The selections we performed included the following: Arabesque – Samuel R. Hazo (Middle East); First Suite in Eb for Military Band – Gustav Holst (Great Britain); Fiesta - Symphonic Dance No. 3 – Clifton Williams (Latin America); Overture on Canadian Folk Songs – Patrick J. Burns (Canada); Excerpts from Appalachian Spring – Aaron Copland (Eastern United States); The Cowboys – John Williams (Western United States). The May 14th concert, under the theme of ""Imagine"" included these selections: A Childhood Remembered – Rossano Galante; City Trees - Michael Markowski; Harry Potter Symphonic Themes – John Williams; Wicked - Stephen Schwartz; Shortcut Home - Diana Wilson. Our guest artist for the May concert was trombonist Dean Sorenson, Associate Professor and Director of Jazz Studies at the University of Minnesota. Mr. Sorenson performed with the band on ""The Blue Bells of Scotland"", two jazz pieces, ""Reflective Mood"" and ""Keep the Stick."" ""Reflective Mood"" and ""Keep the Stick"" showcased Mr. Sorenson's skill as an improviser. We also featured the winner of our Young Artist Competiion, bassoonist Briana McGrane. Brianna performed Rondo-Allegro by Carl Maria von Weber. At the time, Brianna was a senior and member of the Wayzata High School Wind Ensemble. She will be pursuing a degree in music education at Luther College in the fall. We were very pleased with the artistic quality of each concert. In keeping with our programming philosophy, we followed the format of theming each performance. The theming of concerts continues to give our programming cohesion for both the players and the audience. The addition of Brianna and Dean as guest artists for the May concert added greatly to that concert and helped the band play at its highest level. Subsequent to the submission of our Metropolitan Regional Arts Council grant application, some adjustments were made to repertoire. These adjustments included addition of ""A Shortcut Home"" and ""City Trees"" for the May concert. Both of these pieces we felt better fit the theme of ""Imagine."" Both are pieces of program music that are striking for the way they paint musical pictures for the audience. At the time of our application, we were in contact with a saxophone quartet, in keeping with our thought that the May concert would feature a woodwind group. Scheduling conflicts made it impossible to engage this saxophone quartet and they will be presented in 2017. For the future, we will make every effort to engage guest artists further in advance to reduce the possibility of scheduling conflicts with our selected guest artists. The audience we reached with the March and May concerts showed very little difference from past audiences. We were a bit disappointed in the attendance, which was approximately 120 people for each concert. While we received very positive feedback from the audience regarding the performances, the Board will be attempting to draw more people in 2016.17. Our efforts in this regard will begin with forming a standing Nominating Committee and more careful consideration of the following of guest artists we engage for the May concerts. It is clear that audience development remains one of our biggest challenges. By establishing a standing Nominating Committee, our intent is to be more proactive in seeking out Board members and volunteers with expertise in developing audiences. It is our hope that by having ongoing activity in recruiting volunteers, we can increase both the number of volunteers and those with talents in community outreach. Both the March and May concerts were free and open to the public. The Wayzata High School Auditorium is accessible to those with physical disabilities. Experience has shown that engaging guest artists with a strong local following has helped increase our audiences. As we plan for future seasons, guest artists' ability to bring their own fans to our concerts will be a larger factor in our decision-making. Both the March and May concerts were free and open to the public. Our concert venue, the Wayzata High School Auditorium is accessible to those with physical disabilities. The Board of Directors remains committed to presenting concerts free of charge and in accessible venues. Approximately 120 people attended each concert versus our goal of 150 per concert. We were pleased that we attracted more applicants to the Young Artist Competition than in years past. Our audience continues to be pleased with their concert experience and band members continue to provide us with positive feedback about their experiences with the band.",,3261,"Other, local or private",8261,,"Erin Kirsling, Travis Kramer, Leah Yotter, Richard Frevert, Tanya Williams, Randy Olson, David Elmhirst",0.00,"Plymouth Concert Band","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for their 2016 Winter and Spring band concerts featuring a special guest artist and the winner from the high school music competition at the Spring concert.

We had 73 paid members during this project with some 40-50 participating at every performance. Rehearsals are well attended, with some 50-60 members each week. Because we are a community based senior chorus, there is no expectation that every member attend every rehearsal or performance. The biggest challenge at the beginning of the project was that our accompanist had a stroke, and we needed to find a new one. We continue to sing a variety of music and to have one to three small ensembles or soloists sing at each performance. Members work hard to learn new music all the time, while maintaining a repertoire for on-going sing outs. We exceeded our expectations this year because our community Holiday Concert was on a day where the sub-zero temperatures left us afraid we would be singing to the walls. But, no. We were delighted to still have some 600+ attend. We continue to be asked back by the State Fair, municipal parks, and for the first time were asked to sing at the American Swedish Institute. We changed our advertising to senior clubs and residences by sending out a brochure instead of a letter. We reached the anticipated number of seniors and actually extended our public exposure by singing Parker's Lake and Minnehaha Park. We continue to advertise in local paper. At our gig on February 14, the resident who emceed our performance was in tears at the end of our show that closed with a moving rendition of The Battle Hymn of the Republic.

We were successful in commissioning 10 new poems from powerful poets. It is exciting to ask poets to write new poems specifically for this event because the poets can create really relevant new work that grapples with the current news. For example poet Sun Yung Shin created an erasure poem from a New York Times article about the shooting in Orlando. This allows the event to be a place where not only can people luxuriate in community, but they can also process/express their feelings about very current issues. 2: To strengthen community ties by offering a free, bi-lingual unique event during our precious summer season that allows people to be fed good food and beautiful language. Our Spanish speaking poetry reader was wonderful and partnered with several poets whose poems she had received translations for and walked around with them, allowing the poetry to go back and forth from English to Spanish. This was a treat for everyone, regardless of what language they spoke/understood. 3) To celebrate the powerful voices of racially, culturally, intergenerational, local poets while giving them an opportunity to witness and support each other’s work. We had a diverse group of poets who not only had meaningful exchanges with attendees but also stopped to listen to each other's poems, allowing them to connect with one another and be inspired by each other's work. All of them asked to do this event again next year! 4) To highlight the talents of local bakers. The pies! We had 30 pies that each had a distinct personality and flavor of their very own. A few of the pie makers are wanting to start their own pie making business and they were able to network and get future customers! 4) To stretch poets and audiences comfort zones by presenting poems in new ways that breaks down barriers, inspiring conversation and connection. This year, all of the poets commented on how many in-depth conversations poets had with attendees about the subject matter in their poems. To design an event that encourages diverse community members to interact meet each other. We had several people write in our reflections book that they made new connections and met up with old neighbors or were introduced to new ones. We believe this particular goal is the one this event succeeds at consistently. Once again this year we had a beautifully diverse audience/participant base. However, we were missing people who spoke Spanish as their first language. We created a postcard in English and Spanish and truly made the event a bi-lingual event, translating the poems into Spanish. We reached out to key leaders in the Latino organizing community through the Neighborhood Association, Central Area Neighborhood Development Organization, Alondra Cano's office, and other individual community organizers to let them know about the event and also sent out a Spanish email blast. We will continue to make this event a bi-lingual event and continue to build relationships with Latino/Spanish speaking residents year after year. We were able to make this event accessible to all ages and physical abilities and celebrated and welcomed a very diverse group of participants. 200 people attended.

In addition, we will have a special survey, with room for comment, for the residents of 3200-3400 17th Avenue.","Below are the goals we established for PorchFest and how we believe we achieved them: 1) Provides a performance opportunity for local emerging and established artists. We had 21 groups participate this year with a combination of emerging and established. All of the groups live, play, or work within five miles of the festival. Because of the diverse array of musicians, dance groups, and spoken word groups, each artist performed for new audiences, increasing their exposure to future fans and also meeting other musicians who shared their community-based values. Something we will change/add in the future is working with more curators. We would like to have 4 - one for each porch. This will help us bring in more new artists as well as reach more community members. 2) Increases access to the arts through music and poetry: We believe that traditional barriers to arts participation include difficulty in traveling to an arts event or venue, cost, or lack of family-friendly atmosphere that allows families to experience art together. Porchfest addresses all of these barriers by having an event that starts at 4 pm (allowing families with younger children to participate), that has no costs or fees involved, and that takes place in the streets where people live and can walk to experience. Something to add for next year is to continue to get more input from community members in general for the event. 3) Works to build connection among neighbors across perceived lines of gender, age, race/culture, and ability: This is a huge area of success for Porchfest, specifically with the artists-audience connection. We have a great diversity of bands/musical genres, people can walk down two blocks and hear four different types of music. We had participating musicians from the GLBT, African-American, Latino/a, Native American, White, Mixed, differently abled communities and more. Audience participation is high for families, elders, inter-generational access. To improve in future years: reaching Immigrant populations who live close, people who aren’t on certain social media circles, working with curators from missing audience groups. The diversity of the neighborhoods is represented through the musicians, and there is still work to be done with the audience participation. The successful piece of Porchfest 2016 was the participation of families and neighbors, the inter-generational participation, and a new partnership with Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association and Pillsbury House and Theatre. We increased our outreach this year with bi-lingual fliers and information in the neighborhood publications. We also had one new curator – a community member and previous Porchfest musician, Carlos Lumbi. The shared curation was a successful collaboration. We recognize the name carries a certain connotation with it of a more white-demographic, blue-grassy vibe. We notice that as new people experience Porchfest each year, they are surprised at the musical diversity – the audience demographics have been slowly but steadily shifting towards greater representation of the neighborhood demographics. This is something we will continue to work towards in marketing and during the event. Visions for the future include arriving at four curators. Also, we hope to increase opportunities for new, emerging, local food vendors to use Porchfest as a jumping off point. We will continue and deepen our partnership with Powderhorn Park Neighborhood Association as a way to reach more of the local community members. To paraphrase Thomas X, Porchfest artist: This is what’s possible when we believe anything is possible. We are creating the community we know is possible and reclaiming our streets and neighborhoods. September is perfect for this event: a final celebration of summer and a transition into the fall.

Artists will take an audience count at the beginning of each performance and give post-performance feedback on their ability to collaborate with naturalists and how comfortable they are creating a one-person puppet show.","We met all of the goals as written in the original proposal with the exception of creating “one-person puppet shows.” For the goals that we did meet, it worked well to partner with Silverwood Park as a center for the arts and environment because they helped support us in our marketing efforts. It also helped us reach an audience that would appreciate both the artistry of the puppetry as well as the information in each show about the natural world. It also worked very well for us to partner with professional naturalists when writing our productions. It helped us research each of the animals that we had selected as a show topic more thoroughly. Often, the information that we found was just as much as the naturalists knew about a given topic, but we would not have researched as thoroughly if they had not been part of the project. Work with the naturalists also helped us to embed the information more subtly into the shows. For example, one of the shows presented information about birds in its initial writing in a way where characters were reading directly from an encyclopedia. The naturalists helped us brainstorm ways to create more realistic and interesting dialogue so it did not seem like we were just dryly listing facts and information. For the goal of making “quality one-person puppet shows by developing a system for feedback and peer review throughout the artistic process,” we met the spirit of the goal as originally written. In particular, we did develop a system of feedback and peer review. We also made sure that each production was the artistic voice of one artist. However, two of the productions added an additional puppeteer, and one of the productions had a technician to run lights, so we did not follow this goal to the letter. The system of review that we set up was to make six meeting where all of us were present to give each other feedback on ideas. Artistically, this worked very well for us because it is incredibly inspiring to create work alongside other artists. It also helped for us to give feedback and suggestions for how to solve technical problems. We only faced two challenges with this project: the timeframe in which the shows were created, and we could have used a larger budget. Because of the amount of time it took for us to know that we had received the grant, many of the artists involved in the project had already booked up their schedule in the spring and summer because they primarily work as independent contractors. If we were to do the project again, we would propose a timeline in the fall/winter when they tend to have less independent contract work and more time to create. We would also find a way to expand the budget in order to accommodate hiring more artists. We would also create a take-home study guide for kids to have more thought and reflection after the shows. In the initial grant narrative we described our intended community as people who are interested in both arts programming and nature education programming. This audience is primarily the audience that we did have. We were successfully able to get this audience because of Silverwood’s focus as a center for the art and environmental education. We also defined our audience as the tightly knit world of puppetry. This is true because we did end up with members of the puppetry community of Minneapolis attend productions and give feedback on performances. The audience that we anticipated benefiting included adults between 25 and 64 and pre-K children and youth. This was true with our actual audience because of the way that we marketed the puppet shows through Three Rivers. We also anticipated that at least 200 audience members would attend over all of the performances. The final number of audience that did attend was 229, so we slightly exceeded our anticipated audience count. Our outreach efforts reflected the diversity that is present at Silverwood. We had a diversity of age ranges and we had some audience members who were primarily interested in nature education and some audience members who were primarily interested in art. We also had some who were interested equally in both art and nature. If we wanted to reach a more diverse audience in the future, then we may find a way to reach out to specific members of other communities or find a different geographic location to hold performances in order to include a more diverse audience. We met the goals of making this project accessible and open to all who wanted to participate by not charging for tickets and relying, instead, on a suggested donation for entrance to the production. If anyone would have been unable to access a production because of their inability to pay for tickets, they were able to come to these shows.

Qualitatively, we hope to once again offer Twin Cities art patrons the highest quality and most diverse offering of jazz and rhythm-driven dance the area has to offer. We will evaluate the success of our proposed outcomes by surveying audience members and program participants. We will then analyze the data to gain insights to allow for improvement the next time we run the program.","Rhythmically Speaking 2016 yielded successes and challenges in the face of the goals we set forth to accomplish in producing the program. Among the successes were continuation of the organization's mission to support practitioners of jazz and rhythm-driven dance by providing them space, funding, marketing and audience development for their work. Fulfillment of this aim continues to increase; the artists selected for this year's jazz and rhythm-driven choreography showcase received stipends of $1200, up from Fiscal Year 2013's $1000 and Fiscal Year 2012's $800. This is the highest stipend paid to choreographers out of all similar events in the Twin Cities dance community, something of which we are very proud. Rhythmically Speaking is working hard to continue providing increasingly meaningful stipends. Receipt of this funding also allowed us to better the production elements of the show, hiring quality technical staff to bring the Southern Theater space alive not only with great rhythm-driven dance, but also excellent light and sound atmosphere. Personnel-related successes include the ability to fund the Artistic Director's hourly programming, marketing and development work. The goal of the production audience containing at least 20% new viewers was also met, and we engaged 35 artists (5 more than goal) and 396 attendees, just about the 400 we hoped to engage. The artists and audience truly engaged with the challenge to innovate within the territory of ‘jazz and rhythm-driven dance,’ resulting in a production rich in cultural diversity and forward thinking. This year’s choreographers stepped up to the challenge, delivering a diverse range of work that spoke to the ability of jazz and rhythm-driven dance forms to reflect upon serious topics including protest and loss. This variety and depth is a testament to our success in widely spreading word of this opportunity throughout dance community and reaching artists of high calibers. Artistic challenges included the logistics of hosting out of town guests on a budget; we continue to consider how we can best support bringing in guest artists, including the possibility of setting aside travel funding beyond the offered stipend. We also experienced challenge in dealing with audience members who were not conducting themselves appropriately for viewing theater (speaking loudly while the production was in progress). This challenge has caused us to consider more deeply how we language box office information. Based upon audience surveys, Rhythmically Speaking is successfully engaging our creating community (45% of the audience identified themselves as a 'Dancer', 20% as a 'Choreographer'). We also managed to beat our goal of having 20% of our audience be new attendees! 20% quoted reading an article or media piece as their reason for coming. We have also been focused on drawing in people with interests related to jazz and rhythm-driven dance, such as hip-hop dance and jazz music. 30% of responders said they attend live music at least monthly, and 80% gave a 9 or 10 (10 being high) when asked how likely they'd be to recommend the show to a friend, so we are hopeful that new audiences will continue to connect with us. It is important to us that our programming is accessible, so we promoted the opportunity widely throughout the dance community and also took care to select an ADA accessible venue located along public transit routes. Admissions were priced to balance paying the artists a reasonable stipend while providing an affordable experience to audiences. We feel that our general ticket rate of $24 was reasonable in line with this goal, and we also offered student rush rates and volunteer opportunities. One challenge we experienced again being at the Southern Theater was a shortage of parking, exacerbated by the opening of U.S. Bank Stadium and concert events that happened there during three out of our four shows. We also again found challenge in ensuring our measures for making the production accessible to people with physical disabilities were utilized. We allocated $300 in our budget toward providing an audio-described performance, and while we took great lengths to spread the word, maintaining regular contact with VSA Minnesota, we received no interest in the service. We will continue to work toward best practices for engaging the disabled community, and are considering creating an element of programming that will enable us to connect to special needs students in public schools. The strongest long-term benefits we believe our participants took away are the relationships they built and public exposure for their creative work. For audiences, short-term connection to their bodies can translate into long-term desires to seek out such opportunities again. Viewing the show challenges them to fall whole-heartedly into an artistic experience that connects them to their eyes, ears and hearts. The audience stepped up to the challenge, providing feedback indicating they were moved. In summary, the most significant outcomes resulting from the completion of this project include a continually expanding base of new audience members engaging with our programming, a deepening of our support of artists innovating in jazz and rhythm-driven dance and a developed capacity to select artists exploring subject matter with great depth.",,11000,"Other, local or private",16000,,"Katie LeBlanc Gamades, Erinn Liebhard, Caitlin Milligan Shaefer, Nikki Otten, Zoe Sealy, Heather Westerlund",0.00,"Rhythmically Speaking","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the eighth annual showcase featuring dances created by five to nine local emerging and established Twin Cities Jazz and rhythm-driven choreographers.

We will do exit surveys at all events with a goal of 90/5 favorable ratings of the events.","We believe we did achieve our artistic goals. Our goals were as follows: 1. Provide high quality artistic experiences within our budget limitations. We believe we met this goal, although the attendance was not as high as anticipated in some of the events. The comic classes were cancelled due to lack of registrations. These were among the very few events that required a fee. 2. We targeted 50% of the artists would be local Rosemount or Dakota County artists. This goal was nearly met with 46% being local artists. 3. Provide a wide variety of arts experiences. We believe we met this goal. However, due to budget constraints, we were not able to sponsor the fiddle contest or the multi-cultural day. We did, however, add an art and author fair with 24 participant artists, 90% of which reported high satisfaction with this first time event. 4. Provide educational opportunities to attendees. We believe we achieved this goal in having provided 23 hands-on artistic experiences to groups of all ages. 5. Enable artists to work locally, building their local presence and building a higher profile of the arts in Rosemount. Since we nearly met our goal of having 50% local artists, we believe we also met this goal. The strengths of our process was to have several artists from several artistic disciplines selecting and vetting the participating artists. We were also able to draw on some of the more popular artists from prior ArtBlast years (e.g. ""brought back by popular demand""). We believe that focusing on a broad variety of arts presented and the educational opportunities were positive aspects of our process. Once again, we identified that we need more discipline around our time tables. We need to begin earlier with our fundraising and our marketing. We had these things right in our plan, but life seemed to get in the way, and we ran behind, creating a huge rush and lots of stress at the end of the process. Some of this is a function of having to rely totally on volunteer help. In our debrief, we recommitted to keeping to our schedule in the future. We did reach much of our intended community as far as audience/participants. We were able to observe that much of our audience/participants were older adults. We estimate that approximately 25% of our participants were in this older category. Rosemount is 81% white, 6 Black, 5% Asian, 5% Hispanic. We probably attracted 90-95% white participants. In debriefing with our diversity consultant, we did discuss that the younger people in our community (especially elementary school age) are more diverse than the adult population. It is the adult population that generally make the decisions on family entertainment. We have identified this as an area where we need to continue to work on better outcomes. We planned to have 5 individual artists of color and were only able to engage one artist of color. We have also identified this as an area we need to work on. We were able to attract approximately 5% disabled persons. With respect to our expected Populations Benefitting, we did not attract as many young adults as anticipated. We did have about 25% children and 25% older adults. This was probably due to the programming. We really, in retrospect, did not pay a lot of attention to providing programming specifically to young adults. We did focus on providing programming specifically geared to children and older adults. One metric we could not measure was how many people of lower income we were able to attract as this is not a metric that can be observed. We did market to the Rosemount Family Resource Center and 360 Communities, so we are assuming that the word did get out to that community. We were able to meet our goals of having most of our events free of charge, making ArtBlast accessible to lower income families. We also had very accessible venues where all people would be comfortable and feel welcome -- Central Park Amphitheater, the local library and the Steeple Center, which is a community gathering place, and also houses the Rosemount Area Seniors group. Our most significant outcome was being able to offer a wide variety of arts to about 2500 people, including about 25% older adults and 5% disabled people. By exit interviews, we estimate that more than 90% of participants were satisfied with their experiences at ArtBlast.

Pros: Rosemount Central Park was a beautiful venue for hosting an all-day music festival. Holding the music in conjunction with the art fair doubled the visitors. Lots of volunteers showed up to help out. Cons: Starting at 11:30 was a mistake; it was a hot day and there was insufficient shade in the main amphitheater. Attendance wasn't what we hoped for; post event analysis indicates that this was a factor of heat and time of day. Do Different: Start the event late afternoon/early evening. It would be cooler, the sun angle would result in more shade, and daytime kid’s activities would be over. Look at having fewer bands, but bigger names. Consider splitting event over two nights While we hope to attract larger crowds, we are satisfied that we reached our target audiences; 1) the citizens of Rosemount and surrounding communities, and 2) local musicians.

Cultural connections during the series were achieved by attracting audience members from different cultures and by presenting artists from distinctive world regions. Also, the audience had many opportunities to interact with each other and with the performers. Examples included Brazilian audience members teaching others how to dance and a Caribbean band handing out percussion instruments for audience members to play along. Many of the events presented integrated art forms such as music types, musical instrument craftsmanship, traditional dance styles, storytelling through dance, world cuisine, and costume design. Even within a specific cultural identity, many of the performances represented different aspects of that culture, such as French cabaret singing and Cajun music sung in a French ""patois"". The audience attending our Live at the Rog series has become increasingly diverse, especially at the Global Adventures events.

The music and dance were great. We had to cut one of the open rehearsal events due to a double booking but those sessions were interesting for performers and attendees. The original intent at Salsa Fiesta was to also include world premieres of new music at the rehearsals and this event as part of a supporting award from the Jerome Foundation. That funding was pending though and didn't come through. On the other hand, the core band Charanga Tropical exceeded expectation by returning from a tour to Cuba with a new CD of music. The event became a Salsa Fiesta and CD release event which was very cool and attracted a different kind of attention and word of mouth. What worked was the project design, the idea of gathering the best musicians from the best Latin bands and putting them all onstage. The mix of energy and talent was incredible. What didn't work so well was trying to coordinate so many performers. Two of the three dance groups couldn't put enough members on the floor the present a show. We overbooked the evening of music and dance and some of the numbers that were practiced didn't get played. A lead guest singer called the night of the performance to say she was in Houston, Texas and wouldn't be there. Both the strength and weakness of this project is the variety and number of performers. It creates amazing music but can cause logistical problems. If done over again, would select repertoire and have rehearsals earlier in the Spring. Would consider paying some performers a deposit to have them lock in the date. We did reach our community. We came up just a few dozen short of our attendance goal but our mix of Salsa music fans was right on. Our estimation of population benefiting was correct. Our outreach efforts were a combination of new media (Facebook, emails, etc.) and old media (handing out flyers at other salsa events). This mixed worked really well. We kept our ticket price low, $15/$20 and had a great mix of people to participate. We had some challenges giving away 70 tickets to those who would attend but could not otherwise afford a ticket price.

Participating artist's survey will find out if the artists liked our new four theme entry categories or if we should return to the common media categories that we have used in the past years. The evaluation process will include an artist survey to gauge how well the four-theme categories were accepted. By looking through the registration database we will hopefully determine if there was a significant expansion of artist participation in surrounding metropolitan counties compared to last year.","Our challenge was to provide a realistic, convenient, and artistic venue for local and regional artists to share and exhibit their artwork. The process contained an online application, a pre-event jury process, artwork delivery and showcase venue, in-person judging by three judges, a public reception and awards announcement, delivery of artwork to local businesses and city offices, public display for 30 days, and concluded with the artwork returned to artists. We planned to increase our participating artists and increase the number of pieces of artwork entered through an increased digital advertising and artist contact and new artwork categories. Unfortunately we did not achieve our artistic goals this year. Our number of participating artists dropped from 70 artists in 2015 to 49 artists this year. Our total artwork pieces fell from 111 to 81 pieces this year. After a five year gain, this year was our first downswing. Despite the lower numbers, through artist and community feedback we feel that we had a number of successes. This year we moved the art collection, judging, reception to a more public venue of the Cherrywood Pointe Senior Living Center in Savage. We had great collaboration with the management at Cherrywood which allowed us a 4-days special showing of all the artwork in one highly accessible room. Over 100 residents of this independent living facility were able to view the artwork and participate in the awards ceremony. This did effectively increase of community contact and awareness to a new group of people and we received many positive comments from them. For the first year we were able to utilize our new location at the Savage Library for artwork pickup (just across the street from the Cherrywood) and artists got a chance to visit our gallery and classrooms. We expect this to have a positive impact to the awareness of our group and its mission of bringing art to the community. Although we are still researching to determine why our overall artist and artwork numbers were down, we suspect, but can’t yet confirm, that it could be related to one or more of these factors: Moving the competition and show dates back one month from our previous time frames. Changing our artwork categories from medium based to artistic focus/content. Raising our entry fees by approximately 20%. Reducing the amount of printed advertising through local newspapers. We believe some of these factors may have adversely affected our planned and expected growth. We are continuing to reach out to the artists and the community to solicit feedback to determine future changes. It is quite possible there were just too many changes this year and we may need to return one or more factors to previous conditions. We continue to have growing support from the business community, the local artist community and within the Savage Arts Council and have confidence we can continue to offer artistic opportunities. We successfully reached a bigger cross section of the community by moving our awards reception to a more public display at Cherrywood. This also increased the number of people who had a chance to see the artwork. We had approximately 70% of the artists attend the awards ceremony, up from previous years. At the previous location (the Environmental Learning Center) the artwork as up only for the day of the ceremony and even though it is a great display location, it limited exposure due the limited time. This was the first year we could leave the entire display up and accessible for 4 days during the judging and ceremony times. Effectively this gave us an additional community venue during the show. Our estimated population benefitting was as we predicted even though we believe there was an increase in the two areas of individuals with disabilities and individuals in institutions. However not enough of a change to warrant a 25% increase in any one area. This year we reached out the American Indian population through the Mystic Lake community hoping to involve them more with our competition and show venue. They indicated an interest and informed their community but did not actively participate in a display venue. We look forward to continuing to build this relationship. We did get a few more participating artists from that cultural group. Use of the Cherrywood Pointe facility to host the entire competition, show and ceremony in a more public place that had the extra added benefit of providing accessibility to hundreds of people who may not have otherwise had the chance. This year over 60% of our participating artists were new to our competition and show up from the typical 40% of previous years.",,2000,"Other, local or private",6000,,"Heather Mathews, Richard Mittelstadt, Joy Burckhard, Tracey Sandoval, Darrell Tangen, Lucy LeMay, Meissa Arnold, June Phillipps, Susan Shroyer",0.00,"Savage Area Arts Community","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the tenth annual Juried Art Competition and Show, a visual arts exhibition for both professional and amateur visual artists.

Our Artists got to interact directly with the audience as the story was being told. During the post-show discussion with the audience, many patrons said they learned a lot about the shows and were able to reflect on how it impacted their lives and their own stories. Several audience members talked directly with the cast about how it influenced them or challenged their frames of reference. There was also much discussion after the shows with comments such as, “why isn’t this done more often?” amongst both cast AND patrons. We successfully helped the theatre-going community get closer to the issues being addressed by the musicals by getting closer to the material and physically closer to the acting community. Many people said it was their first time seeing the shows/ hearing the stories come to life. Second Fiddle also gave the audience get a better understanding of how a show is produced by giving a brief speech beforehand and also fostering audience/ actor discussion at intermission and after the show. We also provided Twin Cities’ performers with an opportunity to pursue dream roles and get direct feedback from the audience after performances. Twin Cities' music Director Kyle Picha got to play Gordon Schwinn, dream role for him in A New Brain. Kyle is usually utilized behind the piano and he got to show audiences his singing and acting chops, to which Cherry and Spoon said ""It was a treat to find out he's also a wonderful leading man."" It helped to send a follow-up email to cast members to ask what they enjoyed about the Second Fiddle experience and also what we could improve upon. Loads of people asked for more rehearsal time, but unfortunately without a more expensive contract with Actors Equity we can't ask actors to rehearse additional hours. However, we found that lots of people, Equity and Non-Equity volunteered to meet on their own time outside of Second Fiddle rehearsal to work on the material. This ultimately helped the shows, so our music directors have all made an announcement during the first rehearsal telling actors if they want additional rehearsal time that the MD would be open to helping outside of rehearsal hours. Second Fiddle successfully reached the community it intended to and we were always looking to expand our circle of artists and audience. We were aiming for those who loved musicals and wouldn’t get a chance to see them otherwise as well artists who want to pursue dream roles and learn new shows. A dramaturg was hired at the top of the season to do 3 informational packets for directors and cast about the show as well as program inserts for the audience. We gave the audience an informational flyer in the program of a shows history and the director also gave a brief history before the show. There was a great energy from the audience and artists alike that people were just excited to hear the story come to life. We also found that having an opportunity for audience to speak directly with actors opened up individual conversations about the show, process and story. Giving the audience the option to read about the show at their leisure was a treat, and some audience members actually emailed the artistic director after the production stating ""It was so nice to have additional facts to look at when we got home"". We made our project accessible by considering submissions of actors who may play against ""type casting"". One of our actors in A New Brain is supposed to be played by a man, but we gave the opportunity to a woman. Also, we reached out to a senior play-reading group who then attended every show. This created a lovely diversity of age in our audience. We are hoping to continue to have diversity onstage, both in age and race - giving opportunity to those who might otherwise get passed over for certain roles. We had 319 people total attend and were pleased that 1/3 to 1/2 of that audience was made up of seniors from various areas of the Twin Cities community who were just as eager as the younger crowd to learn about these rare musicals. We have a fantastic outcome this year. 50% of our artists this year were NEW artists to Second Fiddle (22 out of 43 artists were first time ""Fiddlers"".) We also saw our record attendance at August's performance with 175 audience members. 100% of artists said that they would love to be in or involved with another Second Fiddle show in the future and that it was beneficial for them to participate.",,3200,"Other, local or private",8200,,"James McGrath, Holly Dolejsi, Robbie Droddy, Rob Goudy",0.00,"Second Fiddle Productions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to produce a series of staged readings of three musicals that examine social issues relevant today, including A New Brain, Chess and 110 in the Shade.

We will be using program participant count and the audience count at the showcase. In addition, we will be surveying all the participants and staff.","Overall, we felt like our artistic goals were met. In three days, 27 women came together to learn an instrument, form a band, see performances of local musicians, take workshops on recording and gear, and play a showcase. Every woman that attended Ladies Rock Camp performed in the final showcase and 100% of participants reported back that their confidence in playing in a band and playing with others increased either a lot (rated 4 out of 5) or a ton (rated 5 out of 5). Although we did not reach our goal of having 36 participants, we still increased our participants from 21 in 2015 to 27 this year. Additionally, we increased the number of bands formed from 4 in 2015 to 6 this year. We also increased the amount of female instructors from last year. In 2015, we had 8 folks who worked all-day for the weekend and 4 folks who worked during instrument class only. This year, we changed all staff to a full-day position and we had 14 staff instructors. This helped us create a great student to teacher ratio (around 3:1) which helped the students increase their knowledge on their instrument and on songwriting. We also vamped up our curriculum and had written out precise goals for each instrument class and band rehearsal. Because of this, the teachers were able to create an environment to help the students learn in the fast time of three days. We were also able to create a very welcoming, safe and empowering environment which is something that the participants noted and applauded. 100% of participants indicated that they would come to this camp again as well as recommend it to others. We also have some areas of improvement for next year. We got a lot of feedback from participants stating that they would like more instrument instruction time. So, we are going to offer the options for campers to sign up for private instruction before and after camp on Saturday and before camp on Sunday. That will give them more time to hone in their instrument skills at a more intimate level with the instructor. Also, there were a few moments where campers’ attitudes were tricky for teachers to navigate. For example, we had a situation where a student was getting frustrated in her band because she had a more advanced skill level then the rest of her band. The teachers felt like they didn’t know how best to handle the situation and so they ignored a lot of her behavior. Next year, we plan to have teachers role play different scenarios that might come up during camp at our teacher training. This will help the teachers practice different conflict resolution methods. Overall, we felt like we provided an outstanding experience for our participants. 100% of participants noted that they would continue playing music as a result of this camp. In fact, one the bands that was formed at camp, Hot Flash, has continued playing as a band together. And, many other participants have continued on with private instruction from the teachers they worked with at camp. We felt like we were very successful in reaching our intended community. We had initially intended to reach 36 participants with the thought that approximately 50% of participants would be between the ages of 40-55, 35% would identify as LGBTQIA and 30% would have never played their instrument before. We ended up serving 27 participants. Although we had less sign ups than we expected, we still grew from last year. Out of those participants, 75% of them were between the ages of 40-55. We think this is fantastic because there are very few programs dedicated to teaching arts to women of this age group-- and no music programs that we know of that do this. Also, 42% of program participants identified as LGBTQIA which means our outreach to that community was well worth it. 100% of participants reported that the camp felt safe for LGTBQIA folks so are excited to continue work in the LGBTQIA community as an artistic resource and outlet. Our teachers were also a diverse community. Approximately 45% of teachers identify as LBTQIA. Additionally they had the age range of 22-57. One area of improvement we have for this program is to create more racial and ethnic diversity. Only 8% of our teachers and 8% of our students identified as a race/ethnicity other than white/Caucasian. We are in the process of creating a diversity and inclusion committee on our board to discuss this issue and create strategies to be more accessible to communities of color. Overall, we felt like we did a great job at making this program open to all participants. No participant was turned away due to an inability to pay and 20% of participants received financial aid and/or sliding fee. Additionally, we made the program open to participants of all instrumental ability. About 42% of participants reported that they had never played their instrument before participating in camp. Many of these folks were able to borrow an instrument after camp as well, so their learning can be continued. 27 women attended camp and each participant wrote at least one song that they performed at the final showcase. 42% of these participants had never played their instrument before camp, 39% had some instrument experience (6 months-2 years) and 19% had a lot of experience (3+ years) on their instrument. 100% of participants reported that they would participate in this program again.",,11475,"Other, local or private",16475,,"Lisa Whitney, Candi Ince, Shannon McCarville, Jennifer Smith",0.00,"She Rock She Rock","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Ladies Rock Camp, a three-day music camp for women ages 19 and older.

Artistic Director Matthew Culloton and the four section leaders will evaluate the artistic product throughout the entire preparation and performance process.","The Singers' Composers Lab was one of the artistic highlights of the 2015-2016 Season. The choir presented more new works than originally intended, sang for a very appreciative audience, included new technologies into the concert, and performed at a world class level. It was an evening that connected our audiences to the composers and music-making process in ways we had not yet accomplished in our subscription concert programming. The Singers successfully created an experience that was part concert and part workshop. The composers spoke to the audience before their new works were performed, and Artistic Director Matthew Culloton also shared on-the-spot insight into the works. Instead of printing scores for each audience members, a 12x12 ft screen and projector shared the music with the audience in an attempt to save the resource of paper. Audience feedback was very positive because of the intimate Sundin Hall venue at Hamline. The use of this technology is being explored for future use as both an environmentally-friendly choice, as well as a cost savings to the organization. Our guest composers who also shared comments with the audience were Craig Carnahan, Timothy Takach, Linda Kachelmeier, and Tesfa Wondemagegnehu. The choir shared the world premiere of newly-composed works written for this occasion. The choir also premiered a new work by Robert Sieving and a collection of pieces written for The Singers by former Composer-in-Residence Joshua Shank. The programming and pacing of the night was very successful, and audience members were very excited by the diversity of music performed on a ""new music"" concert. No changes to the programming aspect will be necessary in the future. Craig Carnahan's new work allowed for a collaboration with members of the Twin Cities Gay Men’s Chorus and OneVoice Mixed Chorus, two of the metro's LGBTQ organizations. Carnahan's new work was about the human rights atrocities toward the homosexual population in Uganda, and the work's librettist was also in attendance. In the future, we would like even more collaborative time built into the rehearsal process because it was such a positive experience for us to join singers from other ensembles for such a powerful project. The inclusion of a work that tackles these social issues deepened the experience of our artists and our audience. The other strengths of the project dealt with the artistic ability to mount this project in a relatively compact period of time. In fact, in the future, we may explore a similar project and rehearse in a more compact timeframe. This would allow the organization to keep the project on the calendar while minimizing the impact on the remainder of the season. We know that many audience members were insistent that we keep repeating Composers Lab on an annual basis, so we would like to consider that in the near future. The audience for this event was as diverse a population as any we have sung for this season. That diversity was represented in age, race, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status. We are proud to report that the audience, artists, and collaborators reflected who we hoped to impact while developing this program. The one difference from the proposed plan was fewer 19-24 year olds in the audience than we estimated. Our primary marketing outside of the postcards and social media efforts is our relationship with Minnesota Public Radio, and it is likely that the demographics of listeners to that station do not reach a lot of the 19-24 year old audience members. Another reason for diversity in the audience came out of the premiere of Craig Carnahan's ""Until the Struggle is Won"" and the musical collaboration with the Twin Cities Gay Men's Chorus and One Voice Mixed Chorus. Aside from members of those ensembles, we also had a number of people from Wingspan Ministry, a local group that actively supports the homosexual community in Uganda, especially offering support during the time of human rights atrocities that are occurring there now. We believe collaborations of this sort in the future will provide more meaningful musical experiences for artists and audience alike. Nearly 150 audience members and 70 artists participated in this inaugural Composers Lab program. Access to four composers and the conductor during the event heightened the audience's experience and access to new music.",,11389,"Other, local or private",16389,,"Maureen Armstrong, Craig Carnahan, Alan Beck, Kathy Donlan Tunseth, Connie Foote, Liesl Koehnen, Justin Madsen, Luther Ranheim, Jackie Steele, Erika Gesme, Matthew Culloton",0.00,"Singers Minnesota Choral Artists AKA The Singers-Minnesota Choral Artists","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to support The Composers Lab, a concert and workshop event that puts new music on stage in front of an audience that is holding the music and taking part in a running dialogue with the artists.

The three artistic goals of remounting EX were to: intimately engage audiences in a casual setting by foregoing confessional or memoir formats to explore themes of family, memory, and loss through an unusual structure based on a contemporary alternative song, provide our audiences with a local opportunity to engage with challenging, meaningful, interdisciplinary devised work, and to provide the artists involved with the challenges of adapting a site-based work to a new site. These artistic goals were achieved. The necessarily small houses (limited to 20 audience members) allowed an intimacy that aligned with the ""sharing"" nature of the performance, and in part due to the performance's more abstract structure, the audience reported empathy and understanding rather than embarrassment or awkward discomfort. The adaptation of a site-created piece for a different site was successful in that we allowed the new site to shift and change the performance, rather than attempting to imitatively recreate the original production. No changes needed to be made. Audiences who hadn't seen the original production came to this production, along with many who had seen the original and were interested in either seeing it again, seeing how it had changed, or both. Given that this was our first performance in our new shared space, in a new neighborhood, our audience didn't reflect the local demographic as much as we had hoped. More preparation and outreach would help in the future. Standing at the door and welcoming everyone who came by helped both to foster a real accessibility and sense of inclusion as well as to begin the performance's intimate exchange. There were some audience members, however, who found this openness uncomfortable and avoided the contact as much as possible.

The program director will evaluate audience composition and numbers with assistance from staff assigned to survey audiences to measure whether the two outcomes above are achieved.","While there have been many good Songs of Hope projects, this was one of our best in terms of artistic quality and artistic experiences provided to audiences. In a few other years, we've had a few more countries but with very talented young performers from Italy, Russia, Argentina, Colombia, Guatemala, Jamaica, Turkey, Israel, Vietnam, and China, we were able to give our audiences a good slice of music from other countries to enjoy, digest, and learn from. Moreover, the concert program was well-paced with good variety in the kinds of songs, in the accompanying dances and movement, and in the mix of vocal parts. Audiences at most concerts gave a standing ovation and in post-concert feedback reported a satisfying and unique artistic experience. Overall, there were 72 performers on stage, including 39 new performers aged 8-14, 15 performers returning from past years, 5 adults from five different countries, 5 interns aged 16-18, and 8 staff members aged 18 and above. The company learned and performed 35 songs from 14 countries in 10 languages. Framing the global musical selections were English language songs selected to accomplish certain goals: a medley of songs about rain and sun just to get audiences thinking about the effects of climate change on water resources around the globe, songs with messages about people getting along and living peacefully, a song by a Hmong-American composer to remind audiences that people in the United States come from many different backgrounds, etc. The most common audience reaction: In these troubling times with recent events like the Orlando shootings, the bombings at the Istanbul airport (which occurred just nine days after our Turkish performers went through the same airport), and the Nice truck attack (which occurred the day after the father of one of our Italian staff members was in Nice), the messages of Songs of Hope are more needed than ever. The project reached exactly the mix of the twin Cities community that we proposed. This included adults with developmental disabilities at three agency locations, seniors in five nursing homes, low-income and new immigrant families at four concerts in Saint Paul, two workshops for at-risk youth, and concerts in four suburban locations. The audience at Phalen Lake (through a partnership with East Side Arts Council) grew, as did the audience at a North Dale location. Diversity goals were met though we are in discussions about increasing youth outreach in 2017 and 2018. Overall, the following outreach goals were met: people with disabilities, seniors, low-income audiences, new-immigrant participants, and general audiences. We would like in have at least two more concerts for suburban audiences in 2017 and 2018. 2,200 people attended 16 concerts and activities in diverse venues. 4 youth from new-immigrant families participated in the project and performed on stage.",,72660,"Other, local or private",77660,,"Judy Morrison, Ginny Cone, Hannah Hoes, Fred Perez, David Badgley, Jim Keane, Gary Pederson, Bethany Gladhill, David Pizzuto, John Choi",0.00,"Sounds of Hope, Ltd.","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the Songs of Hope Summer Tour, an international concert project comprised of youth aged 9-16 presenting twenty or more concerts of music from around the world.

The quality of the concerts was outstanding. 86% of choir members responding to a survey rated the concert as ""better than expected,"" and passed on positive comments from themselves and from audience members. The chorale had adequate time to learn the music, with weekly rehearsals and practice files for work at home. The artistic challenge for the choir was learning not only the notes but proper vocal tone, dynamics, and emotional presentation of the work, and significant time was devoted to these areas during rehearsals. Significant time was also devoted to learning the proper German pronunciation for Mendelssohn Psalm 42. Grant funds allowed the hiring of outstanding soloists and orchestral musicians, which added greatly to the professionalism of the performances. The Mendelssohn required a men's quartet. The hired soloists for the quartet also sang the rest of the concert with the full chorale, which added to the strength of our tenor and bass sections. Everything occurred as planned and there would be no significant changes in planning and rehearsing for a future similar project. We feel we successfully reached our intended community, in choir participants (44), local orchestral (22) and vocal soloist (5) involvement and audience. Total audience was 243, compared to 250 predicted. We advertised in local and city-wide newspapers, using Facebook and online calendars, mailing postcards to previous concert attendees, putting up posters in local businesses and at the concert venues, and emailing our patron list. We asked membership to send a prepared email to their friends and also asked all Facebook users to re-post concert information on their pages and also to ask their Facebook friends to ""Like"" our page.

Participation, both as a musician and as an audience member was accessible to all who wished to participate. The verbal response from patrons was positive, with standing ovations at each venue. Many members commented in a survey that they loved the chosen concert repertoire. One member responded ""The music was challenging yet beautiful. It felt like quite an accomplishment to learn and perform it."" The survey also collected suggestions from members about how to build audience, and allowed each member to voice general suggestions about what they liked and disliked about the concerts.

Performers and listeners explored the indescribable powers of music that give us inspiration, motivation, and fantasy through the incredible works by Daniel Brinsmead, Paul Mealor, Eriks Ešenvalds, Eric Whitacre, and Daniel Elder. Sweet Dreams included the second annual Young Composer Initiative. This program created an annual call for scores from composers age 25 or younger with the recipient’s work that was performed on the Sweet Dreams program. This project received a high volume of praise from singers and audience members alike in the music selected for the program. The programming of music creative and many commented on the wonderful flow of the program. The piece ""We Can Mend the Sky"" by Jake Runestad was selected to close the concert and this finale tied in the dream-like theme to the practical application of helping others in our community obtain their dreams. Therefore from an artistic perspective, a high level of music making that was appreciated by our audience members and ensemble members were achieved. The project was also successful in that ensemble members evaluated their level of preparedness to be very high as the entered the concert series. In 2015, the first Young Composer's Competition was created and we were delighted to receive 14 applications. This year, we received 60 submissions from young composers primarily in the USA, but also from around the world. This boost can be attributed to more exposure on choralnet.org and a posting on the American Composer Forum's website. This season, our goal was to transition the family concerts from being hosted in a church to libraries with the intent on reaching a broader population as well as targeting communities that Metropolitan Regional Arts Council describes as Distinct Groups: below the poverty line, individuals with limited English proficiency, and youth at risk. This part of the project was not as successful as we struggled to find libraries that would champion our project and promote it to the youth at their library. However, once the performance was completed, the library staff was overly enthusiastic about our project and very thankful for us to have come. Both concerts were scheduled in a way that would target students when they were naturally at the library, however both concerts were under-attended in respects to our goal outreach. We believe that this outreach has great potential and hope that the libraries will help us continue to grow attendance and impact for the future. Sweet Dreams was successful in providing free concerts to our community at a high level of music artistry. This has been a trademark of The Summer Singers. The support of the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council grant along with a growing Sustainer group of financial supporters and work of fundraising by the board allowed Sweet Dreams to be completely open and accessible to everyone. Sweet Dreams was successful in reaching our longtime concert supporters with positive concert reviews. Our outreach efforts, specifically the family concerts, were successful at reaching a demographic that is diverse from the race/ethnic background of the majority of our traditional concert attendees. The attendance at our Family Concerts put those that would identify as white/not Hispanic in the minority, however over the span of the entire project, this did not account for at least 25% of the benefitting population. Our marketing strategy for the Family Concerts has been to try and take the music to where a more diverse population may be located. This creates the challenge, especially at the libraries, of finding the best time that the library will be full and leaves the numbers of audience members a little more up to chance. We need to develop more strategies for attracting audience members in the future. The attitude of the ensemble was positive about the project. 85% of singers responded that the season was ""about what I expected"" or ""don't change a thing"" when surveying their overall experience. When asking returning singers how they would rate the level of preparation this year compared to last year, over 85% responded with a 4 or 5, with 5 being excellent and 1 being poor.",,11550,"Other, local or private",16550,,"Helen Lockhart, David Afdahl, Linda Neuman, Patrick Coleman, John Hanson, Dave Nickel, Rebecca Nystuen, Sandie Anderson",0.00,"The Summer Singers, Inc.

We would have liked to have an additional 1-2 weeks of rehearsal before tech. While we saw no decrease we were unsuccessful in our goal of increasing our audience attendance by 10%. We are still trying to determine the cause, however, Swandive had the opening production of the ARTshare program at the Southern Theater in 2015, it is possible that this inflated our numbers. Some other possible reasons include time of year (the run of our show occurred during the first few weeks of nice weather of the summer season), show selection, show title and market saturation. We ran a very successful marketing campaign and saw a slight uptick in community diversity. We will continue in that vein and use feedback from audience surveys to help shape future marketing. We were able to offer a pay what you can night, encouraging people of all economic backgrounds to participate and we still believe the ARTshare model, offered at The Southern Theater, provides some of the best accessibility options to audience members as well.

We were also able to offer opportunities to newer, ""up and coming"" artists which allowed them to play before large audiences.

We also received compliments and thanks that we were offering such high quality performances to the public for no charge. One of our goals for this program is to serve some of the underserved communities in the park's service area. One of those audiences is senior citizens, who don't attend other park programming in numbers representative of their percentage of the surrounding community.

We also hope to attract an increase in participation by members of recent immigrant communities in the area. On a night where we invited a Salsa band to play, our observations of the audience indicated a larger number of Spanish speaking audience members than at other concerts.

Attending artists were exceptional. They 1) put on professional sets that exceeded their experience, 2) drew impressed crowds in part due to their effort marketing their art (their music), 3) engaged in thoughtful conversations with headlining artists about how to be an artist, how to work with other artists, and realities of amateur versus professional pursuit of art, including touring, recording, practicing, and performing. The pre-show Q and A sessions were a huge hit among the promising young artists and participating headlining musicians. The concerts were exceptional and well-received in-person, on social media, and in correspondence after the show. It's a series we feel like we need to continue and improve. The challenges primarily were securing headlining artists. Though we book 100 show year, many with professional headliners, the cancelation rate for headliners of the Young Musician Series was astonishing and caused us this summer to ask for (and be granted) an extension for our grant period. Instead of booking artists for specific Young Musician Series dates, when we do this again we would 1) go through our normal booking process, 2) identify certain headliners who are interested in our nonprofit's mission as well as working with young people, then 3) turn their already booked show into a Young Musician Series event. We would essentially have a fund of money we would use to turn a concert we already have contracted to turn it into a Young Musician Series show. -Yes and no, we were able to reach many young local artists but we were not able to reach a diverse group of people. A large part of this is due the concert genres that performed (metal and punk) versus those which canceled (hip-hop, hip-hop, pop, and singer-songwriter). The genres whose headliners canceled have a larger percentage of performers and fans who are women and people of color. The estimated population that would benefit versus the population that actually did not change, it was still primarily young people and largely white. We did, however, see fewer women and people of color than we would if our entire concert series had happened as we planned, which would have additionally included two hip-hop shows, a pop show, and a singer-songwriter show. Community diversity is something we work on in our conversations with patrons, in outreach, and marketing. In the context of the Young Musician Series we think the primary failure was of a reduced series run, rather than our outreach efforts. We put out open calls for our Performer Meetings and advertised the spots for the Young Musician Series. We widely advertised the concerts for potential attendees and saw greater than anticipated attendance. We averaged 219 people were at each show instead of our goal of 150 people at each show with 26 individual young musicians. 100% of individuals artists rated the series as ""Good"" or ""Very Good""--almost 70% said ""Very Good.""

At the end of the final performance, we will conduct a brief survey of the children and audience that seeks input on the arts camp and performance experience as well as suggestions for future arts camps.","Goal 1- We did “provide children from low income families and who have had limited to no exposure to the arts, with a high quality, sustained, hands-on creative learning experience.” Over ten afternoons during the first two weeks of August children had sustained daily opportunities and repeated opportunities over the ten days to devise, create, and execute a circus-themed project. BareBones Productions brought their unique multi-faceted approach to bringing out the energy, creativity and curiosity in every participant. They did this by using a themed approach and designing processes that use many techniques and have many hands-on opportunities, by engaging gross-motor and fine-motor skills in alternation, and by creating large collaborative pieces that require many hands to complete. The biggest process challenge is to accommodate the developmental levels of all participants and to keep everyone engaged throughout each session, especially the very youngest children. This is accomplished by having multiple activities occurring at multiple stations simultaneously and having frequent rotations between stations. It is also accomplished by giving children choices as to what activities they want to engage in. Goal 2. “Children will develop basic technical skills needed for arts expression.” Children had multiple opportunities to use various media and tools.” They made large scale animal puppets/costumes (tigers, lions, gorillas, bears, and a giant cyclops by: sculpting clay molds; covering them with multiple layers of papier mache; painting the masks; and attaching them to a costume body. They made a 4’X6’ ‘clown car’ from cardboard and painted it. They built and decorated stage sets and backdrops. They developed performance routines with the animal costumes and also a ‘fire’ dance. They walked on stilts (many for the first time). Stilt walking is an annual activity that is integrated into all of our arts camps. It is almost beyond words to describe the joy and sense of accomplishment on the faces of each child as he/she masters this performance skill. Goal 3. “Our hope is that this exposure will spur children to want to have more involvement in the arts as they grow and open their thinking to the arts as a possible career path.” We likely won’t know much about individual outcomes for this goal for some time. However, we are working on transforming one of our out-of-school-time programs from one with a general academic enrichment model to have more of a focus on arts and humanities. We hope to provide even more regular exposure to the arts for children. The Arts Camp occurred on-site at and was designed to serve the affordable housing community of Liberty Plaza and the surrounding Summit-University neighborhood in which it is located. The Liberty Plaza Arts Camp served exactly the community and individual participants we intended it to serve- children in grades K-5 (and some older students who helped out) from low income families living in this community and neighborhood. All participants were from minority cultures that included Somali, Oromo, African American, and multi-racial families. The camp was free for all participants; the spaces we used were fully physically accessible. With many of the activities occurring outdoors in an area that is visible to much of the housing community, people were drawn out of their homes with curiosity about the activities occurring near their front doors. New participants joined the camp in this way and parents came out to observe and some to help. Every enrolled child, regardless of age, size, or ability mastered the skill of walking on stilts during the arts camp period. By observation every child who had never been on stilts was walking independently within four days. We achieved our target for average daily attendance for all enrollees at 75%.

The strengths of my artist process was having a clear vision as to the performance. The challenge of the artistic process was accurately communicating the vision for the production to all involved.

Further, we would begin marketing efforts for the production with in the first month of its start. Did you successfully reach your intended community? Yes, our intended community was successfully reached: The age of those reached ranged from ten to eighty years old. We were able to reach such a wide range by contacting local retirement communities and schools. In part owing to the diversity of our cast and crew our audience members showed great diversity in race, age and ability. In order to make our project accessible to all who might wish to participate: We contacted retirement communities, Centers for the blind, schools and organizations specializing in serving people with disabilities. For future productions in order to improve attendance marketing efforts for retirement communities should begin earlier and time and dates should be discussed with communities of retirees and people with disabilities before printed advertisement is produced.

We worked with over 20 youth with and without disabilities to create art for 20+ sessions. Our goal was 20 students and 16 sessions. We worked with two mentor artists to complete several projects, including a mural that we gave to the high school for a lasting contribution from these students. 2. Our end of program show/sale was organized by the UROC students. They were aware from the start that the art they created would be sold in the sale, and they made sure to tell all of their family and friends to come to the sale. They hung posters all around the school, and on the day of the sale, they were all there representing UROC. Several students helped count money, make change, and add the total of purchases made by customers. 3. The mural was on display at our sale and then presented to the high school as a lasting contribution from UROC. (Unified Recreation of the Orono Community) Overall, we achieved our goals set out in our proposal. We were able to work with the artistic strengths of all of our UROC students and allow them to work in a variety of mediums on a wide range of projects during the sessions. This allowed the students and peer mentors to be exposed to multiple art mediums and at the end of the sessions, allowed that wide range of completed projects to be displayed and sold. Some strengths of our artistic processes is that both the UROC students and the peer mentors were very involved in what we were doing. They were excited to try art projects they have never done before. They were also very excited to have the opportunity to share their art with the peers, teachers, and family members. Our challenges during the artistic process were getting all students to participate at the same time. We had such great peer helpers that worked really hard to engage the students in what we were doing. Another challenge was that the UROC students wanted to take home their artwork after each session. But, once they saw the sale at the end, they were all very excited that their artwork was on display for everyone to see. Our intended audience was youth from the communities served by Orono School District including Maple Plain, Long Lake, Independence, Orono, Minnetonka Beach, and Medina. We provided an integrated arts experience for middle school and high school age students with developmental differences, allowing those students to work with their hands to create art while being expressive and creative. Because our sale was open to all community and family members, high school and middle school staff, and all students, we were able to include the diversity of our community in this arts experience. The UROC students hung up flyers around the high school and talked about it to their teachers. Additionally, we did the same at the middle school. Scholarships were provided for those who needed financial support in order to participate in the program. Additionally, high school peer partners were recruited for their interest in the program and caring hearts toward the students they worked alongside. Over 150 students, staff, family and community members attended. A mural was created and gifted to the high school. The students experienced many different types of art mediums. 100% of participants said they wished they had more time to do more art projects!

Flute Fest is a collaboration of young and old flutists and the integration of new and diverse styles of music and performing. The biggest challenge for Upper Midwest Flute Association is to fit all of these events into one day. If we were to change one thing about the event, it would be to hold it over two days instead of one. Our goals for Flute Fest 2016 were to: 1) bring students, amateurs, and professionals together for workshops and concerts; 2) engage listening audience with presentations of solo flute recitals and workshops; 3) commission a new work for flute; 4) present health related sessions/yoga workshop and body mapping class; 6) encourage young players to reach new goals/two competitions/ a non-competitive workshop; 7) present teaching ideas and strategies/chamber music and solo repertoire masterclasses; 8) present a concert and masterclass by a guest artist. Flute Fest 2016 brought together student, amateur and professional flutists for a day of concerts, workshops, and competitions at Plymouth Congregational Church on Saturday, April 9, 2016. Audiences were treated to a flute recital and a master class by Jonathan Keeble, Professor of Flute at the University of Illinois, Champagne-Urbana and concerts and pedagogy sessions presented by Midwest flute performers and health professionals.

We did reach our intended community; audience, participants and artists. We reached flutists and audience of a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds. To make the project accessible to all, we offered a very low admission fee and scholarships when needed. A significant outcome resulted in our sessions for members to play in flute ensembles.

This happened with resounding success. Artistic goals with this production were 1) to offer an opportunity for less experienced performers to work with more experienced; Of the cast and crew, one crew person had no experience; two dancers had limited experience, and one had dance experience in a different setting. The musicians had vast experience, the oldest member was able to share worldly experience with the youngest musician; the choreographer had 18 years' professional experience; two dancers, mid-level experience, and vocalists had vast experience. 2) To create a live, multi-arts production; This happened, as poetry, theatre, and dance combined; 3) To present Langston Hughes as not only a poet and “artistic figure”, but to show his importance within American history; This was the case; the show offered an education to many; 5) To bring the work of a Black poet/ historical figure to new audiences, emphasis on younger audiences, and people familiar/unfamiliar with his work. The age range of attendees, and performers, was vast, and comments from participants and show attendees indicated the unique way his work was conveyed. Success was determined through attendance, audience response, and positive experience of the performers. Comments from the performers: Janay Henry (dancer): ""The show is lively and full of energy, and I enjoyed every bit of this experience with the cast and crew."" Tazz Germaine Lindsey (dancer): ""The most collaborative piece of work I've ever participated in. Each person brought in a set of skills and we all left with new additions to our sets."" Jovan Valentino (dancer): ""A cast full of talented, humble people sharing their love for Langston Hughes. Richard Woods (actor, Langston Hughes): ""Warm Dark Dusk was a great cast to be a part of.

The project’s success was based on 1) the quality of the show, as determined by attendance, and by the positive experience of the performers involved; which most definitely occurred; 2) the positive experience of creating and performing around the written works of a well-known poet and historical figure; All performers felt that rehearsals were like a class! 3) The creation of a new piece surrounded a famous person’s words; 4) financially, the company was able to report good box office receipts, (full houses every performance!) and lastly 5) the community involvement brought about by the experience of working in a multi-arts production, and whether that was positive. Response to the show was overwhelmingly positive, and was well represented in the media. Evaluation of the project’s success was based on the above, as well as audience surveys, discussions with the participants, and post meetings with the business’ personnel. The individuals this project served included 1) inner city Southside Minneapolis residents, as attendees, largely working class and many lower socio-economic residents; 2) artists who have a minimal degree of experience, as well as more experienced performers; 3) participants including production people in the fields of graphic arts, multi-media production, lighting, and business. Typically, the company has drawn from the communities of Powderhorn, Central, Lyndale, Phillips, and Bryant. Within those neighborhoods, demographics are roughly 30% African American, 10% American Indian, 10% Latino, 40% Caucasian, and 10% other. These demographics make up the audiences for all productions. Actors and production crew with the company, for the last three shows, have averaged the following demographics: 70% African American; 25% Caucasian; 2% Asian American, and 3% Latino. Within those demographics, 8% were over 65, and 3% were physically handicapped. The project definitely benefitted the communities described above by providing a new educational, historical theatrical experience on the Southside, and benefitted the performers by offering a unique interactive performing experience, and the opportunity to learn about, and perform, a show surrounding the works of a famous African American poet. Community members have typically supported the company’s production through volunteer work in fundraising and participation with the shows, as well as many individuals who have donated faithfully through financial means. A downtown business offered free rehearsal space when space at a local park fell through. 720 people attended the show, representing a good cross section of races and ages. Discussion with attendees after each show indicated that 1) a vast number of audience members had never attended a mixed media production such as this, and that 2) many people were unaware of Langston Hughes' work, and 3) were extremely impressed by the quality of the production.",,6700,"Other, local or private",11700,,"Judy Cooper Lyle, Lois LeBre, Melinda Sandoval Morvari, Penny Masuku, Pippi Ardennia, Pat Perryman",0.00,"The Urban Spectrum Theatre Company","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to produce an original work based on the poetry of Langston Hughes, featuring local musicians and a mix of amateur and professional dancers and theater artists.

Post-event interviews showed that 90% of participants indicated the artistic process increased their appreciation for the arts and benefitted their personal growth and mental health recovery. We will gather a count of both participants and audience members. We will use surveys, one-on-one interviews, and a post-performance feedback session to gather responses from participants and audience members.","We did achieve both artistic goals set down in our proposal. The first goal was around the performance development process, specifically, that it should: 1) be professional; 2) challenge the creativity of members; 3) expand member appreciation for theater arts and collaborative work; and 4) broaden the creative perspectives of the artists. The work was very professional, led by History Theatre Teaching Artists who each had extensive professional experience and substantial experience working at turning real-life stories into theatrical performances – work they do regularly with the History Theatre’s education programs, where that is the focus. Their ability to maintain a professional working environment depended on their success at gaining the trust of Vail Place members. It’s a real credit to the Teaching Artists that they developed working relationships close enough to, as one put it: ""Allow us to ask questions and push the members to try things they might not try without a belief that we’re all in this together,"" Brian. This brief story from one of the Teaching Artists about her goals going into the project reflects how much the Teaching Artists asked of the members, and also how much the members got from the experience. ""I really wanted to dig into and encourage more specificity in the writing, to make it content rich, and to encourage the members to get comfortable crafting performances. Evidence of performance crafting came when one member dressed in a hospital gown and walked downstage to deliver her monologue about Electrconvulsive Therapy, while two other members, 'cast' as doctors, helped her sit down while giving the audience the definition of shock therapy. The whole thing had been crafted originally as a story, but then the member who wrote it was very open to letting the 'doctors' impart the technical information she wanted as part of her story, and was also very open to changing the voice of the story from past to present tense, which made it more like a monologue. We were also able to get another member who swore she would never, ever, ever, get up and read her stuff, get up and read her stuff,"" Annie. The participating members unanimously expressed appreciation for the project: ""The experience helped me live beyond my comfort zone! Getting these stories out has impacted my personal growth and my mental health recovery big time. It’s been very cathartic. I’ve built confidence and learned to better open up to the “real world,” Kathy. ""Writing in the theater project has been an eye opening experience of exploring my own thoughts and hearing other people’s perspectives,"" Kevin. Likewise the Teaching Artists were deeply impacted by this project. ""I love that we get to do something and work with a special group of adults who teach me and humble me every session,"" Brian. Our proposal stated that the project was for the primary benefit of Vail Place members. We projected 30 members participating and we had 37. We also projected 150 to 200 other members would attend performances. We had about 140 members attending either the performances at Vail Place or the final performance at the History Theatre. There were two main reasons that prevented greater member attendance: 1. Limited transportation for members wanting to attend the History Theatre performance. 2. Performances at Vail Place were scheduled last minute to accommodate additional time that the groups at each location wanted to rehearse. This left little time to do outreach and promotion. Audiences for the final performance were about 200, just short of the 250 projected. However, we did do a couple of public performances for a professional women’s group and another nonprofit. Those performances were scaled back (fewer members performing) and reached an additional audience of about 250 people. On the whole, we successfully reached our intended community. The project was open to all Vail Place members and we promoted it through a variety of internal communications to make sure all members knew of the opportunity. The biggest barrier to participation we encountered, as has been true in the past, was personalities. We had several members at one of our clubhouses who participated who are very challenging personalities. The Teaching Artists did a great job respecting and trying to engage everyone in their groups. But some members, because of their illnesses, find certain people difficult to deal with and that prevented a few members from participating. In terms of diversity, each group represented, as our proposal detailed, a wide range of backgrounds, experiences, and abilities. The groups at each location closely reflected the total membership at that location. Our biggest challenge is in drawing larger audiences to our public performances. Word of mouth and strategic social media outreach has brought more attention to this project. We are receiving requests from businesses and other organizations to perform for them. We expect this to help us build a broader audience for this project in the future. Also, Vail Place is planning to expand to St Paul in late 2017, early 2018. The community we will be serving there is more diverse than our current Hennepin County locations serve, which will help us build more diverse membership and supporters/audiences. Members found a creative outlet that was powerful in terms of self-expression and also in communicating to others. Members achieved self-confidence and social skills that have positively impacted their mental health recovery and their overall quality of life. We found that theater is a great tool in fighting stigma. Performances informed audiences about mental illness very effectively.",,5445,"Other, local or private",10445,,"Amy Browne, Angie Dahl, Stephanie Devitt, Jane Dixon, Katie Doll, John Duffy, Patrick Hagan, Jack Haggerty, Desi Heaven, Calynn Hendrickson, Scott Kerssen, Elizabeth Knight, Sofya Mikhelson, Emily Pearl, Annette Ralph, Roger Sorensen, Patrick Stroh",0.00,"Vail Place","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to work with History Theatre teaching artists to develop a performance piece based on participants lived experiences with mental illnesses.

Surveys of both the choir members and audience members will be taken with an expected satisfaction rating exceeding 90%. For each of the nine free concerts, the choir will compile the number of choir members and audience count; plus, collect unsolicited post-performance audience verbal comments. Written surveys will be conducted at some concerts through use of a form with both check-off answers and space for open comments.","The artistic side of this project is designed to bring life-long enrichment to the lives of senior chorus members. Velvet Tones is a non-auditioned senior adult choir. As the members are not auditioned, this means that the skill level of the artist varies widely placing additional stress during rehearsal on the director. Weekly rehearsals are conducted throughout the Velvet Tones’ season. Recently in the news, Mick Jagger age 71 years, was asked, “What’s your secret in keeping your voice so strong?” Jagger replied, “Practice. You have to do it. You have to do warm-ups.” The same is true for our senior members. Their practice sessions always start with vocal exercises. Another vehicle for practicing is the “single-voice practice CDs” created by Rich Clausen our director. Access to the single-voice practice tracks has been improved through the use of the internet by placing the single-voice tracks on-line at our website http://www.velvettones.org/downloads/. CDs are still available for those who don’t have internet access. The need for practice CDs was the result of grant-funded member opinion polls. The polls indicated that a fair number of our members lacked the ability to read music. While not all members are at the highest level of skill, that has not stopped our director, Rich Clausen, from selecting interesting, complex choir arrangements with very wide music styles and genres. As a result, the practices and shows are enjoyable for the choir members (and audiences too). It is interesting to note that one choir member only attends the rehearsals…for the pure enjoyment. This member’s skill is a definite aid to the choir. Audiences have remarked on “how much fun” our choir members are having. The wide range of music can be appreciated by a partial list of the song titles: “Sweet Home Chicago,” “Fascinating Rhythm,” “Mickey Mouse March,” “Cripple Creek,” and “God Bless America.” It is not uncommon for the young children to profess that they want to be a singer in a group like Velvet Tones. Accepting our artistic challenge, rehearsals were expanded to 90 minutes. Ability-expanding music was selected requiring purchase of new sheet music. Two arrangements were made by our director, Rich Clausen. Our director enjoyed unusual artistic notice. The induction of Rich Clausen and his band, The Swinging Ambassadors, into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame has brought his name to the attention of long lost fans. This prestigious fact is used in the introduction of Rich to the audience. The Velvet Tones Choir members are very active in the Apple Valley Senior Center. The members take on more responsibilities than typical Apple Valley Senior Center members. For example, several choir members have served as president of the Apple Valley Senior Center. This contribution is very much appreciated by the management of the Apple Valley Senior. Due to the support the center receives from the Velvet Tones Choir, there is no charge to the choir or Metropolitan Regional Arts Council for use of the facility. The Mission Statement for the Velvet Tones is: To share the joy of singing, the fellowship of others and promote performing arts throughout the community. Additionally for the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council grant, the choir promised, “The Velvet Tones senior choir serves the needs of two groups: nearly 80 senior choir members; and, an underserved audience across the Greater Metropolitan Area.” Through recruitment, the choir has continued to maintain a membership level of 80 members, plus or minus. It should be noted that we do not have direct control over the attendance makeup; particularly at care homes and senior housing. People in the facility may not feel “up to” attending an event. The size of the audience is not what matters but the need of the audience. As noted in the summary below, the choir exceeded its goal for attendees this year. Through careful vetting, our director ensures that each venue meets our accessibility requirements. If not, we refuse their request for a show. Accessibility requirements must be met for both the audience members AND the choir members. Throughout the year, there are numerous articles regarding the contribution music makes to the physical and mental wellbeing. A recent article chronicled the life of the oldest known Holocaust survivor who died at the age of 110. In her Oscar-nominated movie, “The Lady in Number 6,” she comments, “Through music we were kept alive.” We hope in our small way, we too are helping people in senior care centers to have increased enjoyment in their lives. Another recent article covered the benefits of music as noted by the MacPhail Center for Music. They feel that housing for seniors, “…to be blunt, [is] a bore.” As an advocate for music, MacPhail Center wants to help senior renters ‘age artfully’. The Velvet Tones agree. In recognition of the mission of the Velvet Tones, the Velvet Tones were invited to sing at the MacPhail Center. Our 9 grant performances drew over 1010 people exceeding our goal. The average audience was 112 people per show. Grant shows had an average of 37 Velvet Tone members performing. Our 19 Paid performances drew 1455. The average audience was 86 people per show. Grant shows had an average of 42 Velvet Tone members performing. A total of 28 Grant and Paid performances were conducted. All 28 shows combined drew an audience of 2465 attendees. The average audience was 95 people per show with an average of 42+ Velvet Tones members performing. The annual audience for the Velvet Tones exceeds 1000. One significant outcome is the competition by grade school choirs to be chosen to participate in the annual “Festival of Music.” The melding of the children and senior voices is amazing. Our surveys show a 100% ranking of 5. More meaningful are the written comments, “Our residents look forward to this concert! It is an awesome performance!”",,2855,"Other, local or private",7855,,"Sue Rausch, Kay Provo, Diane Bergens, Wes Hasbrouck, Helen Rix, Rich Clausen",0.00,"Velvet Tones","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for nine vocal performances for groups with limited arts access.

WHAT WORKED: The music was great. People were engaged in the music. The dance area was consistently full. The Huey helicopter landing was a great success. After landing and shutting down, people were allowed to climb into the choppers. Kids and adults were thrilled to sit in a chopper which flew in Vietnam. DIDN'T WORK: It was a very bright sunny day. The crowd stayed under the shelters in the shade which were to the left of the stage and back a bit. Bands would been able to engage more with the audience if they had been in front of them. Next year we will put up a large tent in the center of the park to provide shade. STRENGTHS/CHALLENGES: The strengths were the variety of bands/music. The challenge was the time between some of the bands. DO DIFFERENT: The emcee would be more engaged with the audience. There would be activities for the audience between sets. INTENDED COMMUNITY: We did successfully reach our intended community. We were very pleased at the number of veterans, their families and friends who attended. ESTIMATED POPULATION: The estimated population benefiting was what we had anticipated. OUTREACH/DO DIFFERENT: For our first event we met the community diversity we had in mind as our goal. In the future, there will be a wider variety of music to appeal to a broader range of veterans, their family and friends. We hope to attract more of the younger veterans. There would be activities for the audience between sets. Food vendors would not be located so far back from the area where people sit. We would like to have more veteran services groups represented. We would add more interactive activates for people to view/participate in between bands. We would also have activities that would draw more families with children and young adults. MEET GOALS: Our goals were met based on the number of attendees representing all wars and conflicts since, and including, WWII. We were able to have the event free to the public, which was a major goal. There was a variety of vendors participating. The program was physically accessible to all who attended.

The project achieved our artistic goals. The audience’s response to the performances was enthusiastic. Both performances received standing ovations, and many of the attendees sought out the choir and composers to express their enjoyment of the performance. The project focus of Celebrating Women Composers, was well received. Our new composers worked with an experienced composer clinician to enhance their compositions. This is a strength of the process that we used for the project. All three new composers expressed how much they enjoyed the opportunity provided to gain an experienced analysis of their compositions and to make improvements to their work. The challenge of this project is to bring together the choral participants, new directors, and the artistic director, and to produce a high quality performance with a limited preparation time. The process used includes a combination of working with clinicians and a focused rehearsal schedule that pushes the participants to work together and to come prepared for rehearsal. We had over 250 people attend our free performances. They came largely from the Twin Cities and surrounding communities with a few of the attendees coming from greater Minnesota. The audience was provided programs which included information on each of the songs we performed. Through these notes we were able to educate the audience on the challenges and the successes of women composers. We also featured emerging women composers whose compositions were well received with one of the pieces now having been published as a result of the exposure it received from our concerts. Our audience survey indicated they were pleased with the program, the venue, and the overall quality of the performance. We had over 250 attend our performances.

We made our program accessible to all youth by keeping the registration fee low. We offer scholarships to make the program affordable. Two used scholarships. The program is advertised during the Washington County Fair, Minnesota State Fair, on T-shirts, in the Clover Update, and at the Open House. 2. The program attracts an audience. We had 3,310 people attend the show this year. 3. The youth continue to participate. We had 67% of the participating youth return from last year. 4. The youth and directors consider the performance to be of high quality. Directors, student directors, PDC members, youth, audience members, parents, and Extension Staff were all proud and impressed with the quality of the program that we had this year. We received very positive feedback. Several things that worked well. The director limited the number of student directors to 7 youth so that he could work with a smaller, cohesive group. This was successful. The director was timely in getting music/script to the youth ahead of time. We purchased a keyboard and used the sound system that the Ag Society purchased so we had excellent equipment to work with. The show was performed within the 30 minute time period consistently. We identified a Technical Director for the 2017 season, and he shadowed 20 hours with our current Technical Director. His experience will benefit our program next year. At his request, our director served several roles: director, assistant director, vocal director and accompanist which turned out to be overwhelming. We will change that for 2017. We identified several opportunities to improve our communication regarding program participation: 1-we will clarify language in our registration form so that seventh graders know they are required to participate on the technical crew because one student changed majors without informing the director or being given instruction to do so by a director. 2-we will clarify expectations for full-time attendance at encampment because we had several students leave for other activates during encampment without notifying anyone. This could compromise show quality so the PDC will discuss this with the 2017 director who will help set expectations with regard to attending encampment. 3-we will update the Code of Conduct to prohibit “ad-libbing” the script. This happened one time this season and in the future, we will require the director to approve all changes. Changes/revisions discussed at post-production PDC meeting: Director application-required to attend all encampment activities, rehearsals, and performances. Director hired for one role. Director expectations clarified regarding major assignment, encampment attendance requirements, and working with the PDC. Provide training for all members of the technical crew on sound and light management to strengthen the team. This show afforded many opportunities to the participants. There were 14 solos. The costuming was exceptional, functional and done cost effectively. We had 100% parent participation. Student Directors led teambuilding activities and assisted with choreography and script writing which increases enthusiasm and participation. We were able to make our program accessible to all. We reached 3,310 people in the community. Unfortunately, we were unable to perform for our seniors due to a scheduling conflict, but we are hopeful that we can reach that group during the encampment in our 2017 season. We invited Commissioners and Legislators and sent a follow up thank you to them for their support. The show was advertised in the County Fair program, on the T-shirts, and in the Clover Update, the county newsletter. Arts-In had a booth at the second annual open house in October, an event that is advertised in local newspapers and libraries throughout Washington County. Two hundred people attended this event this year. Each fair season, we set up an Arts-In display in the 4-H Food Building, Hooley Hall, for the public to view. In addition, county 4-H leaders make announcements at their club meetings about Arts-In. Club leaders have received diversity and risk management training and those ideas were used to make the program safe, cost effective, and affordable for all who wish to participate. Our program reaches senior citizens, adults, and children of all ages. We had 59 participants this year: 18 males (31%) and 41 females (69%). We had two participants on scholarship and 6 students who registered late and were assessed a late fee. Forty youth returned this year (67%). This year we had 6 students graduating from the 4-H program and eight high school seniors who have one more year to perform. We are hoping they all return for one more Arts-In season. Arts-In is accessible to all regardless of socioeconomic, education, or geographic status. The artists who directed our technical crew, vocals, and band had done so in past years. We had a 4-H alumni assist with choreography. She verbalized satisfaction with the role and the students enjoyed working with her. Our vocal director doubled as the Director so that was challenging from an organization standpoint. Next year we will have a new Technical Director who shadowed this year for about 20 hours to learn the Arts-In production process. He has numerous years of experience in local theaters as a Technical Director so we are looking forward to his help next year. We are working as a committee to identify a Director for next year. Several alumni have indicated that they are interested in applying. We had 12 applicants for the Student Director positions. We had 5 SD’s for the performers, one SD for the Technical Crew, and one SD for the Band. Student Director selection is done by the Director. The SD’s were very helpful with encampment activities, script writing, and leading choreography. Outcome 1: The program builds up youth and adults. They learn artistic skills, confidence, leadership, teamwork, friendship, and citizenship and return the next year-- 67% return participants/100% parent volunteer. Outcome 2: Celebrate diversity as singers, dancers, friends, leaders, and people. (14 solos, 5-6 students helped with choreography, 7 student directors, 6 band members, 16 tech crew).",,4325,"Other, local or private",9325,,"Avis Peters, Julie Persoon, Heather Verdick, Emily Fulton Fischer",0.00,"Washington County 4-H Federation","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the Washington County Arts-In, a four-day intensive performing arts camp for youth from grades 7 through their freshmen year of post-secondary education.

Qualitatively, we will introduce and/or enhance skills through the interactive Latin Social Dances residency, and expose youth and audience members to the Latin American culture, traditions, and history. We will evaluate our program through paper and online evaluations, follow-up discussions with the youth participating, the Cowles Center resident artist, Giselle Mejia, School Age Care staff involved in the project, and parents of the youth. We will also evaluate the success of the program by the number of participants and audience members compared to prior years, including an evaluation of the demographics of the participants.","Goal 1: teach participants about rhythm, dance and music, and perform an ensemble for a live audience. Our resident artist, Giselle Mejia, worked with two groups of youth, Kindergarten – 2nd grade and 3rd – 7th grade. Youth learned of the salsa, bachata, merengue, flamenco and hip-hop dances, and the types of rhythm and music involved for each. Ms. Mejia taught the youth how current, popular dance moves originated in Latin Dance, and used them in the routines. Youth were encouraged to free style, by creating their own dance moves, which instilled confidence, artistic creativity and fun. The artist used repetition, games and drills to teach discipline in learning full-body dance moves. The youth’s rhythmic and dancing skills improved greatly over the two weeks, and they practiced dancing together to present a composed, live ensemble. Goal 2: teach youth how music and dance shapes the Latin American community and build an inclusive cultural program. Being from Latin America, Ms. Mejia shared how she learned dance in her household at a young age. Latin America is a warm and welcoming culture, as seen through the confidence of self-expressive dance, which she encouraged each youth to partake in. Ms. Mejia gave a variety of dance steps for the youth to use if they were shy. Using Spanish words as cues to signal dances and steps, Ms. Mejia exposed youth to the language. The youth also researched the dances, and made posters, murals and décor representing the culture, including making carnival masks and bright colored tissue paper flowers for decorations. The younger group performed a routine based off the annual carnival festival. This was our first Latin Dance class, and more members of our Hispanic/Latino community participated to learn about their heritage. Goal 3: reach out to family members and the community through a free performance, and bring awareness to the arts. Ms. Mejia was enthusiastic and welcoming during the event, engaging the audience in each performing piece. Ms. Mejia also performed a solo and taught the audience the merengue. Our families experienced Latin Dance for the first time, and were captivated by its vibrancy. The participants were radiating with pride from performing such a well-done ensemble, charming the audience even further. Families appreciated seeing a glimpse of the skills the youth had been learning at our summer camp and being able to learn with them. Providing this multi-faceted artistic performance showed our community a new artistic form that is captivating to both participants and audience members. Our ability to meet our artistic goals is credited to Ms. Mejia’s teaching techniques. Her talent and strong ability to work with youth was seen through her patience, understanding and flexibility in providing varying avenues for youth to rehearse and learn each dance step. In the future it would be better to offer three classes, creating a separate one for 5-8th grade youth, to accommodate all interested youth and their skills. We were successful in reaching a broader scope of youth through this program. Compared to last year, our total number of participating youth increased from 25 to 40. Throughout the two weeks even more youth tried the Latin Dance Party course, but were either unable to commit to the performance, or our class was already full. Although we had less male participants, we reached our goal of having a more ethnically diverse population, in particular the Hispanic/Latino community. Our focus in offering a residency like this was to reach out to our Hispanic/Latino population, to recognize and celebrate a prevalent culture in our community. There were Hispanic/Latino youth who participated solely because of the cultural representation, and they were encouraged by their families to learn more about their heritage. In addition, there were nine percent more Asian youth, two percent more Multicultural youth, and six percent more youth identified as “Other.” In total our youth population was 22% more ethnically diverse than last year. This year our audience member attendance increased by 37%, compared to last year. Last year our audience attendance dropped, since we offered a new type of community event, and not all families were aware when our family night was. This was also our second year introducing a new cultural performing arts opportunity. The number of audience members also increased because we had more youth participants. This in turn caused our audience to be more diverse, since our youth diversity increased. The audience appreciated the diversity of the performance, and several families who did not have youth participating, stayed to enjoy the performance. Based off other performances parents see their youth in, they had never experienced such a lively, fun performance as this. It caught their attention and will hopefully keep their interest as we continue to offer new performing arts opportunities, and introduce new cultures. This program was highly accessible for all youth in our program. The only reasons youth did not participate in the performance were schedule conflicts, fear of performing in front of others, or because we reached our capacity. No youth was turned away based on their ethnicity, financial restraints, abilities, or beliefs. Compared to last year, there were 21% more youth receiving financial assistance who participated, and seven percent more youth participants with special needs. The hands-on instruction and Ms. Mejia’s ability to meet each youth at their skill level, kept all youth engaged, and made it easy for youth to pay attention and maintain their focus. Ms. Mejia was patient and understanding working with these youth and treated them with equality. The number of ethnically diverse youth increased by 22%, and our target population of Hispanic/Latino youth increased by 10%. Youth with Special Needs and/or needing Financial Assistance grew by 27%, making this arts program our most diverse. Families surveyed showed 100% of youth experienced Latin Dances for the first time, and the event drew 220 audience members, a 37% increase from last year.",,2034,"Other, local or private",7034,,"Joanne Mansur, Stephanie Levine, Byron Schwab, John Chandler, Brenda Corbett, Matthew Klein, Terry Stamman, Missy McGinty, Charlotte Rowland, Amanda Shadoin, Paige John, Giselle Mejia, Jessi Fett",0.00,"West Saint Paul-Mendota Heights-Eagan School District School Age Care","K-12 Education","Community Arts",,"Funding for Latin Social Dances, a two week long performing arts experience for youth ages Kindergarten through 8th grade partnering with a resident artist from The Cowles Center for Dance and Performing Arts.

We would love to see the participants and the audience have a take away from experiencing the work which could be documented on video, in their comments through social media, and any feedback. Aniccha Arts will monitor its goals through an evaluation and feedback process, including a a form addressing questions pertaining to the social location of collaborators, the quality of the process and event, and what specifically individuals walked away from the project with. Additionally, there will be video documentation of the event which includes a visual of the audience engagement. For audiences, we will gather information from social media which is directed through traffic on the Northern Spark website.","Artistic Goals: A key goal of Census was to engage individuals from varied social positions within the greater community all at once. This goal was achieved through a recruitment process, rehearsal process, and a public performance which always had this consciousness in focus. Another goal was to sustain engaged participation of 114 collaborators through a 6 week rehearsal process, which included an all-night, nine hour intensive performance. We had 65 collaborators who participated in a 6 week process which concluded in an all-night performance with hundreds of people that joined the performance. It was overwhelming and we had a very difficult time managing the audiences who decided to participate on the line without adhering to our process of integrating as performers. We had a goal to work with impromptu audience participants. We wanted to provide an opportunity for 150 audience participants to sign up. Only a few people signed up prior to the event. There were roughly 34,000 audience members who passed through the festival that night. From 9-midnight, we were able to handle the overwhelming numbers of the audience. But, around 11:30/midnight performers started to perform less which meant that there were multiple unoccupied lights, which led to a lot of drunk and non-drunk audience members taking up the ‘stage’ space. I have been making work that deals with audience engagement for the last 12 years and I had collaborators that have deep knowledge of how Northern Spark functions. There is nothing we could have known to do in terms of preparing for that overwhelming audience interaction, which was so tough to manage. We got an overwhelming response from 20 individual participants via electronic form and 10 through in person feedback. Most of the suggestions were about wanting more rehearsal time. People thought we were planned and organized, and respected in the space, as well as having tools for working on something in community. However, there were a lot of feelings about the audiences that night, although for the most part performers felt that it was out of Aniccha Arts’ control. Feedback from the group at large included: Strengths of process: efficiency of coordination with the large group and the structure for learning; good planning and keeping within promised end times; individuals feeling respected in the process; safe space, open space, welcoming space, community space; individuals feeling power to explore and perform; methods and space for holding accountability and commitment towards each other in a room of 65 people. Things that could improve: craving more space for conversation in the process; needing more time to explore the modules in the process; the overwhelming audiences on the night of the performance; more rehearsal time. I would have fewer artistic collaborators. That would be the only difference if I did a similar project. - Yes we reached our intended community. It is tricky to track the abilities of people given that abilities can be hidden. It is hard to know what gender a person identifies as and it is not an appropriate forum to ask invasive questions of that nature at the festival. Most of our audiences were white as the festival generally brings that audience. But, we really, involved our communities which in turn brought in our connections, just not in the hundreds like the festival. We had an ASL interpreter involved from 9-12am, and advertised to the disability community through various websites and connections about this. We presented our project that could involve audiences on a platform and stage that could bring in people with special needs into the performance as performers.

We hope that comments from participants will indicate that a majority experienced experimental new music and gained critical listening skills as well as a new appreciation and understanding of its artistic and educational value. We will count participants (including audience members) and document (written) feedback based on discussions and other interactive activities.","113’s artistic goals for this project were: 1) to inspire, educate, and engage members of the Twin Cities community through the presentation of high-quality seminars, workshops, and concerts featuring local and internationally-recognized, successful living composers; 2) to introduce underrepresented music by living composers to people who may have had little or no opportunity to experience music of this genre through performances of exceptional quality; and 3) to proliferate and disseminate contemporary art music. We sought to expose the community to current art and art-making and to give composers and musicians of all backgrounds a public opportunity to advance the making and performance of serious art music. We believe that we accomplished all of these goals. Duo Gelland and 113 performed and presented interactive workshops, seminars, and concerts at Eastside Neighborhood Services, Brightwater Montessori School, University of Minnesota music education and music theory classes, Planet Homeschool, Avalon School, the American Swedish Institute, Valley View Middle School, Graham Place Senior Center, Ingebretsen’s, and Grace University Lutheran Church. Strains performed at Studio Z and collaborated with 113 to present a pre-concert new music workshop, as well. We established new relationships with organizations such as the American Swedish Institute and Graham Place Senior Center. Both organizations have expressed enthusiastic interest in partnering with us to present new music events again during the 2016-2017 academic year. University of Minnesota student composers had the opportunity to work one-on-one with Duo Gelland to learn about advanced techniques for violin composition. All events were well-prepared and participatory and the performances were of outstanding quality. The greatest challenge of this project was managing the complicated schedules of our artistic partners and those of so many different venues. Occasional misunderstandings and miscommunications did arise, but since all involved were committed to the success of this initiative, we collectively arrived at workable solutions very quickly. Duo Gelland, Strains, and 113 represent women and men, members of the LGBTQ community, and multiple ethnicities. Through this project, we hoped to speak for people and communities that are often underrepresented in the world of contemporary art music--particularly women and members of the LGBTQ community. We planned to most directly serve local college-age students, members of retirement communities, and young, professional musicians and scholars from throughout the Twin Cities. We hoped to expand our audience base to represent people of all ages, levels of experience, socio-economic and life circumstances, genders, sexual orientations, and cultural backgrounds through our educational outreach endeavors. Duo Gelland performed for, improvised with, and discussed new music with students of all ages and senior citizens on a daily basis throughout their Twin Cities residency. We created and programmed underrepresented art music at all of these events. We promoted age, gender, ethnic, and socioeconomic diversity within our core audience through events at Graham Place Senior Center, Eastside Neighborhood Services, and Planet Homeschool, in addition to many other sites. All venues were fully accessible to people with disabilities, and included elevators, wheelchair ramps, and handicap permit parking. All locations were located near Metro Transit bus and light rail lines. We also provided large-print programs. We hosted a reception following each concert, giving us the opportunity to continue discussions between musicians, composers, and audience members. We offered free admission to children and senior citizens and $5 discounted admission for college students. In addition to the populations that we proposed to serve, we were able to work with many children through workshops at Eastside Neighborhood Services, Avalon School, Planet Homeschool, and others. We presented a total of 20 events throughout the Twin Cities community. We premiered 12 new works. In total, we reached 756 people through this initiative. Administrators and participants at all venues expressed gratitude for the impact of this programming and expressed hopes for future opportunities to work with us to introduce new music to their constituents.",,3800,"Other, local or private",8800,,"Collin Arneson, Joey Crane, Michael Duffy, Jeffery Kyle Hutchins, Sam Krahn, Joshua Musikantow, Tiffany Skidmore, Nanyi Neil Qiang",0.00,"113 AKA 113 Composers Collective","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to present violin duo, Duo Gelland, the Strains New Music Ensemble, and the composers of 113 in three concerts, four lectures, and multiple new music workshops at colleges and retirement communities throughout the Twin Cities over a period of two ",2016-03-23,2016-05-08,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Tiffany,Skidmore,113,"740 Victoria St S Ste 247","St Paul",MN,55102,"(509) 218-0347 ",113composers@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,"Hennepin, Ramsey",,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-639,"Carolyn Phelps; Administration, audience development, fundraising; Pat Teiken: Administration, fundraising, organizational development; Laura Krider: General administration; Ben Layne: Artistic, administration, computer systems; Djenane Saint Juste: Artistic, Community Education, youth programming; Katherine Smith-Flores: Education, administration; Pa Na Lor: Artistic, education, youth programming; Laney Ohmans: Audience development, computer systems, fundraising.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35828,"Community Arts",2016,5000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","Our project will allow over 25 youth ages five to 18 and over 35 adults the opportunity to be in the cast or orchestra for Fiddler on the Roof.

The project was not able to realize as many project hours as originally anticipated due to scheduling conflicts between ALLY program participant schedules and the COMPAS Artist in Residence schedule. ALLY found that late spring to summer sessions may not be as well attended or as easily coordinated as fall, winter, to early spring sessions. However, the project's soft skills development benchmarks were met for each student artist, and the modules 1-3 for the Finding True North, Artist in Residence Program were achieved. The strengths of the artistic process were: working with a COMPAS teaching artist, having two days for the Artist in Residence ""in-house"" as the population of ALLY artists who were served for this session were individuals who were employed in the community or on work crews; having two days weekly to achieve maximum participation were necessary; this is something we had learned in the 2015 sessions, which continues to work moving forward. The artist process was based on the learning of three new techniques in self expressive art, thus the theme of the session: Finding True North. ALLY student artists related to the theme because most of them had just completed or were in the midst of Personal Empowerment Training being offered at ALLY People Solutions in collaboration with Twin Cities Rise. The theme and modules included self-portraits, stencils, street art and graffiti, which was especially well received with this spring-early summer session cohort who were 50% younger and more diverse ethnically than the student artists who had attended the Allies in Art and Artful Employment pilot project the previous two sessions. The next session that ALLY will propose will comprise of many of the same aspects and assets with which we're working now. COMPAS has been an excellent partner, hosting our Artist in Residence sessions in our dedicated Arts and Cultural space on the Green Line, maximizes participant inclusion and participation, and we will again host two sessions weekly in order to coordinate with schedules and maximize the experience for each participant. ALLY was successful in reaching out intended community of participants and artists. ALLY had secured a COMPAS Artist in Residence and an associate of hers as soon as the grant was awarded. Katrina had worked with ALLY in previous Metropolitan Regional Arts Council Artist in Residence proposals, and she along with her associate were very well received by the ALLY program participants. Program participants who have disabilities received instruction from the Artist in Residence over the course of 14 weeks. They were diverse in racial and ethnic composition and were diverse in their artistic goals, interests and abilities. 1. All 33 Artists had individualized goals to work on. The Artist in Residence provided progress reports on each of their goals upon the completion of each of the three modules. 2.

This goal was achieved. Another goal was to present innovative programming that would engage the audience and motivate them to return for more concerts. The grant funding made it possible for us to dedicate many hours to learning and performing new and challenging repertoire. Survey comments show the audience members were extremely enthusiastic about the music as well as the level of playing. We will continue to work to present programs with engaging music. To help the audience members connect with the music, some of which may have been in styles that they were not familiar with, each quartet member spoke about one piece before it was performed. This provided background information that would help illuminate certain fundamental concepts. Three composers attended the performances and spoke to the audience before their piece was performed. We included photos of all composers in the program which we also believe helps the listener connect to the music. Although our audience at Studio Z was a bit smaller than we expected, it was a very successful concert in that the composers were thrilled with the performance of their pieces and the audience was enthusiastic about the playing and the music. One new audience member showed up the next day at the Weisman to hear the program again (sitting in the front row both times). We are interested in exploring other venues in St Paul to see if a different venue would attract a larger audience. There was some speculation that construction work near the St Paul venue kept some people home. We were successful in attracting our intended community, which was made up of returning listeners as well as people new to chamber music or to hearing saxophone in a chamber music setting. We met our goals of making these concerts available to all by including accessibility information for both venues in all publicity materials and by not charging admission to the performance at the Weisman Museum. Additionally, we offered complimentary tickets for the Studio Z concert to listeners from the disabled community and for people on reduced budgets. We also offered a discount for tickets purchased online in advance. One audience member specified that this was important: ""huge kudos to you for inviting various ""low income"" folks with free admission. I haven't seen this much (in this country), and there should to be more of it. It is a very good idea."" Finally, we provided an usher at Studio Z and large print programs at both concerts. Once on site we made sure the concert venues were accessible, adjusting seating as needed for wheelchairs. We alerted the ushers to the possibility that they would need to assist visually impaired guests or those in wheelchairs. Feedback from the survey cards indicates that our listeners access all current publicity outlets. 100 people attended the Weisman concert; 40 attended Studio Z. 50% of the Weisman audience completed surveys; 30% were at their first Ancia performance. 37% of the Studio Z audience completed surveys; 53% were at their first Ancia performance.

We will give a short, written exit survey to all new participants to determine their enjoyment and perceived growth from their experience at Art 4 All.","The artistic goals for Spring 2016 Art 4 All pop up were simple -- to give the community in and around Maplewood Mall a convenient place to drop in and create interesting, varied, challenging art pieces in a family-friendly setting. We want to help people of all ages understand that their lives can be improved and made more joyful by exposure to and experiences in the arts. This concept in a shopping mall environment is quite unique and many mall patrons noted that having Art 4 All in the mall made the mall a better place -- especially for families. The strengths of Art 4 All is that it is convenient and accessible for all. There is no need to sign up for specific classes or time frames. It is set up as a drop in experience which makes it very accessible for passers-by and thus the percentage of new guests is higher than returning guests. As a business model, however, this flexibility for customers makes it more difficult to project income from day to day. The varied project types and mediums worked well. We always offered at least 5 different project options for guests on our monthly rotating menu. Over the 3 month period we offered numerous canvas painting projects, junk sculpture, mixed media self-portrait, organic abstract sculpture, mini box assemblage, Kandinsky-inspired watercolor, button bouquets, foil and alcohol ink, and tie dye among others. With all these choices, patrons could come as often as once a week and not run out of new project options. One of our goals was to achieve 90% positive feedback from participants. Our survey showed the following results: 1. Overall Experience - 95% Wonderful/4% Good/1% Average/0% Poor. 2. Satisfaction with Quality of Art Project - 92% Wonderful/7% Good/1% Average/0% Poor. 3. Value of Experience for the Money Spent - 81% Wonderful/16% Good/3% Average/0% Poor. 4. Do you plan to come back? 84% Yes/14% Probably/2% Maybe/0% No. 5. Did you enjoy your experience? 0% Less than I expected/25% About as much as I expected/75% More than I expected. Overall we reached our goal of 90% positive feedback! I feel the only struggle with the concept is how to bring in consistent cash flow in order to maintain the business. In the future, we may have to focus more energy on booking larger groups on a regular basis and promote more heavily the party option (both of which would give more steady income). Our goal for our spring 2016 Art 4 All pop up was to reach at least 500 new customers with positive, accessible art experiences with at least 50% of those being people of color. Our results? We reached 714 people total. 292 new Caucasians and 276 new people of color. 146 returning customers. So overall we reached 568 new people. 51% white and 49% people of color. Goal was nearly perfectly achieved! In order to maintain the Art 4 All business, we must charge $6-$12 per project (depending upon the cost of the materials used). Though this is a very reasonable fee, it is still too much for some who would like to participate. In the future, with more and larger grants, we may be able to have all projects be $5 or make a sliding fee scale of some kind. This would open the door even more and make it truly Art 4 All! Art 4 All reached over 700 people with high quality, hands-on art experiences in our 3 month pop up. 49% of the new customers reached were people of color.

Audience surveys will show that the audience was moved and inspired by the performance. Bach Society of Minnesota will survey students before and after the event to gauge the learning and impact of their experience. Audience feedback will be solicited both informally and through a survey to evaluate the pact of the experience.","We believe we met our basic artistic goals for this project: 1. Create a musical experience that speaks to the soul by approaching challenging topics with honesty, hope, and inspiration. Bach's Cantatas 8, 78 and 72 allow a glimpse into Bach's emotional life and beliefs, and the music has the ability to inspire hope and confidence in the face of life's many challenges. We believe that the program effectively portrayed the emotions of loss (""indeed my weak heart feels fear, worry, pain from Cantata 8), healing (That blood which doth my guilt annul it makes my heart feel light again from Cantata 78) and acceptance (Who trust in God on him relies from Cantata 72) we had wanted to share. We believe the performances effectively portrayed those emotions. 2. Broaden our Bach Society of Minnesota community by including St Paul students in our activities. A highlight of the concert was inclusion of the St Paul Central Singers in the concluding chorale of each cantata. It was wonderful that they had the experience of being on stage with professional musicians, and the students' enthusiasm also benefitted the musicians and singers. It was also wonderful to have the students' families and friends in the audience, which definitely diversified Bach Society of Minnesota's audience. 3. Provide the opportunity for all the musicians, professional and amateur, to be challenged musically in an environment supportive of their success. Musicians and singers continue to express appreciation for the respectful environment Bach Society of Minnesota creates at both rehearsals and in performances. Involving students at the February 27 concert also provided an opportunity for singers to take the younger singers ""under their wings."" There is always benefit to teaching aspiring young musicians, and experienced professionals see their work in a new way as part of this process. Overall, we feel the concert was a success. We enjoyed working with musicians and singers who have been part of previous Bach Society of Minnesota concerts. Because of the size of the orchestra and chorus, there were people who had the opportunity to perform together for the first time. Working with the student choir was also a very positive experience, and brought a sense of freshness to the professional performers. Singing in both a Baroque style and in German was challenging for all, but we were pleased with the performance. It was helpful that there was a student with very good German pronunciation who helped the other students. The process would not have worked nearly so well without the benefit of all the work that Martha Graber at Saint Paul Central High School did with the Central Singers so that they were so well prepared coming in to the project. Bach Society of Minnesota would definitely work with a student choir again, assuming they had already had excellent leadership and training so they were ready to work with professional musicians without a great deal of intensive rehearsal time together. Bach Society of Minnesota's Twin Cities audiences are generally about 48% adults under 65, 48% adults over 65 and 4% students. The February 27 concert had more adults under 65 than usual - about 60%. We believe this is primarily because parents and other family members of the student choir members came to the concert. Our audience is usually white middle to upper-middle class; the February 27 concert was more diverse, with more Latino and Asian-Americans. Again, this was primarily because of the inclusion of the Saint Paul Central High School choir in the concert. Marketing for the concert was done through press releases to local media (print and broadcast) as well as Facebook and MailChimp mailings. For the first time, we also sent information to the music departments at colleges and universities throughout the state, in hopes of attracting more college students. Since the concert was held on Hamline University's campus, we did have two students attend who would otherwise not have attended a Bach Society of Minnesota concert. This year Bach Society of Minnesota has put more emphasis on accessibility. The Board adopted an official Accessibility Statement clarifying that the organization is committed to ensuring equal access to concerts, that care is taken to select wheelchair accessible venues, that ASL interpreters will be provided by request, and that large print programs will be available at all concerts. There was an audience member in a wheelchair at the February concert, and several large-print programs were used. No one requested an ASL interpreter. Bach Society of Minnesota continues to look for ways to broaden and diversify its audience. We have been generous in providing complimentary tickets to musicians and singers, in hopes that they will include younger and more racially-diverse people. The Bach Society of Minnesota board has been discussing broader outreach efforts for the 2016-17 season, and will continue to seek out schools to partner with in hopes of attracting a younger and more racially diverse audience. 120 people attended the concert. 68 were adults, 48 were seniors and 4 were students. 36 people (primarily families of student singers) received complimentary tickets. Audience members expressed positive feelings about the concert.

Each concert involved audience participation through an informal question and answer session. Hands on opportunities were available to audience members after each concert. One of our primary goals was to enrich the musical life of the community. This goal turned out to be the highlight for our ringing members. Seeing the joy on the audiences faces as we rang made these concerts incredibly meaningful and fulfilling to us performers. In turn, audience members spoke to us after the concerts sharing their appreciation for such a high caliber musical concert being held at their facility without the need to travel throughout the metro area. Artistically speaking, music selection played a large role in the success of these concerts. Music Director, Bill Mathis, was able to craft the concert in such a way to highlight the music of the 30’s and 40’s that sparked the interest of the audience. Toes were tapping, voices were singing and humming along as audience members were recalled days gone by. One challenge in preparing for this concert series was teaching our ringers music from an unfamiliar era. This experience more than exceeded our expectations for the concert series and we are looking forward to doing it again with new venue partners. Our intended community for this concert series were the residents of the senior living facilities, their families and staff. Each concert was well attended by a diverse population; with various levels of mobility and accessibility to music concerts and handbells. The music we performed made a connection with the audiences that awakened memories hidden within. One lady was brought in the concert venue and did not speak, but when we performed ‘Blessed Assurance,’ she began to hum along. Many concert attendees had heard handbells before, but few in a concert setting. Two concert venues included audience members that were passionate about handbells and had extensive experience in ringing prior to retiring. Our concert was able to rekindle their love for the instrument. It was a joy for our members to see the enthusiasm in these audience members. We were delighted to see the large audiences at each facility. Our local partners did a great job spreading the word to their residents and encouraging participation in attending the concerts. Many residents also brought along family members that came specifically to enjoy the concert with their loved one. Bells of the Lakes worked with each venue to make sure that residents could easily access the concert site. Staff were very helpful in wheeling down residents and making sure all who were interested could attend. 360 people attended the concert series. Audience members didn’t just enjoy listening to the concerts, they felt a connection to the music. The ability to connect with the audience was the highlight for our members.

In addition, we strived to engage the community with interactive experiences. The 2016 World Fest featured music and dance from Latin America, Poland, China, Native American, Japan, Mexico, and the United States. The festivities began with a procession of flags led by a Chinese Lion Dance. Foreign exchange students attending local high schools were the flag bearers. Our audience members were clapping and dancing, smiling and singing along with the performers. The artists wore bright colored traditional authentic costumes. The performers were excellent spokespersons for their culture, describing their costumes, culture, and stories behind the dance. After their performers, the artists became participants, sampling food and joining in on the activities while interacting with the crowd. Cultural and informational booths included learning Japanese phrases, writing your name in Chinese, Hmong crafts, Chinese relaxation techniques, authentic Native American Tip, Cilongu Foundation information, health and wellness information, Foreign Exchange Students Program with a flag display, and a selfie station with hats from around the world. In addition, the Sons of Norway of Anoka County handed out samples of lefse and provided an authentic Norwegian Stabbur for participants to view. The Spin Zone was the most popular activity at World Fest. The Spin Zone featured several toys from around the world such as ribbon sticks, crystal sticks, balance board, Chinese yo-yo, hula hoops, juggling items, and spinning plates. Adults and children tried out these games throughout the afternoon. Our Blaine Arts Council volunteered to staff the children’s craft station where participants decorated Asian fans and made a Native American necklace. A new activity this year was a booth from Macaroon. The leaders of the booth were dressed in authentic cultural clothing and had many items related to their culture. The group played drums and danced and encouraged participants to do the same. Overall, World Fest featured 78 performing artists and 5 crafters. Next year, we will be changing the entertainment line up to include cultures not highlighted in previous World Fest events. In addition, we would like to add more cultural vendors and vendors selling ethnic products. The 9th Annual Blaine World Fest in total drew in approximately 1600 people. The comments and feedback in regards to the 2016 event were very positive and numerous people in attendance commented positively on the new additions of food, cultural displays, and the variety of entertainment. Based on the feedback we received we feel that the event was very successful in providing a fun learning environment for people to interact and build relationships. There were numerous comments on how much people enjoyed the variety of entertainment, dance and cultural booths. Many audience members interacted with performers after the event asking questions about the country they were representing, the clothing that they were wearing, and when they might be able to see them perform again. One goal we set each and every year has been to reach diverse crowd, and it has been exciting to see our crowd become more diverse every years. The 2016 event was successful in achieving this goal. People from different cultures came to see entertainment from their country of origin and taste authentic ethnic cuisine. From toddlers to senior citizen age adults, there seems to be something for everyone to enjoy at the Blaine World Fest. The accessibility of this event was a big goal for us and something we have really focused on. We listened to all the requests and ideas we received from vendors, entertainers, and cultural booths, wishing to be involved in this year’s event. We promoted the event to cultural organizations in the City. We once again promoted the World Fest in local schools. We also did a great deal of advertising in the local papers and a highway billboard. Each and every year we have focused very hard on making things as accessible as possible for individuals with disabilities. We had a large number of greeters working this year whom assisted people with disabilities if needing help with access to bathroom facilities. Town Square Park which hosts the event is very accessible with flat outdoor surfaces, easy access points, no stairs to climb, and handicap accessible bathrooms. Blaine World Fest 2016 reached an attendance of 1600. We had 22 cultural and informational booths, more than in any previous years.

We will obtain feedback from chorus members and other participants through an online survey and post-performance discussions. We will take an audience and performer number count on the day of the concert.","Project artistic goals: Goal 1. Produce a concert that engages our community singers and our audience in music that expresses women’s voices and promotes social change through song. Response: Audience response to the concert was overwhelmingly positive. In our audience survey, 100% of respondents stated that the performance was an engaging experience, and that the performance achieved Calliope's artistic goals. Our Chorus member survey also revealed a high degree of satisfaction. 100% of respondents said that the experience of preparing for and performing in the concert developed their artistic skills, and that the performance achieved our thematic goals. Goal 2. Use music and other media (stories, photos, personal accounts and lobby display) to help our audience experience how Calliope has helped give voice to the community of women, especially LGBT and other unheard voices, over the past 40 years. Response: This was one of this project's great strengths. The combination of music from the past and present, with personal stories from current and former participants, created a powerful, moving and inspiring experience that showcased the Chorus's impact on many lives. In advance of the concert we reached out to past members and recorded many video interviews. Excerpts from the interviews were played on a 10 x 15 foot screen on stage in between each piece of music, creating a visual and sound tapestry of Calliope participation over the years. At the end of the concert, about 20 former members spontaneously came up on stage to join the Chorus in singing ""Deep Peace"", a long time Calliope anthem. Audience members described the experience as joyous, uplifting, fulfilling, exhilarating, inspiring and delightful, and commented on the beautiful singing and that the performance acknowledged Calliope's role in ""radical social change."" Goal 3. Premiere a new commissioned piece by a female Minnesota composer, and reprise other commissions written for Calliope Women’s Chorus. Response: This was another project highlight. Linda Kachelmeier wrote a setting of the poem ""Everyone Sang"" for us and it received its world premiere at this concert. Linda rehearsed the piece with us extensively. The premiere was incredibly moving. The piece includes the repeated phrase: ""The singing will never be done,"" and the audience is invited to join in with this part of the piece. The whole auditorium chanting together for several minutes with Linda's beautiful melody was an amazing moment of community in music. Many survey respondents commented on this. Recapping other Calliope favorites was appreciated by many former Chorus members who attended and was a powerful chronological review of our musical history. Our main challenge was the sheer scale of this undertaking. Making all the elements work together required planning, coordination and hundreds of volunteer hours. The project succeeded through encouragement by our leaders and our volunteers' persistence and commitment. Did you successfully reach your intended community (i.e. audience, participants, artists, etc.), If not, why? Yes. Concert attendance was 280, which exceeded our projection of 270. Sundin Hall was almost full. Ticket sales were overall equally balanced between full price and reduced price admissions (offered to seniors, students and low income persons). We also provided free admission for approximately 30 persons. We met our participation goals for the chorus. We had projected participation by 48 chorus members. In fact 51 chorus members made the performance happen, including handling logistics, publicity, music selection, program design, rehearsal planning and preparing audiovisual materials, as well as making the music on the night of the show. We also had wonderful participation from other artists. Five former directors of the chorus - Maren Amdal (2006-12), Michele Edwards (2000-06), Jane Ramseyer Miller (1997-2000), Mary Preus (1985-1995) and Nancy Cox (founding director, 1976 on), were part of the project. Each former director conducted a piece during the performance, as well as sharing personal statements during the evening about Calliope's impact and significance in the women's choral movement. Collaborating composer Linda Kachelmeier took part in the premiere of her piece ""Everyone Sang."" Collaborating pianist Jessica Schroeder provided piano accompaniment throughout. Did your outreach efforts result in community diversity? If not, what would you do differently in the future? Our audience survey revealed that the audience embodied diversity in several respects. The survey showed that audience was composed of persons from all age groups, from under 18 to over 65. Audience members who responded to the survey identified with a range of sexual orientations, including lesbian, bisexual, asexual and heterosexual. Income diversity was demonstrated through the mix of full price, reduced price and free admissions. Our survey of chorus members confirmed that the chorus embodies diversity in several respects. The chorus includes women in all age groups from 18 to 65 plus. Members identified as lesbian, bisexual, queer, asexual, other and heterosexual in orientation. In what ways did you meet your goals for making your project open and accessible to all who might wish to participate? We have steadily broadened chorus membership by outreach at Pride and other LGBT-friendly events. A variety of musical abilities are welcome in the chorus and we provided multiple ways of learning the repertoire for those unable to read music. Both our rehearsal and performance venues are physically accessible. We provided low-price and free admission for audience members. We also provided free or reduced chorus memberships to women unable to afford the regular dues. Nine of our 51 members received free membership this season and 24 members paid reduced dues. No audience member or chorus member was turned away because of inability to pay. Quantitative: 280 people attended the concert and 58 singers and other artists participated in the performance.

Clubhouse participants had 27 opportunities during the grant year to work on art projects; learn new skills; experience teamwork and personal excellence; and, put on an art exhibit! The challenge to Jammin’ Art is that the population that participates in Clubhouse Recovery is very diverse in age, skill level, attention span, and ability to cope with the learning process. Some participants are fine with just getting instructions and they go off on their own, others need almost one-on-one guidance and achieving that balance keeps the experience dynamic. The Clubhouse Coordinator, now in her second year, has learned a lot related to group dynamics and motivation and has incorporated that into the program for 2017. Jammin’ Arts serves the community it was designed for – adults living with mental illness and there is great interest in our disability community in having the program be successful. The challenge is getting people to the Clubhouse in Stillwater. Most participants qualify for Metro Mobility but, depending on how the request for rides to Clubhouse is presented to the State for approval, many times it is not approved because it appears as recreational rather than therapeutic. The Clubhouse Coordinator and her supervisor are going to make a more concerted effort to present the program to County case managers and help them understand the therapeutic role the program plays in their client’s lives and the success the program has experienced. With the artist community we have been able to find artists who are also teachers and that has greatly benefited program participants. The Art Exhibit has been a great motivator for clients and family and teachers who attend enjoy and appreciate the event. During the period of this grant 30 adults with mental illness have experienced the joy and satisfaction of participating in art experiences in a supportive environment. More than 80 friends and family benefited from an exceptional art exhibit of works by their family member with mental illness.",,2800,"Other, local or private",6430,,"Robert Johnson, Dean Howard, Jim Ellis, Mike McCain, Theresa Burke Cosgriff, Erin Feigal, Karin Housely, Wendee Jones, John Mielke, Susan Miles, San Raleigh, John Stoxen, Gary Westeen",0.00,"Canvas Health","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Jammin' Art, a 25 session visual art project serving up to 20 adults with mental illness in the Clubhouse Recovery program.

We provided an avenue for local resident to be a part of in theatre; We did pull off a high quality and affordable show to our community; We engaged community members by volunteering to be part of the show, volunteers in the show development, and volunteer drivers to get people to the show; We expanded the knowledge of Centre Stage Theatre as 7 of our actors were new to Centre Stage plus the expanded coverage in the newspaper made us well known in the community; A sense of community was developed as we all came together, in some difficult situations, and went above and beyond to pull together a quality production. We had some difficult times with our new director and without help from the community, this production could have failed. This productions was mainly for adults and that is the group we hit. We had enough adults try out to make sure we had the right person in the right role and the audience we had hoped would come did. Our actual audience numbers were down from what we would like to have seen, but overall we had a good turnout for the production.

Ten nonprofit organizations will participate in post-show discussions and assist us in providing answers to audience questions and giving ideas on how people can become a part of the solution. Anticipated outcomes will be evaluated through the use of audience surveys in playbills, gauging of audience reactions in post-show talkback/panel discussions and feedback from nonprofit representatives as to audience response. Engagement will also be measured through social media analytics, reposts, shares and comments.","Artistic success was defined as our ability to touch the hearts of audiences through powerful performances, which we did. Our five actors and thirteen artists/production team members touched the hearts of audience members by bringing to life the heart-wrenching stories of the five main characters and the supporting characters. The intimate atmosphere and the fast-paced, emotional storytelling of the performance was a strength of our artistic process. Audiences were spellbound and shocked to learn that we have unseen youth experiencing homelessness and abuse right in our midst. Representatives from fifteen local nonprofits, whose work revolves around the issues of homeless youth, engaged actively with eager and interested audience members at the performances by providing resources and information, answering questions and participating in post-show talkback discussions. The nonprofit representatives validated to the audience the truth of the stories in the play and deepened audience members' understanding of the issues surrounding youth homelessness. We created further awareness through information and resources on our website and in the playbill, as well as through thought-provoking posts on our Facebook page. Comments received in person, on Facebook and in the 115 audience surveys we received were all positive. Many of the comments stated that the script was strong and well-crafted and that the actors' portrayals were powerful and accurate. We also received many comments of thanks to us for raising awareness of the homeless youth in our communities, as well as sentiments that more people should see the play. Some of the venues added their own initiatives, including a youth group attending the performance and sleeping outside in a tent city afterwards. Another venue collected donations ahead of time for the nonprofits attending their performance, which is an action step we could suggest to venues in future productions. Other audience members demonstrated their inspiration gained from the performance by donating to our nonprofit partners as well as to Chain Reaction Theatre Project in support of our work. In addition, we increased our ""Likes"" on Facebook by 83% over the run of the production, and we had 66 new requests to be on our mailing list. We repeatedly had requests to have performances in additional locations, including suggestions that we should perform in schools and colleges. With additional time, resources and cast/crew agreement, we could have implemented a longer performance run. We successfully met our intended community, and our outreach efforts resulted in community diversity. Our goal was to perform for at least 350 people in seven locations with an average of fifty people per show. We actually performed for 558 people in nine locations with an average of sixty-two people per show. Audience members were ages ten on up, (including a group of Girl Scouts and a youth group), and varied in gender, ethnicity and socio-economic status. At our performances, we had twenty representatives from fifteen nonprofits, varying in age, gender and ethnicity. Our five actors, two female and three male, ranged in age from 16-22, with ethnicities consisting of two European Americans, two African Americans and one Latino. Although our outreach efforts did result in community diversity, we were hopeful some of the homeless youth from the nonprofits we partnered with would have come. However, despite invitations and encouragement from nonprofit staff and Chain Reaction Theatre Project, none came. This was actually expected, given Chain Reaction Theatre Project's knowledge and experience about their precarious lives. All performances were financially accessible with a suggested ticket price of $15, pay as you are able. Our average ticket price paid was $12.82, with some audience members attending for free, and some choosing to show their support by paying $100. All venues were wheelchair accessible. Playbills were in larger print. We had one ASL and one audio described performance. Unfortunately, despite promotion in our publicity materials, on VSA's calendar and to Bread of Life Deaf Church, there were no audience members who needed either service. 115 audience members stated in audience surveys that after experiencing the powerful and emotional stories of homeless youth in our communities that were so accurately brought to life by the actors, as well as participating in talkback discussions with the nonprofit representatives, they feel inspired to take action in being part of the solution by volunteering or donating.",,6250,"Other, local or private",11250,,"Jack Neveaux, Karin Van Dyke, Shelley Smith, David Durkee, Jenn Herron",0.00,"Chain Reaction Theatre Project","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the production of Invisible, an original play based on true stories of homeless suburban youth in Minnesota.

Post-show feedback from artists to determine who may audition or work with Chameleon again and why or why not.","The number of artists that are new to working with Chameleon and this part of the metro area has continued to increase. For example, more than half of the cast and crew for Macbeth were people that had never worked with Chameleon before and predominantly work in the core cities of Minneapolis and St Paul. All of the artists, new and old, have expressed interest in working with Chameleon in the future and one of the new Macbeth cast members auditioned and was cast for a role in a show for our upcoming season immediately after the conclusion of Macbeth. As part of the Chameleon way of doing things artists are always asked to stretch their roles beyond their norm, to a successful conclusion. The shows challenged both the audience and artists involved. For instance, for Macbeth (a show that is very familiar to most people) we produced the show in a time period and functionally through the use of set, sound, and lighting that challenged the norm. While not everyone agreed that they preferred this rendition, they all agreed that we succeeded in our goal. Our artists always involve a wide range of ages and backgrounds. The range goes from veterans of the theatre scene to newer and often younger artists. We are always open to all ethnicities and wherever possible do gender neutral casting. For example, in Macbeth, a young female was cast to portray several male characters. Our productions are always accessible to audience members of all ages and backgrounds and to those with disabilities. We regularly have audience members attend that are in wheelchairs or use the center’s hearing assist system. We offered ASL and audio described performances upon request, but did not have any request this year. It is always our intent that by producing a wide variety of types of shows, our audience members likewise involve a diverse group. One success was in attracting audience for Catch Me If You Can. This relatively new show, which hasn’t been performed much, played to sold out houses and exceeded our projected attendance goal by about 420 attendees. This included a large group from a senior facility and another from a school.

The primary artistic goals are listed below in detail. In order to assist in evaluating these areas, actors were asked to fill out a post-show survey. Surveys were anonymous and actors were given four days to complete them. Parents of youth actors were asked to fill out the survey with their child. A total of 23 surveys were completed out of 49 actors. In the future, participants will be given a longer amount of time to complete surveys (at least one week). Surveys will also be available beginning on the final production date. This will be done in attempts to increase the number of completed surveys. Each of the artistic goals (listed above) are discussed below in detail. Goal 1.) Assisting actors in growing their performance skills. This goal was achieved through choosing a production that had the right amount of challenge for the actors/participants (100% of survey takers agreed with this) and through hiring production staff who were knowledgeable in their skill set (78% of survey takers strongly agreed and 22% agreed). In addition to staff reporting that actors improved in various areas, each actor who filled out a survey felt they improved in multiple areas. Below lists the percent of survey takers who felt they improved in each area (listed highest to lowest); 96% improved in meeting new people and social skills. 87% improved in singing and music comprehension. 83% improved in acting and emoting AND in working in a group environment. 61% improved in direction following and listening skills. 52% improved in memorization skills. Goal 2.) Fostering a place where actors could contemplate themes within the production. This goal was achieved by encouraging actors to consider how they would feel if they were put in a similar situation as the character they were playing in the production or the characters others played in the production. Survey results were used to assess if actors felt the production helped them contemplate various themes. Below lists the results (listed highest to lowest); 91% contemplated gender stereotypes. 78% contemplated friendship. 74% contemplated charity AND financial hardship. 70% contemplated gay/lesbian themes AND loss due to death of a loved one. 61% contemplated self-realization. 4% declined to answer due to age of youth participant Goal 3.) Increasing audience sizes. This goal was achieved through the selection of a popular show title, quality performance from actors and through a large amount of show advertising and marketing. Overall ticket sales were up from an average of 14 tickets per actor to 21.9 tickets per actor. A total of 1071 tickets were purchased. This number met the lower end of the audience goal of 900-1900 persons. In the future we look to grow these numbers by beginning on-foot at least 6 weeks prior to performances. The project came close in successfully reaching all participants, audiences and communities that it set out to reach. The communities and the success at which they were reached are listed below in detail. Community 1.) The project projected to serve 50-80 youth and adult actors primarily from Dakota County communities. The project fell slightly short of this goal, reaching only 49 actors. Though 54 actors were cast, 5 actors choose not to participate. Participants were residents of the projected communities with 8% residing in Lakeville, 12% in Rosemount, 24% in Farmington, 51% in other communities in Dakota County and 5% residing outside Dakota County. After review, it is believed prominent reasons why less actors were reached than projected included the following; actors/parents were not comfortable with adult language in the show. The Children’s Castle Theater Board feels keeping the adult language in the production was important in order to keep the integrity of the show and would not change this if the project was repeated. Community 2.) The project projected to serve 900 to 1900 audience members. Though this goal was met with 1071 audience members (setting a new Children’s Castle Theater record for tickets sold per actor), it was a lower number than desired. All marketing methods in the original narrative were met with the exception of promoting the production at Farmington Dew Days. This was not done because Children’s Castle Theater chose to market a show that was closer to the time of Dew Days instead. In review, both shows should have been marketed during this time. Additional marketing methods used that were not listed in the original narrative included; attending local Farmers Market, online promo videos, live interview and performance on FOX 9 Morning Buzz and general street marketing. Community 3.) The project projected to provide contract employment for 4+ teaching artists. This community reach was exceeded as the production created contract employment for 4 teaching artists as well as 8 additional local artists who assisted with the production in non-teaching, performance/tech capacities. Overall, the project met the diversity discussed in the narrative. It reached actors from across Dakota County at various levels of experience and ages. Actors ranged in age from 6 to 50+ with no one age group (12 and under, 13-17, 18+) making up a large majority of the cast. The actors also ranged in experience levels from true beginner (first theater production) to professional actor (has previously been paid to perform at local theaters). Production staff worked to make the project open to all who might wish to participate by creating open audition and performance environments that were acceptant of all persons regardless of age, race, gender, sexual identity/orientation, learning/comprehension style, mobility, etc. The cast included actors who identified with various age groups, racial backgrounds and learning styles (actors identifying as having Asperger’s, Depression and Bi-polar traits). The first most significant outcome of this project was that it helped actors contemplate themes they may not normally think about; themes including gender stereotypes, charity, loss due to death, and gay/lesbian themes (results listed earlier). The second was that actors were able to participate in an activity that included persons of varying ages and experience levels.",,19160,"Other, local or private",24160,,"Heidi Schmidt, Jeff Carter, Tammy Nienaber",0.00,"Children's Castle Theater","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to produce and present eight performances of Billy Elliot the Musical.

Our focus is to inspire reflection and dialogue with our audiences about the significance of the music, culture and events of 1966 and how they are reflected in the music, culture and events 50 years later. We will collect audience surveys after each performance to use for evaluating the success of the project. We will also conduct 2 after-show Q and A's in which we will engage the audiences directly in offering us their feedback, impressions and suggestions.","We were very pleased with the outcome of our artistic vision for this project. By setting the performance within the context of a 1966 radio show, we were able to present the music, news and cultural events in a current and relevant manner fitting of the day, resonant in its similarities and its differences between the year and our modern media world 50 years later. We were blessed to have had with us two outstanding musicians who helped deliver the depth and width of the music from the era as we moved from folk to classical through popular and cult favorites, expressing the levity and the gravity of that seminal period in the country's/world's experience. We successfully employed humor throughout juxtaposed with the seriousness of the issues facing us during the time period and we repeatedly heard from audience members how much they were struck with the impression that ""nothing really has changed since then."" We felt that our choices for musicians were excellent but, would in the future, choose a person with minority heritage, particularly since we were able to create a piece with great crossover between races, genders and socio-economic lines. Our artistic process as collaborators is one that has proven to result in projects that bloom during our working months into a well-balanced, complimentary piece of musical exposition and theatrical expression of significant merit. Our only real challenge was finding the time in all of our busy schedules to complete the project, though we were able to do so. The fact that each of the four of us have very distinct yet complimentary gifts to bring to the table, makes our work together particularly satisfying, though sometimes challenging when seeking consensus on ideas. But as we are all professionals, we find our way to the best possible solutions. We were able, through various radio shows, social media, advertising and target calls, to reach audiences in our own demographic and older and younger. We had a healthy showing of all ages and cultural backgrounds and considered our outreach efforts to be successful as a result. We also offered, through the theater, a pay-as-able feature and so those who would not ordinarily be able to attend our show, were able to acquire affordable tickets for themselves and friends and families. And as always, we comfortably accommodated several members with disabilities. We were happy to have reached our audience participation goals and through talkbacks and direct feedback, we understood that our messages throughout the show were well received, even though they were offered merely through the events and music of the day. Most of the audience (90%) remarked about how relevant that year's events mirrored the issues and concerns of our lives today.",,19205,"Other, local or private",24205,,"Diana Grasselli, Sue Haas, Barbara Malas, Maya Winterherd",0.00,"Chronofon Productions","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for '66, a multi-media concert focusing on the musical, cultural, social and political events which occurred during the year 1966.

We will evaluate our anticipated outcomes if we meet our audience/participant count, and if we receive positive responses in our post-production participating artist surveys. We will ask all artists involved in the production to participate in anonymous, long-form surveys where they will be asked to respond to both open-ended questions where they may narratively describe their collaborative experiences, as well as multiple choice questions where they may rank their experiences in a more quantitative manner.","Yes, we feel that we achieved our artistic goals with this project, which culminated in a 6 performance run at Red Eye. We feel we created a new performance work that integrated puppets and masks as “integral storytelling elements” in order to “illuminate the major questions and themes within the work”, and that we successfully integrated “ensemble-driven storytelling, masks, and puppetry to illuminate our key questions”. We feel our success was supported by positive responses from critics and audiences: ""[I]f, like me, you enjoy something a little unusual and fantastical, something that is alternately funny and serious, ridiculous, decadent, and fabulous ... get thee to Red Eye Theater and give yourself over to the magic..”-Liz Byron, Aisle Say Twin Cities blog (https://aislesaytwincities.com/2016/12/03/the-sleeping-beauty-in-the-wood/) “This devastatingly beautiful, compassionate, witty, subversive, and exquisitely imagined play about the struggle for human dignity is not playing long (it closes December 11), but if you can get down to the Red Eye Theater in time, go see it. It will blow your mind and break your heart at the same time.” -Kit Bix, Talkin’ Broadway Regional Reviews blog (https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/regional/minn/minn534.html). Jack Zipes, nationally-recognized scholar of fairy tales/professor emeritus at University of Minnesota wrote an e-mail to the artistic director: “Personally, I felt that the staging and the acting were superb. The spoof of Perrault's ‘Sleeping Beauty’ and other variants was very well done, and the entire question of gender stereotypes and gender bending was delightfully provocative. I think you have a good company and look forward to your new productions.” We also feel that we successfully curated “a rehearsal environment of collective artistic ownership,” as illuminated in the responses from the anonymous surveys that our collaborators took post-production, where 100% strongly agreed or agreed that they felt they “participated in a rehearsal process that was inclusive and collaborative” and felt that their “ideas, thoughts, and opinions were heard and listened to during the rehearsal process.” The biggest challenge that we faced was that this was our largest production to date – our previous production was a two-person play at a small cabaret venue for a one week run, using a small group of long-time collaborators. This time, we were in a full-sized venue with a two week run, with several new collaborators (and a much larger cast and design team). We think at least one more week of rehearsal would be necessary when we undertake a similar project, in order to give our new performers/collaborators more time to get used to our non-traditional rehearsal process, and also give us more time to dramaturgically work out a challenging new script on our feet. We would also not have performances in the month of chilly/snowy December, which is not a good time to curate new audiences for unknown work (see 5). We feel we reached our intended community for participants; numbers of participating artists were a few higher than originally estimated. During audition process, we encouraged artists of all backgrounds, ethnicities, abilities and gender identities to audition, and we didn’t require a paper resume and head shot. All roles were gender, age, and race blind cast. Over half of participants were women and at least a quarter identified as GLBTQ; participants came from range of zip codes/neighborhoods. While we didn’t reach our audience projection of 240, in hind sight we feel that this estimation might have been too ambitious for a theatre company of our size; we feel that the weather and timing of the production was also a huge detriment (see 5). In future, a projection of 200-225 might be a more realistic goal. 192 people purchased tickets online; 181 attended. 26 filled out the audience surveys included in program. Surveys showed that audiences came from diverse neighborhoods/zip codes and socio-economic backgrounds. On the contrary, 92% of our audiences identified as Caucasian; 92% had bachelors or graduate degree. Half attend 12+ performance events/yr., and half attended because they knew someone in the production. Facebook proved to be the most effective platform in which they heard about the show. We notified several GLBTQ organizations and groups about this queer- and feminist-themed production, dropped off postcards and posters at many area queer-friendly coffee houses, and posted ticket deals on queer-inclusive pages on Facebook. Some audience identified as non-binary in the audience surveys, and we recognized several audience members from the local queer community. However, in order to strengthen/grow this community, we need to officially partner with other GLBTQ groups and organizations on future productions. Additionally, while we contacted undergraduate theatre programs about the production, we feel that in order to grow our community here we also need to partner with theatre-oriented schools/youth organizations, by offering free ticket deals to organizations like Project SUCCESS, and schools like Saint Paul Conservatory of Performing Arts, Perpich Center for Arts Education, and South High School. Our performance venue was ADA-accessible, with easy wheelchair access and walker accessibility, plentiful street parking, and located on multiple bus lines. We informed VSA Minnesota of the production, and we advertised on all promotional materials that an ASL interpreted performance would be arranged (with 3 weeks’ notice), and that large print programs would be made available (with 48 hours’ notice). We educated our audience about our rehearsal process on our blog at least once per week, we promoted an open rehearsal, we included director’s notes in the program, and we hosted 2 artist-and-audience talk-back sessions. We felt these ventures were successful in making our work accessible to an audience, and would continue all of this in the future. Didn’t quite meet audience goal; exceeded participant goal. Asked participants to do anonymous survey post-show; 6 responded. 100% strongly agreed or agreed they “participated in a rehearsal process that was inclusive and collaborative” and felt their “ideas, thoughts, and opinions were heard and listened to during the rehearsal process.” 100% said they would work on another project with the company.",,5600,"Other, local or private",10600,,"Joel Sass, Leif Jurgensen, Marianne Remedios, John Wald, Beth Wald Hanzal",0.00,"Collective Unconscious Performance","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Spun Sugar, a new production inspired by variations of the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale, collaboratively re-imagined through a queer lens using puppetry and mask work.

We anticipate that the greater visibility of artistic works from underrepresented communities will draw more people to the center to view the exhibits as well as participate in community engagement events. A sign-in and feedback book will be available throughout the year at the front desk and feedback forms will be available at all community events for attendees to fill out and return to the hosts with invitations to sign in and comment placed next to the exhibits. In addition, feedback forms will be sent to all participating artists in order to get feedback about levels of engagement and artistic quality of the exhibits.","Our artistic goals, as stated in our original application, were defined by a focus on artists from specific cultural communities whose work is unique, thoughtful, and engaging. Artists who have remarkable talent or facility in their chosen medium and who are seriously committed to their practice will be of particular interest. Emerging or young artists whose work shows special promise and who are looking to pursue professional careers as artists will also be sought out. The Free to be Different Together program successfully met these artistic goals by showcasing a diverse and unique collection of artists over the course of the program. Based on the response from the community, it was apparent that the art experience was both provocative and valuable. For example, with the community engagement event for our first exhibit around LGBTQ issues, the promotional flyer language received push back from some leaders in our community, however this led to more dialogue and conversation around the LGBTQ issues. On another occasion, an artist featured in our second exhibition displayed work around the topic of racism. Audience members were initially offended by some of the work and yet, through conversation a deeper understanding of artistic expression around difficult topics was explored. Our main challenge was in developing community engagement events around each of the exhibits. Each exhibit was truly unique… featuring different artists and themes. One of our challenges with the events was understanding what type of event best provided access to the appropriate community. Also, at different times of year the activity in and around the building would vary. Should we do an engagement event over lunch? In the evening? Should we bring in other artists for dialogue, or focus on the artists displayed on the walls? Our process included much experimentation and trial. We varied the styles of the community engagement events, almost always with positive outcomes. We were able to determine that the most beneficial community subset to engage were the people who work in the building on a daily basis. This community is diverse and interested. When we hosted community engagement events at lunch time, with a shared meal and shared conversation with the featured artists and the project curator, we observed the most interest and participation from our community. In the future, as we extend this program, we have learned that informal gatherings for those who work in the building around the artwork with the curator and the artists would be received the best. Participants in our events expressed gratitude for day-time events that they could attend, as well they seemed eager to learn more about art and understanding how they could incorporate art into their programs. They expressed a lot of appreciation and admiration of the artists that we featured. Over the course of this program we successfully reached our intended audience and artists engaging 13 artists, about 160 audience members at engagement events, and over 40,000 people with access to the exhibition displays in the Center for Changing Lives lobby throughout the year. The exhibitions were free and open to the public during all open hours of the building, and each engagement event was also free and open to the public. We successfully reached our intended engagement of diverse, underrepresented local artists. We accomplished this by successfully carrying out all of the scheduled programming each summarized below. Exhibit 1: June 13- August 12. LGBTQ Artists -- Photography by Anna Min, Community conversation with Anna and artist Andrea Jenkins of the University of Minnesota Libraries for Transgender History project on July 26, 2017. Exhibit 2: September 27- Nov 25. Youth of Color Artists-- Photography by Denetrick Powers, Mixed media by Lynette Simpson and drawings by Annette Hughes. Community Engagement event on November 2, 2016 with the artists and spoken word by Chante Lidell. Exhibit 3: December 12, 2016 - Feb 5, 2017. Refugees and recent Immigrant Artists-- Photography by Selma Fernandez Richter and Fabric Arts by Sara Kidane, Tsehaye Abebe, Bekelu Haile, Rita Butoyi from the Sub-Saharan African Youth and Family Services with community engagement event on January 25, 2017. Tricia, the curator presented about the art program and spoke facilitated conversations on the value of arts and participants were very engaged, even making suggestions about the future direction of the program. Exhibit 4: February 10- April 24-- Muslim Artists: Mixed media by Khadija Charif and paintings by Aziz Osman who both presented at the Community engagement event on May 5, 2017. We were pleased with the level of diversity we were able to represent within our exhibitions. The theme of the program was “Free to be Different Together.” In the same space were able to represent youth artists, Somali artists, LGBTQ artists, artists who are emerging with artists who are more established. We also featured non-traditional artists and a few who have never exhibited before. Most importantly, our community was reflected through the art works displayed at the Center. All the artists allowed us to have the works for extra time (1-2 weeks longer than contracted period) as we had on occasion people who saw the exhibit and asked if we could keep it a bit longer for them to bring other people in their networks to see. The exhibitions were most successful in creating a platform for dialogue and connection around challenging topics.

Strengths included the following: quality of musicians participating, both vocally and instrumentally (i.e. please see final program on our web site); Ritz Theater venue was optimal for this grass-roots opera set in a hillside town outside of Rome; stage design and production aligned simply but well with opera story; enhanced audience exposure for the organization resulted; new geographical / neighborhood relationship in Northeast Minneapolis; opportunity and ability to bring Alassandro Quarta from Rome, Italy to Minnesota to provide musical direction to the orchestra and singers. An additional strength of program included the more intimate pre-show dialogue between Jon Cranney and Alessandro Quarta and audience members. Jon and Alessandro provided cultural background and perspective on the ""Commedia dell'arte"" (i.e. the Comedy of Craft) that emerged in 16th century Italy. They took questions from audience members, shared their experience of pulling this unique performance together, and explained why they were drawn to participate in this first-ever production. Challenges included the following: unexpected costs associated with securing musical direction from Alassandro Quarta (i.e. organization has never before had to navigate the Visa process); some technical glitches with sub-title production; and sometimes unclear communications / expectations around musician rehearsal commitments. As a result of these lessons learned, Consortium Carissimi will do a few things differently, hence forth. First, if ever we have a need again for sub-titles, we will ensure the program used is fully compatible with the computer type (i.e. PC versus Apple). In addition, we will codify a rehearsal calendar at the outset of an ambitious program and ensure clear communication and understanding of when musicians are obligated to attend rehearsals (particularly dress rehearsals) as a condition of participating in program. Finally, with more planning time, if ever we bring another musician from a foreign country, we will navigate the Visa application process more cost-effectively. Consortium Carissimi reached the community of audience, participants and artists that was anticipated in its proposal. This is not to say the organization is content with its audience reach. We will continue to discount seniors' admissions and to allow all students into performances free of charge. However, we will also continue to think creatively about how we might continue to expand our audience reach in terms of greater diversity. For our organization, diversity refers to the richness of human differences including socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, language, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, religion, geography, disability, age and individual aspects such as personality, learning styles and life experiences of all kinds in its musicians, board members, volunteer staff and audience. While our musicians and audience may not appear to be as racially diverse as we would like, we know they all bring a range of diverse life experiences and individual human differences that create a rich environment for their collaborative work and artistic experience. In addition, the opportunity to have Alessandro Quarta from Italy to assist with musical direction created a unique opportunity for both musicians and audience to interact with an Italian national musician.

Through this successful artistic endeavor, Cultural Society of Filipino Americans succeeded in fulfilling its main mission of promoting and sharing the Filipino culture, arts and heritage. Ethnic dances and music of the different regions of the Philippines were showcased through movements, sounds, rhythms, stage settings and costumes. There were a total of 59 dancers, ages ranging from 5 to 78 years and over 40 production stage crew and reception team member volunteers. With this project, Cultural Society of Filipino Americans was able to accomplish the following: 1. Artistically, this project provided the opportunity to express artistic talents, confidence and pride in our racial identities. Individuals, some of whom have never performed in front of a large crowd, showcased and featured their musical abilities through movements and steps of different beats and rhythms. The choreographers and dance masters recognized that each performer had different musical and dance backgrounds and training (if any), hence, modifications were made without sacrificing the meaning of the dance. For some, more attention had to be given in order to provide proper execution of the steps and expression. The opportunity to perform and to express one’s self especially one’s ethnicity through dance on a big stage and the audience’s positive reaction through their applauses was an unforgettable experience for the performers. 2. As students of ethnic dancing and music, movements and sounds had to be learned and understood to properly convey the message of the dance. Although half of the dancers were experienced and veteran members of the Cultural Society of Filipino Americans Dance Troupe, all performers had to understand and learn the background of the dances in order to successfully relay to the audience the significance and essence of what was being performed; which we were able to achieved. 3. As members of the organization with the main mission of promoting the Filipino culture, PAMANA X was able to share with and impart to the Filipino community and to fellow Minnesotans (to both the viewers and performers) the wealth and vastness of our colorful heritage. Through the dances, music and costumes, one could recognize and understand the way of life and belief of Philippine people, the sceneries and the natural resources of a nation and the influences of its colonizers and surrounding nations. 4. As parents and teachers, colorful dances and traditions that are part of our identity as a people were passed on to the youth who watched the show and also to those who participated in the production. Like previous PAMANA, it was encouraging to hear young performers telling the organizers that they can't wait to perform again and want to invite more children to be involved in the next production of PAMANA. Cultural Society of Filipino Americans knows that understanding and appreciation of one’s ethnic roots is vital in contributing better self-esteem and producing more well-rounded and productive members of this society. A big majority of the audience were members of the Filipino community in Minnesota. They shared with us that watching PAMANA X, brought about a sense of pride and elation for being a member of the Filipino community here in the Midwest. Some parents and grandparents brought their children and grandchildren to introduce them to the Philippine arts and culture in an entertaining setting. Migrant Filipinos and Filipino-Americans who longed for the music and the dances of their motherland, Minnesotans with established Filipino connections, and scholars of Philippine and Asian history and culture came that evening to support the event and to be entertained. Minnesotans, even those of Filipino lineage, learned through PAMANA X that the Philippines have a diverse and vast culture influenced by both the Western and Eastern worlds. Cultural Society of Filipino Americans reached out to Filipinos and Minnesotans who are performing artists, who wanted an opportunity to perform and to express themselves through dance, and who wanted to share artistic and organizational skills. Flyers, social media and personal communications were used to announce PAMANA X and to recruit dancers and volunteers. There were no auditions held, only dedication and commitment to show up for rehearsals was required. There were several non-Filipinos that participated in the production, which encouraged diversity. To launch the production, we invited community and non-community members to watch the previous PAMANA production and volunteer opportunities and artistic and production description for PAMANA X were presented. Sign-up sheets were passed around for those interested to be part of the production. The practices and the performance itself were held at the Philippine Center of Minnesota (CSFA office's location) and Ames Center respectively; both are in central and accessible locations within the metro area that ensured travel convenience and safety for participants. Cultural Society of Filipino Americans sold 778 tickets but 685 attendees were recorded. We were hoping to have about 1,000 attendees but since we only have 5 months to recruit, rehearse, prepare, advertise, and sell tickets, we failed to reach the numbers we forecasted. We agreed that we should have started early and allowed at least a year to plan, prepare, and execute the production in order to reach our goal and to have a better outcome of the production. Learning this, we will definitely take this into account for our next PAMANA production. Cultural Society of Filipino Americans reached out to the community to find out who wanted to watch the show but could not financially afford it; 30 tickets were given to students and elderly individuals. Elderly, disabled and wheelchair users were able to use Ames Center’s ramps and elevators and had designated seats. During the show, souvenir programs were available to guide the members of the audience to the individual dances and backgrounds, the represented regions, historical eras, and foreign influences. The program notes also offered information about the Philippines. PAMANA X gave individuals who otherwise do not participate in art activities, an opportunity to learn and express art in the form of dance. PAMANA X was able to address the longing of the American-Filipino community for a Filipino production that they have not seen for 4 years. Based on an audience survey, about 95% positively changed their attitude about the Philippines because of the production.",,29500,"Other, local or private",34500,,"Ligaya Carlos, Nena Alojado, Rowena Carlson, Lorna Faustino, Bernadette Panaligan, Gary Alexander Paz, Mary Jane Ungemach, Catherine Van Hoecke",0.00,"Cultural Society of Filipino-Americans","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for PAMANA X (ten), a 2-hour dance and music production that showcases authentic Filipino dances, music and costumes; depicts distinct historical periods, geographic areas and cultural influences; and provides an artistic forum for Filipino cultur",2016-03-25,2016-09-10,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Catherine,"Van Hoecke","Cultural Society of Filipino - Americans, Inc.","1380 Frost Ave",Maplewood,MN,55109,"(651) 243-2732 ",cathyvanhoecke@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-662,"Bill Muchow: Artistic, finance, administration; Alejandra Pelinka: Administration, artistic, fundraising; Laura Narhi: Fundraising, administration, organizational development; Paul Eastwold: Disabilities specialist, education, administration; Juliet Parisi: Artistic, education, organizational development; Brenda Lyseng: Administration, education, organizational development; Edna Stevens: Fundraising, computer systems, disabilities specialist.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.",,2 35869,"Community Arts",2016,4300,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3"," ACHF Cultural Heritage","500+ persons attended the event by approx. 30 vendors and several demonstrators with handmade general or European traditional crafts along with European style entertainment.

Our entertainment groups were well received with very positive comments on our surveys. We had dancer and singers representing 3 European countries; Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary. The performers also enjoyed the day. They appreciated the ample space and quality dance floor provided to them. Our craft vendors filled the space allotted with quality items. Their booths were very organized and appealing to the shoppers. Survey comments liked the quality and variety of these handmade items. Overall vendor comments were the best since this annual event started, stating their sales were higher than in previous years, some even selling out of inventory. New this year were volunteers helping vendors bring in and take out their inventory which was very well received by the vendors. Also new this year was live entertainment in the Kids Corner; Frozen Appearance, which were two high school girls who interacted with the children in the characters of Queen Elsa and Princess Anna from the movie Frozen. They were a huge success and helped increase the number of children attending the event. Overall we feel we reached our intended audience. The Czech Heritage Club tracked attendance showing over 620 attended. This includes crafters, entertainers and volunteers directly involved. Local crafters who were able to show their quality wares were able to sell more than in previous years. Survey comments show audience members enjoyed entertainment they normally do not see and enjoyed it very much. Our free event invited guests to bring a non-perishable food item to the food shelf. This resulted in a substantial donation in both food and financial donations to community food shelf. The kitchen of the ballroom served more food than in the past, and were very pleased with the outcome. This result shows that attendees spent enough time at the event to be able to eat a meal in addition to enjoying the entertainment and the crafters. We show that our attendees totaled approximately 620. Audience members were able to shop 25 local vendors with handcrafted items and enjoy European style entertainment groups who do not regularly perform in the community. 95% of audience surveys indicated they were pleased with all the activities, food and layout of the day.",,2304,"Other, local or private",6604,,"Vi Chromy, Stan Chromy, Deb Ziskovsky, Arnie Ziskovsky, Jeanette Kes ",0.00,"Czech Heritage Club","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the seventh annual European Christmas Event featuring traditional folk dancers and singers, artisans and craft vendors and family friendly activities.

We will provide an opportunity to 100 artists to show and sell their work at our venue. We will use a counter at the entrance to the festival, and at both activities tents (kids and art experience). We will provide surveys to all artists, vendors, and sponsors to gauge their experience and we will provide social media interaction for the audience.","Our goal was to bring the literary arts into the visual arts mix this year while continuing the engagement and quality of the artists and activities we offer annually. Our goal to have 100-104 qualified artists was achieved with our jury of 3-D and 2-D experienced judges. We had 120 applications and juried in 100 artists. We were able to bring in 12 authors who shared a tent over the two day festival on a rotating basis. The authors seemed pleased to be there, but if we continue with this in the future we will look at some training/advice on how to engage with our community audience as they were not very active in conversing with the audience coming by. Our community engagement projects went very well with children spending up to two hours in the Children's Art Tent creating their own books and telling a story. The community art project was equally well received with participants age 11 and up spending up to 2 hours on an illuminated letter project and story - 150 participated. Usually we have a large number of participants for this project, however, it was structured to be a deeper project - not a quick add and dash so that may explain the number variance. We will be discussing what the sweet spot is between deeper engagement vs. number of touches for the 2017 festival. Both are valuable. We had a couple of new bands in the Entertainment lineup and they were very well received. One was a 90's throwback band that we hoped would entertain and engage 20-30 somethings at our event and increase their participation. This worked very well and people loved them. We will be bringing them back for 2017 if they are available. The Youth in Art program continues to be a challenge to maintain. This year the change up was to bring elementary art onto the site to start a process of having kids participate at a younger level so that they will continue to be interested in participating as community members as they grow into young adulthood. Working with the schools to make this happen was challenging due to the fact the festival is held when school is out. Also because of the outdoor venue it was difficult to display the large number of pieces that were provided to the festival. We will be revisiting this part of the project for 2017 to find a better way to manage it. We successfully reached our intended community of people from the City of Eagan and surrounding area... Our attendance was down a little due to excessive heat on Saturday which was disappointing, but not unexpected. The festival is located on ADA accessible grounds, and one thing that was noticed is that there seemed to be more people in wheelchairs then in the past - so the asphalt path around the artists was very important along with the accessible bathroom facility. The number of different media among the artists increased slightly this year and several had multimedia applications - selection of artists will become more challenging if that trend in applications continues. The audience at the event by observation tends to be more middle aged and older people in the past, but this year there were many younger people and young families (strollers) then in the past so this will be kept in mind for 2017 as well. Marketing materials were deliberately left in all public buildings possible where many different people would be including the library, all city buildings, many area businesses and hotels. The festival markets to and opens the door as wide as possible to attract all people from this community. With 7000-8000 people on-site it would be wonderful to have a way to track cultural diversity more accurately and we would welcome any recommendations. Over the two days several different languages were heard including Hmong, Spanish, Pashtun, Russian and Ukrainian. It would be difficult to say how many cultures were represented among the attendees. The festival has continued to grow for several years by an average of 10% so in 2016 8500 people were expected. The number attending was just under 7300 - due mostly to a heat index of 107 degrees on the Saturday of the festival. There were 123 artists and sponsors on-site. 400 children created books and 150 ages 11 and up made Illuminated Letters. 85% of artists will be re-applying in 2017.",,42425,"Other, local or private",47425,,"Karen Sames, Juliet Parisi, Barb Graycarek, Yvette Johnson, Dick Pletcher, Kathy Thompson, Wayne Sames, Jerri Neddermeyer, Wanda Borman",0.00,"Dakota Center for the Arts AKA Eagan Art Festival","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the 22nd annual Eagan Art Festival, a free two-day outdoor art festival featuring a broad range of artists, entertainment and arts activities for all ages.

We would like to show how art is a unifier where every person, whether performing or listening, can appreciate the feeling of music. The Dakota Valley Symphony evaluates the success of a concert artistically by the judgment of the Music Directors and the feedback of audience members and performers. Financial success will be determined in part by concert attendance and whether our budget goals are attained.","Our artistic goals were to: 1) Present a variety of repertoire of different genre and periods, 2) Offer the audience, performers, students, parents and families the powerful experience of a live performance of provocative choral and orchestral music, 3) Provide an opportunity for young singers to perform with a community orchestra. We were able to achieve all of these goals during this concert. The repertoire was indeed from different genres and periods. Our performance included a piece from 1840, a piece from 1925, a piece from 1974 and a world premiere of a piece written by one of our very own performers. The audience, performers, students, parents and families all enjoyed this live and powerful performance of choral and orchestral music. This performance included 2 high school orchestras and gave these young singers a chance to perform with a community orchestra. It is always difficult to pull together that many performers together for a concert, but having a new chorus director this year has helped tremendously. The chorus director worked with Lakeville North High School Chorus, Lakeville South Chorus and the Dakota Valley Symphony Chorus while Steve Ramsey was able to focus on the Orchestra. The result was a stunning assembly of performers for this Gala 30th Anniversary Celebration. If we were to repeat a similar concert we may add a few more rehearsals just to pull it together with the Orchestra and Chorus a little more. We had intended to reach out to 660 members of the Dakota County area and were able to achieve an audience of about 550 from all around the South Suburban area of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. We had about 100 less audience members than we had planned on, but from all who attended there were only good reviews. Also, the number of artists was slightly lower than we had intended, but did not make enough of a change to affect the performance. We had intended on 170 youth singers, but ended up having about 140. Also, we had intended on having 40 singers from the Dakota Valley Symphony Chorus and only had about 24. We're not sure why attendance was down for this performance, but we always aim to reach out to as many members of the community as we can. There could always be a little more diversity in the audience and artists. We welcome performers and audience members of all ages, races, cultures, etc. to be involved with our concerts. There is not much we can do to boost the diversity except advertise more in certain areas. Large print programs, being close to the Burnsville Transit Station and a fully accessible facility for those with challenges of movement makes it easier for all members of the community to be part of the Orchestra or Chorus or attend our performances. 550 audience members came to hear our performance celebrating our 30th year anniversary which was performed by 24 singers from Dakota Valley Symphony, 140 youth singers from Lakeville North and Lakeville South High Schools, 62 instrumentalists and a soloist.

Overall we were successful in achieving our artistic goals. The Spring Procession took place on Saturday, June 4th, from 3 to 4:30 pm. We met first at Neighborhood House to teach the songs to people who came to process with us. We gave performances at six prearranged sites: El Burrito Mercado (market and restaurant), El Buen Sabor, La Guadalupana (corn roasting stand), Riverview Library, Icy Cup, Wabasha Brewery. The first three goals had to do with impacting West Side, Spanish-speaking, and non-Spanish speaking audiences. We definitely met these goals for the audiences we served. However, we did not have as many audience members as we had hoped for because there were fewer people out in the streets and at the 2nd and 3rd sites than we had anticipated. Goals 4 and 5 had to do with benefits to the West Side community, and we also met these goals. Seeing posters hung in businesses and public places in the neighborhood, and driving by and seeing a colorful procession of people in an unexpected place – all these help to change the feel of the neighborhood for people who are regularly there and make it more art-filled. We also benefited most of the businesses we worked with – El Burrito, Icy Cup, and Wabasha Brewery all had additional customers who were there because of the procession. At Icy Cup we took a break and everyone (about 50 people) had an ice cream cone or other treat. El Buen Sabor provided the food for the ending reception, and there were many people who were at Wabasha Brewery and who celebrated the end of the Procession there. Those three businesses benefited substantially. The final goal was definitely realized. Our group learned a new repertoire for the Procession, gained valuable experience, and had a great time preparing for and doing the Procession. In general, everything worked according to plan. What didn’t work as well as we had hoped was getting people to some of the businesses. For more information, see Question 2 below. If we were to repeat the project, the one question is timing – would there be a better time of day to do this when there might be more people out or when people might be more likely to go out? Or, a date earlier in the spring before people want to spend their weekends outside? We did ask these questions when we planned the Procession, but none of our community partners were sure what date and time would work best. So, if we were to repeat the project, we would just try a different time and/or date. Overall, the community we served was the same as what we outlined in the proposal. We reached our intended community in terms of artists and participants. As noted above, we had approximately 45 participants who processed with us, in addition to the 14 artists. An estimated 60 people saw us at the various venues. That means we served about 120 individuals, which was less than estimated. As noted above, the audience at sites 1, 3, and 4 was smaller than we had hoped. We provided posters and postcards, created a Facebook event and tagging the businesses, getting nice coverage in newspapers La Voz and The Voice, and working one-on-one with the businesses to support them in promoting the event. But it’s not clear that they did as much as they could to draw customers/audiences – perhaps because they didn’t understand what it was until we were actually there. Small, local business owners are inundated with the demands of running their businesses – some suggested (indirectly) that it was difficult for them to add something more to their plates, even if they liked the concept. The flamenco and Spanish audiences who came to see us perform (not participate) was smaller than hoped for (though they did turn out in good numbers to participate in the Procession). The outreach efforts did result in diversity, although we would like to have seen more West Side residents engaged either as audience members or participants. More support from West Side community groups could perhaps have helped support this. Our community partner West Side Community Organization was not as actively involved as we had planned and hoped; and unfortunately, in the days after the Procession was completed their Executive Director abruptly left, which reflects challenges that may have been going on within the organization. The project was very open and accessible to all because it was free of charge, was in the neighborhood where people live/work/shop, and was promoted in both English and Spanish. 14 artists and 45 community members participated in the Procession, which served 60 audience members in 6 venues. 100% of artists and participants surveyed indicated they enjoyed the experience and would like to repeat it. The project brought a unique arts experience to the West Side community, residents, and businesses.",,2500,"Other, local or private",7410,,"Kate Cooper, Erin Govrik, Nancy Johnson, Christine Kozachok, Steve Morse",0.00,"Deborah Elias Danza Espanola","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for Coro Flamenco, a lively street choir of 12 singers and dancers performing traditional flamenco songs with tambourines, castanets, and guitar, stopping to give ""flash"" performances at 8-10 pre-arranged sites, and longer performances at 2 anchor",2016-01-04,2016-07-02,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Deborah,Elias,"Deborah Elias Danza Espanola","117 Mackubin St Ste 5","St Paul",MN,55102,"(651) 224-2075 ",dedanza@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-666,"Erin Wisness: Fundraising, organizational development, Community Education; Kevin Vollmers: Fundraising, audience development, organizational development; Amelia Foster: Audience development, community service, general management; Dana Kassel: General management, artistic, audience development; Ann Erickson: Audience development, fundraising, organizational development; Peter Thompson: Artistic, general management, fundraising.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, Amy Crawford (651) 523-6390 ",1 35877,"Community Arts",2016,5000,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","The In Focus program will recruit, train and mentor 15+ at-risk, low-income students of color from 8th – 12th grades; employ and compensate a minimum of three community artists to facilitate the program; create youth-led media products to use for community engagement and education; and provide at least two community/school presentations or outlets for their work and engagement activities. The DIAL Group will collect participant feedback/surveys to measure the impact and satisfaction of the program's participants, and artist surveys to measure the success related to the program's facilitators. Furthermore, we will audit the project income and expenses to ensure that In Focus activities are completed within projected budget and time frame.","The DIAL (Data-driven Initiatives through Artists Leadership) provided our In Focus: Digital Media Arts and Youth Leadership Program (or simply In Focus) – a program that provides at-risk, under-served youths of color in North Minneapolis a high quality, after-school media arts program, with a service-learning component focused on community engagement and information sharing regarding issues of concern to the participants, their peers, and the community. The artistic goals of In Focus were to: (1) Expand the access to art for communities of color and youth, (2) Leverage the talents of community artists for social betterment, and (3) Develop the artistic interest and skills for at-risk youths of color. We have successfully achieved the three goals we had designed for the program. The DIAL and our partners measured the artistic success through pre- and post-program participant surveys, interviews, focus group discussion and critiques of art projects, and regular monitoring and evaluation of In Focus activities. Several In Focus activities that worked were: Highly skilled artist-organizers provided weekly, after-school media arts training and production session to students of color in North Minneapolis. Artist-organizers demonstrated the power of the arts to positively impact communities, using media arts to engage other youth and community members. In Focus instructors, who are from similar backgrounds as the participants, shared media arts techniques and mentored the youth, to help them develop interest in the arts and positive growth. One program challenge was having the participants attend the program weekly. Although we had good overall participant numbers, weekly attendance numbers fluctuated greatly throughout the program period due to the youth’s busy schedules and competing external activities. We discussed this issue with our program partners and advisors, and decided to implement a stipend, provided by Beacons Minneapolis, for youths who regularly participated in the program. This had a positive impact on the weekly attendance numbers, and we saw more students participating on a consistent basis. Two things we will do differently in future offerings of In Focus are securing resources, internally or externally, for participant stipends; and conducing broader outreach in the school and community to enroll greater number of youth. The DIAL intends to include the youth stipends in the program budget to make it a regular part of the program’s expenses. We will also work with our partners to identify more opportunities to recruit students for the program. We believe these adjustments will improve weekly participation attendance, and lead to program growth. In Focus’ media arts training and leadership program successfully served and benefited our different intended audiences: at-risk youths of color, artists and creative professionals of color, and under-served community members. The reason for serving these specific groups is based on past programming experience and research findings that they face some of the greatest challenges and barriers in the Twin Cities. Participants: 100% of the participants were youths of color from low-income families. Artists: 100% of the artists were from communities of color. Audiences: A great majority of audiences at our presentations were people of color from under-served communities. The DIAL was also successful in meeting our goals for making our project open and accessible for all who wanted to participate. In Focus is a free program so there are no cost barriers for our target participant group of low-income youth. Also, we provide In Focus at our partner school Patrick Henry High School, which is a public high school, meaning all facilities meet ADA regulations. Furthermore, we provided transportation options (bus cards, reimbursement, etc.) to be inclusive of those who want to participate but have ride issue. Quantitatively, we trained and mentored 15+ at-risk, students of color, employed 3 artists of color, and created 4 high-quality media/communications products for the community. Qualitatively, we learned through participant interviews and surveys that 100% of the youth learned to better express themselves through media arts, found it to be a useful tool in supporting the community.",,7500,"Other, local or private",12500,,"David Kang, Kang Vang, Peg Thomas, Raiza Beltran",0.00,"The DIAL GROUP","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for In Focus: Media Arts and Youth Leadership Program, providing at-risk, under-served youths of color in North Minneapolis a high quality, after-school media arts program with a service-learning component focused on community engagement.",2015-12-16,2016-06-15,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,David,Kang,"The DIAL Group","1930 Glenwood Ave",Minneapolis,MN,55405,"(646) 335-2008 ",davidkang.dial@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/community-arts-667,"Erin Wisness: Fundraising, organizational development, Community Education; Kevin Vollmers: Fundraising, audience development, organizational development; Amelia Foster: Audience development, community service, general management; Dana Kassel: General management, artistic, audience development; Ann Erickson: Audience development, fundraising, organizational development; Peter Thompson: Artistic, general management, fundraising.","Julie Andersen: Eagan Art House Executive Director; Jill Anfang: Roseville Parks and Recreation Program Director; Bethany Brunsell: Music teacher and performer; Shelly Chamberlain: Minnesota Council of Nonprofits Operations Director; Marisol Chiclana-Ayla: Artist, Board Chair El Arco Iris; Anthony Galloway: Actor, storyteller, West Metro Education Program; Jamil Jude: Theatre artist; Tricia Khutoretsky: Public Functionary Curator and Co-Director; Peter Leggett: Walker West Music Academy Executive Director; Dayna Martinez: Ordway Center for the Performing Arts; Coleen McLaughlin: Arts Midwest Director of External Relations; Tom Moffatt: Silverwood Park Supervisor; Kathy Mouacheupao: Twin Cities Local Initiatives Support Corporation Cultural Corridor Coordinator; Adam Napoli-Rangel: Artist; Heather Rutledge: ArtReach Saint Croix Executive Director; Andrea Sjogren: Hopkins Public Schools Youth Programs Coordinator; Dameun Strange: Composer and performer; Melissa Wright: Twin Cities Public Television.","Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, Amy Crawford (651) 523-6390 ",1 35878,"Community Arts",2016,3200,"Laws of Minnesota 2015 Special Session, chapter 2, article 4, section 2, subdivision 3","ACHF Arts Access","The goals of this festival are to expose festival attendees to the rich arts and culture of countries around the world by highlighting local residents and diverse performing artists.

Their energy was amazing and there fun connection with our Mexican youth folk dancers as both sets of young people enjoyed each other’s performances! One thing we are considering doing differently is to add some additional elements or marketing that keep parents of older youth at the festival longer. Some of them drop off their kids but don't stay themselves. We want to change that in future years. We reached our attendance goals with about 700 attending. We were very pleased with the diverse group of countries represented. This is the one arts event in our community where people from different cultures all come together in one place. Asking people to participate in the festival has been our best way to really reach diverse audiences and make them welcome and included. Festival organizers spend time talking with attendees and encouraging them to be participants the next year.

Of the total of those participating, 30% will be youth under the age of 25 years and 20% will be elders over the age of 50 years who have not been exposed to such a project before. We will keep records of participants (counts and break-down by age and by repeated participation) and have regular interviews of experiences. We will particularly focus on questions about previous experience with the arts and solicit feedback on participant reactions to the project and their involvement.","We definitely achieved our artistic goals - we had community members sharing their stories, weighing in on the artistic depiction of the symbols of those stories, painting the mural, and demonstrating pride in the accomplishment through verbal statements throughout the process. What worked well was drawing the symbols from the stories, and attracting painters, especially when the mural began to take shape. The youth were particularly engaged in the process, participating and showing delight in their assistance with making the image take shape. What didn't work so well was our partnership with the apartment management - they did not assist with recruitment to the level they promised and did not seem willing (as they had said they would be) to provide our organizers with access to their facilities for our own recruitment. So recruitment happened in a less systematic way than we had hoped. We also discovered that in the Somali community art projects are felt to be for young people, and not something that adults do, so having adult supervisors of children participating was a great struggle. Our older youth, who were to assist with this were more interested in painting themselves than in supervising younger children as they painted. Bottom line is that the project involved far more staff and artist time to supervise than we anticipated. In addition, we had a change-over in our staff (not the artist) working on the project that was anticipated. However, what was not anticipated was the impact this would have on our recruiting, especially in light of the lack of assistance from the area management at the site. The weather this summer was another major challenge. When painting days were scheduled, too often they had to be canceled due to weather. This affected our timeline, which then ran into conflicts with the artist's and staff time constraints. But the surface was perfect for the project, its location made it very visible to passers-by, who commented extremely positively, sent children to participate, and in some instances came to paint themselves. People were proud, and the youth were EXTREMELY proud, of the design and the beauty of the final project. As a first project of its kind in our area, this project will act as a spark to the imagination of other neighbors. In subsequent projects, we will allow more time for completion, we make sure that there is more buy-in at the get-go, and we will include all levels of people in the planning to assure that there are no logistical surprises as we move forward. The overall premise and the ultimate outcome, however, were dynamite!! We successfully met our goals for participation although we would have liked to have doubled or tripled the participation on the design end of the work. We had almost 100 people participating in design and painting, and 40 people at the celebration. Again, we also found that for people new to art projects such as this, neighbors had to see the mural taking shape to actually commit to participating in the painting. Once that happened, however, they grew from merely curious to active participants. The artist and our staff were good at drawing people in, accepting them where they were in feeling comfortable with the arts, and letting them explore the possibilities. We drew a broader range of people than we expected from the neighborhood, and not just from the apartments, which was helpful in building a broader sense of community. But we had fewer older adult Somalis and other East Africans participating as a result of preconceptions from their cultures about who art activities are designed for - children, not adults. That we drew Asian and white participants was a positive thing, because it brought African immigrants, African Americans, Asian Americans and white folks together to work on something they could all take pride in. Our outreach efforts certainly resulted in diversity, but if our outreach partners had participated more fully, our overall numbers could have been much greater. We were quite clear on expectations from the beginning about this partnership responsibility, but getting it in writing and having continuing face-to-face meetings would have helped. The fact that we had our youth group doing some recruiting, that we were in a very public place along a public thoroughfare, and that the work took place in the summer when families were enjoying a range of cross-generational activities all made the project accessible and attractive. The fact that the design was so dynamic, colorful and enticing also helped. The symbols spoke to everyone. mural design from stories - ""I am amazed the artist could capture everything we talked about and make something so unified and beautiful"", ""you all are doing great work - keep it up - this neighborhood really needs this!"" complaint ""why didn't you do the whole wall??"" 100 part and 40 people at party (cold day in October!). 75% people of color, mostly African-American and African immigrants.

The Harvest of Art event included an art exhibit featuring 45 artists, most submitting 2 pieces of artwork. We also had live entertainment by the Family Trade, artist demonstrations, raku pottery firing and pop-up artist tents. Each of these activities invited participants to interact directly with artwork, art making and/or artists. A new activity included this year was the Community Supported Art project. This project, modeled after Community Supported Agriculture, featured 25 shares of artwork from 6 local artists. Each share include 6 original pieces of artwork created just for the 2016 Community Supported Art. Artwork included: set of hand painted greeting cards, photo of Eagan's natural settings, pyrograph coasters featuring Eagan locations, horse hair fired pottery piece, fused glass platter and an oversize clay serving bowl. While, it was challenging to explain a new concept to the community, it was very well received and offered a unique way for people to connect to artists and their artwork in a very personal manner. Community Supported Art buyers picked up their box at the Harvest event and were able to meet each artist. We are planning to repeat the project again in 2017. 2.) Skill building for artists. The Eagan Artist Connect group continued to grow with 80+ Facebook group members and regular monthly attendance of 25-30 artists. We hosted Springboard for the Arts' ""Career Planning for Artists,"" ""Framing Your Artwork"" with Wet Paint and a presentation by mnartists.org. We also invited members of the group to speak on areas of their own expertise, including ""Applying for Art Festivals"" and ""hands on pricing workshop with Excel."" The group also had 2 art making sessions, allowing artists to create work, sketch and share ideas. The guest speakers and discussion topics were helpful and imparted valuable information to artists working in the community. This project succeeded in deepening connections between the artists and the Eagan community through several strategies, including the Community Supported Art project, the Harvest exhibit and event activities. The project allowed the community to engage in a variety of ways from viewing to buying to participating. This multi-focus on engagement is a key component to the project. For future artistic/community engagement projects, we will repeat the Community Supported Art and Harvest event activities. The focus on skill building for artists through Eagan Artist Connect continues to face challenges. This multi-disciplinary group has great synergy, but lacks internal leadership for sustainability. Staff struggles with capacity to adequately support this group. The group will continue, but will need to re-assess their goals moving forward. The project successfully reached our intended community, both for artist engagement and for community engagement. * Artist Engagement. The project attracted artists from the local community. The professional development workshops and monthly meetings attracted new artists to engage. All six Community Supported Art artists were already involved in the Eagan Art House Community. However, one artists was fairly new at artwork production, so the Community Supported Art opportunity was a great way for her to strengthen her connections to the community as an artist in addition to being a well-known business owner. The artists who participated in pop-up artist booths at the Harvest of Art Event had exhibited or sold with art house events before. However, 2 of them had not had an artist booth before. All of the individual artist connections with the community represented a broad diversity of media, including pottery, watercolor painting, photography, fused glass, acrylic painting, jewelry, oil painting, and wood burning (pyrography). We also reached a broad diversity in age from the young participants in the raku pottery firing and exhibitors to the senior adult population. The Harvest of Art Exhibit was a prime example of representing a diversity of skill levels of art making. Because of the welcoming nature of this community visual art exhibition, we highlighted the very beginning artists to the very skilled artists, and every skill level in between. Some artists are self-taught and work on their own. Others have taken art classes for many years and make most of their art at the Eagan Art House. One mother and daughter pair both entered work into the exhibit - the mother started painting to spend creative time with her daughter. The Harvest of Art Event also attracted new audience members from diverse communities in Eagan, especially those from India and East Asia. We also saw an uptick in new volunteers. As far as accessibility, our activities were very accessible to artists and to the community. Artist workshops with Springboard for the Arts and with Wet Paint Artist Supply were free. The Harvest Event was free to attend and Raku pottery was for sale at $5, $10 and $15 levels. The facility of the Eagan Art House is ADA accessible. We paid special attention that the parts of the event that took place on the outdoor grounds of the Art House could be accessed by those with mobility challenges. For example, the artist pop up tents and registration table were both on asphalt to aid in accessibility. Grassy areas were kept clear of barriers. A video of the event was produced by ETV and broadcast on local cable TV. On-line promotional materials were formatted to allow for audio transcription. Event attendance increased from 275 in 2015 to 400 in 2016. Local artists supported was strengthened. From a survey of Community Supported Art purchasers, 2 of the respondents didn't know any of the artists when they purchased, showing a support of local artists regardless of who it was.

We hope to successfully incorporate multimedia into a concert and establish this capability for East Metro Symphony Orchestra in future performances. Evaluation methods will include audience count; audience survey results; and post-performance feedback from audience members, artistic partners, orchestra members, and technical support.","East Metro Symphony Orchestra achieved most of the artistic goals outlined in our proposal. Our three performances were family-friendly, our audiences were enthusiastic about the programs presented, our orchestra members embraced the music selections and found them appropriately diverse and challenging, individual orchestra members were showcased and our collaborations continued with two Senior Living communities. Our Senior Living concerts were well received, with a 20% increase in audience size and they continue to be a satisfying tradition in our concert seasons. For the May concert, our original proposal had to be modified (see 4. Project Changes) because of the sudden and unexpected dissolution of our musical partnership with Saint Mark's Lutheran Church. We performed at that venue as planned, but were not able to present a concert in collaboration with their music director and choir. The program we substituted, however, more than met our goals. We connected with the Twin Cities Russian community, showcased Saint Mary's Balalaika Orchestra and a superbly talented local Russian pianist, and hosted a display for concert attendees provided by the Museum of Russian Art in Minneapolis. We successfully added a multi-media component to this concert that both challenged and expanded our capabilities as an organization. Beyond the musical challenges of this May concert, the expenses and logistics of coordinating with Saint Mark's media people and equipment requirements (including bringing in a concert grand piano) were much more demanding than for our typical concerts. Orchestra members and volunteers rose to the challenges with creative solutions to problems and extra donations to cover additional expenses. Our success with this concert gave us the confidence to try something like it again. We now know some of the complications to anticipate, and more about how much lead time it takes for planning. Because this May concert was an unexpected substitution for our original plans, we did a lot of scrambling to pull it together. We learned that as a group we are capable of doing this, but also that we need to keep working on expanding and maintaining adequate volunteer resources both within and outside of the orchestra to support our future efforts. We were not able fulfill the goal of strengthening our collaboration with the Saint Mark's music program, due to the sudden departure of the music director. We did, however, keep our association with the church as a performance venue. We went beyond serving the community we intended to and expected to. The Senior Living concert at Stonecrest had an audience that was larger and more diverse in age than we expected, because the facility advertised it to its greater community (beyond just residents). Because of the change in our May concert offering we actually expanded the diversity of our audience culturally and geographically. We attracted members of the Twin Cities Russian community because of our concert program. Our outreach also resulted in more audience members from the Minneapolis area. To be more accessible, we offered ASL support (upon request) and large print programs. We had no requests for the ASL support and so did not provide it at this concert. We did have a number of audience members who took advantage of the large print programs. We will continue to offer these supports at future concerts. East Metro Symphony Orchestra successfully organized and presented a multi-media concert, establishing the groundwork and confidence to do something like this again in the future. We also began a very positive relationship with a new Senior Living facility, Stonecrest. We expect to continue this affiliation. East Metro Symphony Orchestra expanded our relationship with the local Russian community and our hopes for future collaborations.",,5670,"Other, local or private",10670,,"Betsy Lake, Angie Newgren, Mark Mohwinkel, Janice Wenker, Sally Browne, Emily Kaczynski, Don Mitchell",0.00,"East Metro Symphony Orchestra","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for French Favorites featuring the Saint-Saens Organ Symphony and the Faure Requiem in collaboration with St Mark's Lutheran Church choir, and two free concerts at Senior Living Communities.

Artistic quality and the committee's commitment to making the morning meaningful for families has created an event that families now put on their calendars in advance so they don't miss the opportunity to be part of this free event that combines fun and learning. For the 2nd year in a row, we added performances on the main commons stage area. We added an Appalachian clogging dance group to the mix this year. It was very popular. We had planned for the added congestion this viewing area would cause and decided to adjust the floor plan accordingly. We moved some visiting authors to another area of the event where they could speak with guests more easily. We added more demonstrations from pottery, painting and performing artists in the hallways. As always, we tried to connect as many books as possible to each activity. This subtle association is intentional, capitalizing on every opportunity to promote literacy and the relevance of the arts in our lives. Each year attendance grows so we have had to plan for the purchase of books - each child receives a free book. We have added more diversity to our selection and added more books for younger children in the mix. We will be seeking additional sponsorship funding to provide these books in the future. This year's event welcomed more than 2,500 community members. Children from all ages, toddlers through fifth grade, attended with parents, grandparents and neighbors. The event was free. Free transportation was offered, but not highly utilized. Our intercultural specialists worked with families to share information about the event.

Cast, crew, musicians, and audience members were reflective of the St Anthony community overall. We promoted the opportunity to participate through the local community center, local businesses, places of worship, schools, and in local newspapers as well as through social media. For artists and participants in cast and crew, we were able to include a wide range of ages... from age five to age 72. We also were able to involve whole families by providing opportunities for family members to participate in everything from learning about and helping with set design and build, costuming, lighting and sound design, crew, orchestra, and acting. In terms of audience we promoted the show through local businesses, community gathering places, media, and social media, and offered discounted ticket prices and promotions to reach new and more diverse audience members. We offered discounts for seniors, students, and families (25% discount on purchase of 4 or more tickets). We also had a social media promotion for $5 student tickets. These promotions were possible because of the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council grant and is the primary reason why we exceeded our box office goals.

The project was an opportunity for Encore to collaborate with guest conductors, Jack Stamp and Lindsay Boyd, and to share the stage with young musicians at Edina High School and the University of Minnesota. The organization continues to partner with other organizations and musicians to grow our audience and grow artistically. All Encore concerts were free and open to the public to eliminate any financial barriers, and all are held in public spaces that are handicap accessible. The repertoire for this project was intended to introduce people to a range of different musical styles and genres by playing known wind ensemble music as well as newly composed pieces. Encore has a commitment to connect with young people through our concerts, and we achieved this by sharing programs with the University of Minnesota Symphonic Band and the Edina High School Concert Band. These performances introduced us to the student members and parents of the students to demonstrate the opportunities to perform through adulthood. There were approximately 70 college students at the university concert approximately 140 elementary through high school students at the Edina concert. Encore’s publicity was mostly electronic for this project with a limited amount of printed material. Emails were sent to the mailing list of 350 supporters and Facebook was used to publicize the events. Post cards were printed with the season’s events. These were sent by individual members to friends and family.

By seating the additional singers among and between the regular Exultate professionals, they were supported in learning the music and blending with the ensemble. After many years of performing a large work with added musicians, we have developed a strong system that works and will continue this process of auditioning and rehearsing the larger group. Dr. Rossin held a demonstration/lecture at each of the three concerts and the feedback from the audience surveys was very positive. We were very pleased with the audience for this event - 518 in attendance. Although we did not increase our attendance over last year we believe that was because of the less popular work of music we were performing and not because of the efforts made to increase the audience size. The Exultate musicians were given complimentary tickets to give only to someone who has never attended an Exultate concert before and of those in attendance, 50 were new as a result of this program. We also had many ""under age 30"" concertgoers so we believe our reduced ticket price ($5) for that age group has had a positive impact.

Quantitatively, we want to present the work of 50 artists. Logistics and Partnerships: A good working relationship with Saint Paul Parks and Recreation and a canoe rental business will make logistics of an on-water project as easy as possible and will ensure that people can access the Library through subsidized boat rental. Media: Significant media attention will be garnered and readers far and wide will see the work of Minnesota artists along with the natural and cultivated resources of one of Saint Paul’s largest city parks. Experiential: Hundreds of people will be moved by experiences they have with artwork and each other at the Floating Library. Specific demographics include people in these categories: a. new to Saint Paul b. new to Lake Phalen c. new to artist books. The artistic goals of the project will be met in the success of the open call and project commissions, themselves will be successful by engaging the advisory committee to thoroughly advertise the call. The experiential success of the project will be evaluated in two ways: 1. informally by project staff and volunteers as they engage with Library patrons 2. Through a “guestbook” Library patrons can sign. A book artist will design a floating book that patrons can sign while visiting the raft to leave their impressions that may also include a take-away postcard or other component. We also collect attendance numbers and make efforts to gather data on park attendance and boat rental numbers from Saint Paul Park and Recreation and Wheel Fun Rentals. A tally of media mentions, articles, news interviews, etc. will prove the success of our media goals. The project will be successful financially if expenses are kept within budget.","We achieved the goal of commissioning 4 artists to make inventive new works for the collection. St Paul artist Aaron Johnson-Ortiz made a bilingual book exploring exile, solidarity, and oblivion through water, light, and walking. Minneapolis-based artist Caitlin Warner made a silk-screened, reversible book that juxtaposed fish in water with stars in the sky. Toy, game and graphic designer Tou Yia Xiong made a waterproof book sewn with fishing line illustrating animals and their names in English and White Hmong. Seattle-based artist Martine Workman create a trio of books in honor of Minnesota’s patron musical saint Prince. An open call promoted via Facebook, Floating Library website, email and to 68 list-serves nationally and internationally yielded 75 submissions. 60 of these were selected for inclusion on the raft (50 was the goal). Many of the artists responded enthusiastically to the themes of water, immigration, St Paul history and climate change that we put forward as optional in the call. We received many submissions around the theme of water, including a hand-sewn book made to float and a book made to dissolve in the water after being read aloud each day. We turned this into a daily performance where a Floating Librarian on shift 1 would read the poetry out loud and ceremonially toss the page into the water to biodegrade. These inventive forms challenge and expand the definition of a “book” -- one of our artistic goals. The operations of the Open Call were much better organized this year thanks to the participation of the Floating Library’s Co-Captain and Open Call Organizer who completed efficient communications with the artists. We asked for a limited number of copies to reduce the need to mail extra copies back to artists. We also added a book-making workshop component in partnership with the East Side Freedom Library in the neighborhood of Lake Phalen. Commissioned artist Johnson-Ortiz led a free, hands-on workshop for people to make books about their heritage and family history using simple tools and the immigration history resources at East Side Freedom Library. 10 people ages 3-70 attended. Areas for improvement: A less successful component was soliciting books in languages other than English through the Open Call. Two of the commissioned books were bilingual, but our network is slow to grow in bilingual communities. With the new relationships forged with new artists this year, however, this is changing. If/when the Floating Library floats again I would repeat many of these artistic strategies (commissioning, open call) and would give more time to the workshop component. Simple bookmaking is incredibly accessible -- it can be taught in an afternoon. People love to tell their stories and the Floating Library is a good platform for the dissemination of stories not found in popular media. I would continue working with the commissioned artists to further network to bilingual book artists, and hold more workshops in communities where English is not the first language. Intended communities: Artists: 64 artists were successfully presented; 60 through the open call and 4 commissioned. Artists express gratitude and excitement for being in the project. Several returning artists made new work for the Open Call. Volunteers: 35 volunteers completed 64 shifts in 3 hour increments on the Library’s 7 open days (1 day was rained out). 25 of them attended Volunteer Orientation at Phalen’s Lakeside Activities Center to learn about the project get to know each other. About 1/3 of the volunteers returned from previous years, with 2/3rds new participation. Patrons: The intended patrons as described in the grant include St Paul residents new to Lake Phalen; metro area residents new to St Paul, and boaters already on the water. The Library’s playful survey tool asked patrons to identify whether they usually spend time on water and where the live, among other questions. Of 96 collected surveys, we know: 14% of visitors were surprised to find the Floating Library on the water; 82% of visitors were not surprised, indicating they came for the project; 7% did not respond. 42% live in Minneapolis, 28% live in St Paul. 28% rarely go boating, 40% sometimes go boating, 28% often go boating. Lake Phalen was listed only 16 times of 96 surveys in response to a fill-in-the-blank asking “Most-visited Twin Cities Lakes and Rivers.” These stats indicate that the project did succeed in drawing people to Lake Phalen for the first time, and in drawing Minneapolis residents to Lake Phalen. The Mississippi River, Lake Calhoun and Como Lake were the top most frequently visited lakes as indicated in the question above. Populations benefitting: The higher percentage of Minneapolis residents than St Paul residents was slightly surprising, though in anecdotal conversations many people said they had attended the project in Minneapolis previously. Fewer patrons than expected were already on the lake in boats. Overall we found Lake Phalen to be a less-used body of water. Upon observation, we saw that many people use the lake, but from its edges. Getting people to the lake is different than getting people on the water, as it turns out. Outreach: The community partnerships that proved most successful were Saint Paul Parks and Recreation and East Side Freedom Library. Multiple attempts to speak with other civic and arts groups on St Paul’s East Side were unsuccessful. We learned that focusing on a deeper relationship with 1 or 2 partners is a better use of time than trying to work broadly with many. The outreach efforts provided by Parks and Rec were minimal, unfortunately. Openness and Accessibility: The Floating Library’s placement in a public park with amenities of ample parking, inexpensive boat rental (further subsidized by the Floating Library) and the location of the Library within easy paddling distance from the beach contributed to a relative ease in reaching the project for those able to paddle a boat. Signage at the boat rental announced discounted rates. 370 people boated to the Floating Library; 35 volunteers participated; 250 boat rentals through the City of St Paul, half of which were subsidized. Survey data states a strong positive experience among patrons. “Delightful” “fun” and “relaxing” were the most common words. 64 artists were presented. We deepened relationships with the commissioned artists, including 2 artists new to the Floating Library network.",,15000,"Other, local or private",20000,,"Molly Van Avery, Moheb Soliman, Allison Herrera, Sam Gould, Margit Wilson",0.00,"The Floating Library",Individual,"Community Arts",,"Funding for The Floating Library, a public art initiative that brings artistsÆ books to people recreating on an urban lake.

After a planning process that began in January, rehearsals starting in May, Shrek Jr was performed on July 21st and 22nd. Forte Fine Arts Academy's production of Shrek Jr was able to meet the goals set forth in the grant of building theatrical skills for the 34 youth performers and 4 technicians through a structured rehearsal process. The students were an integral part of the development process, they were able to take time to learn about the art and science behind live performance. Students aided in the creation of the play through development of their characters, as well as, hands on time spent building and creating the physical environment. The student actors built costumes, props and participated in scenic painting and set construction. They ran and learned about the use and responsibility of live sound accompanied with performance in a large auditorium as 90% of the cast wore body microphones for the shows. Additionally, Shrek Jr gave the students and adult leaders the opportunity to explore the themes of inclusion and acceptance expressed in the script. As the students were ages 10-16, these themes are immediately applicable to their lives. Shrek Jr also allowed for the exploration of a history of Musical Theatre as the script is referential of the genre. One a weekly basis, the adult leader explored with the children the history of musical theatre and comedy and its role in society. Using the script as source material, the production team were able delve into process and create foundational learning opportunities for the students. The challenges were often of a logistical nature. During the summer, families are pulled in many directions. Commitment and regular attendance were sometimes outside the control of the children participant. Other times, older student participants made choices that reduced their availability. The adult leaders had to work to be both compassionate but also offer structure, guidelines, and expectations around this behavior. In future years, we intend to create a contract for the students and parents to sign in setting these expectations at the start of the commitment. We are also investigating ways to better accommodate our participants and families and to balance their commitment in the very busy summer time. Another challenge of future productions will be in finding equally strong source material for this age group. The strong themes of belonging, acceptance and parent- child relations in Shrek Jr aided in the learning and development process. Yes, we did reach our intended audience. In regards to youth participants, we fell slightly short of our goal of 37 paid and 3 scholarships. We had 30 paid youth performers. In regards to audience, we exceeded our audience predictions of 200 patrons per performance with 287 and 212 attendees for a total of 499. We made a decision to reduce our average ticket price to make the show more accessible but while that increased our patronage it did decrease our predicted ticket sales dollars. (Forecast $3000 in tickets sales. In actuality, sales totaled $2705.) We did seek youth participants that represented socio-economically, as well as, ability and racial diversity. As a result, we outpaced the local demographic with 6 (17%) need based scholarship students, 5 (14%) students with Individualized Education Programs and varied levels of ability, and 7 (20%) children of color out of 34 youth participants. In future productions, we plan to continue to focus on material that allows for and engages diverse populations. In recruiting participants, we worked with teachers and administrators from the local 3 middle and 2 high schools, we provided a channel to privately request scholarships and kept the paid participant pricing in line with what was offered by the schools similar programming. (In our post production survey, 78% respondents placed the participation fee of $80 as appropriately priced or low.) We engaged the school district's art, music and band teachers to promote the show to their students. We also drew on our participants for our previous year's production and their family and friends which included students from the home school community, private school and a charter high school. We were uniquely able to serve a population of students that bridged 11 schools (including a student from intermediate school district 917 which serves children with disabilities), as well as, a private school, home school and online school students. This artistic endeavor included youth performers and technicians (34 performers and 4 technicians). The two performances reached 499 audience members. In the post-show survey, 90.9% of respondents remarked that they were Very Satisfied with the overall production process and the remaining 9.1% identified in the next highest category as Somewhat Satisfied.",,5960,"Other, local or private",10960,,"Joy Afdahl, Daniel Brown, Nancy Whipple, Elisa Brown, Sherry Boan, Shelly Carroll, Kris Koenig",0.00,"Forte Fine Arts Academy","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to present Shrek, Jr., a 60 minute musical based on the animated movie and adapted for young performers.

The renovation of the Fridley Auditorium would provide challenges and opportunities for our organization. We were able to achieve almost all of our goals for the production. We had a large cast of both new and returning actors to fill the stage. We put on a high quality production that we were quite proud of and provided many opportunities both on and off stage for individuals to participate. We had a diverse and varied group of participants that brought many view points and backgrounds to our production and provided an accessible and welcoming environment for everyone involved. We however did not draw an audience of 1500 people to our show. We knew that doing an unknown show in a new space would be difficult, but we were surprised how important name recognition is in drawing an audience. We were saddened by the lack of regular followers of our organization that did not come to see the show. We hit them often with many different forms of communication, but it was not strong enough to get them into our seats. It was definitely more work to put on the show in a space that was not our own, mainly due to the amount of materials and supplies that we had to transport into and out of the space. But it was worth the work to still be able to put on a show during our summer of construction. We had our most dedicated and consistent social media presence to date due to two new advisory members that focused just on that aspect of promotion, but it is possible that a large percentage of our followers do not pay attention to social media. We need to improve other methods of communication that are effective with those individuals and increase the number of followers that are swayed by Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. The people that did show up to see the show had a wonderful time and the comment that we kept hearing over and over from them was that they could tell that the cast was having a wonderful experience on stage. They could easily tell that all of the cast members really enjoyed performing the show. We got the idea to have a drawing to give audience members a chance to appear on stage in the show. At intermission we drew two names that we then brought back stage, dressed them in costume and allowed to appear on stage during the first 15 minutes of the second act. We had cast members who had the responsibility of guiding them around the stage and showing how they could participate. They all had a great time doing it. It would not work in every production, but it is something that we will keep in our box of tools to increase opportunities for our audience members. Letting them appear on stage was truly unique. We were very happy with the cast for Lady Pirates. It was a nice mix of new people and returning actors. Minnesota Playlist is by far the best method of bringing the show to the attention of actors in the Twin Cities. The cast had their usual following of supporters that we rely on to bring in audience members. They came in the expected numbers that support a typical actor. We feel that we also were able to cultivate some new audience members from the Spring Lake Park community that was curious to see our show. We participated in Spring Lake Park’s community festival parade for the first time. Walking down the street in pirate costumes and swinging cutlasses drew a lot of attention from the younger parade watchers. We felt very welcomed and supported by the Spring Lake Park community. That was a very successful event that we feel we may want to continue when we return to the Fridley Stage. We utilized a large number of the Spring Lake Park student technicians to run the show. They all had a great time and we feel that we have built some strong bonds that will be valuable for future productions. We had a comical bit in the beginning of the show that called for all the sailors on board to abandon ship when they first see the pirate ship approaching. We obtained a large crash pad and placed it behind the structure of the ship. Everyone had a great time leaping off the second story of the stage set unto the crash pad. The Spring Lake Park students even brought in their friends to be able to leap unto it. We could have sold tickets for that experience alone. Our matinee performance was signed in ASL. It is important to us that we offer that service. We have not always had the deaf community in attendance. It was very rewarding that new audience members discovered our production and were able to take advantage of this service. The interpreters also have a much better experience when they are actually helping individuals enjoy the show. But we really struggled in getting audience members to come and see an unknown production. Those people that did come were all pleasantly surprised that it was such an entertaining show. We feel that we did get a very good cross section of the community. The staff from nearby Mounds View Community Theatre came to see our final performance after their show run was completed. One of them were selected to be a part of the audience experience on stage. They commented on how difficult it was for them to get people to come and see a show that did not have strong name recognition. We had actually gone to see their production before ours opened, going on their pay what you can performance. They had a very small attendance at that show. We feel that we have a good reputation for putting on a professional, high quality show that is entertaining for the audience that comes to see it. We need to figure out how to take advantage of that reputation and get people to come. It is just not enough to say, if you build it they will come. They don’t always come. We were successful in casting a high quality, diverse cast that put on a professional and entertaining show. We brought new talent to our stage even without the pull of a big name show. We were very happy with the final product. We were sad that we only attracted 741 people to our production. We had hoped for an average attendance of 250 people per show. We achieved 60% of that goal.",,19450,"Other, local or private",24450,,"Toni Craft, Tom Larson, Dan Wold, Connie Thompson, Christine Houchins, Debra Johnson, Deb Dahl, Eric Carlson, Tom Peets, Karen Holdgrafer Berry, Kendra Tillberry",0.00,"Fridley Community Theatre","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding to present five performances of The Lady Pirates of Captain Bree, a summer musical production featuring a large cast of community members from Anoka County.

Some examples of how this goal was met this year include the Karen Weavers, whose booth included a loom to show the weaving process. The Midwestern Avian Adoption and Rescue Services booth featured photographs of rescued birds painting the art that was on display. Another example was the “Pop-Up Ting,” which explained and demonstrated the artistic elements of a classical China garden. This year we excelled at attracting exhibitors who were new to Art in the Hollow, and in some cases, who were displaying their work for the first time. Cameren Torgerud from the newly opened “Studio Payne” gallery commented, “Everything went well for me!” First time outdoor exhibitor Saskia Nichols of Sheherazade’s Daughters commented, “I have ideas for next year already!” Potter Joanie Miller commented, “I sold my pottery for the first time there and did well.” The goal of recruiting talent via our immediate ethnic community was also met this year. One great example is the American Indian Magnet School dancers and drummers, who explained the meaning behind each dance they performed and invited the community to join them in a pow-wow as a finale. A volunteer commented, “What I love best about our community is our diversity. Art in the Hollow provided opportunity to speak with women whose culture is new to me, 20 somethings finding a path in life, artists describing their work, and friends.” Local students were integrally involved. We were delighted to have the East Side Thrive after school program return to present a musical production about Swede Hollow history. Johnson High School students sold ceramics at the Teen Activities tent and youth from the Dayton’s Bluff Recreation Center staffed the Kids Activities tent. Other successes this year included: Improved sound for the performance stage, which was powered by a solar generator for the first time. Hope Community Academy has been a great partner, providing a rain site and parking free of charge. In spite of some issues with recruiting artists, the sculpture contest was much better than last year and we had excellent entries. Many artists reported successful sales, including potter Carin Ekstrand, who said “I did better at Art in the Hollow than Grand Old Days the next day.” There also seemed to be great camaraderie among the exhibitors, and one first-timer said “I did learn a lot about what it takes to be in an art fair. Other vendors near me were very nice and helpful.” Challenges included: We had slightly fewer exhibitors (45 total) and attendees this year (1500 total), probably due to the forecast which predicted rain all day, and we did get a brief shower. Some volunteers and a few exhibitors expressed exhaustion due to the physical demands of the location and not enough support. Some exhibitors said the sites were a bit cramped and requested that the grass be cut back more. Outreach included social media (Facebook, artinthehollow.org), flyers at local businesses, and a press release that was distributed to local media (including St. Paul Pioneer Press, Minneapolis Star Tribune, East Side Review, and Dayton’s Bluff District Forum). This year for the first time MPR broadcast an interview with organizer Romi Slowiak. The CABARET! “East Side’s Got Talent” fundraising event was a great success and had the benefit of attracting new talented performers and serving as a preview to the Art in the Hollow Festival for the community. We make Art in the Hollow accessible to our low-income community by offering a day of performances, artistic demonstrations, and public sculpture free of charge. We also offer affordable entry fees for exhibitors and vendors. To help meet the physical challenges of this venue, volunteers provided assistance with set-up and tear-down. We also provided dollies to help artists carry their materials to the sites. The police returned this year to offer assistance with their “mule” mini car. The Wise Elders history booth was relocated to a more central location to make it easier to access, especially for the elderly. Some exhibitors were also located above the park entrance so they would not have to transport their materials up and down the steep tunnel. We will continue to offer this option at future festivals. In spite of its challenges, Swede Hollow Park remains a beloved location. An exhibitor commented “This is a beautiful way to introduce people to the park…I saw a bluebird, a hummingbird, and cardinals!” Another vendor described the park as “magical.” While difficult to quantify, Art in the Hollow is a gathering where our community uses art to connect with our history, our diverse cultures, and with nature. East Side resident Cathy Saunders commented “I made an effort to let all of the vendors I visited know that I appreciated them sharing their talents with the neighborhood. It certainly has made an impressive impact on my life…”",,10861,"Other, local or private",15861,,"Karin DuPaul, Mike Grealish, Jim Davidson, Murph Dawkins, Bette Johnson, Romi Slowiak, Andy Twedt, Angela DuPaul, Brad Griffith",0.00,"Friends of Swede Hollow","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for the 7th annual Art in the Hollow ~ Artists in Action, a one-day multidisciplinary outdoor arts festival.

Our quantitative goals are to sell 400 tickets to our weekend performances at Maplewood Community Center in May, to achieve a ticket sales demographic of 35% seniors and 5% children; to achieve our financial goals as stated in the project budget; and to successfully schedule and deliver a minimum of three free summer performances at various venues. Methods of evaluation will include a count of ticket sales/calculation of demographics; comparison of financial results to the project budget; count of summer performances and solicitation of informal word-of-mouth feedback from summer audience members; survey of Maplewood Community Center audience members at our May performances; and a formal survey and annual meeting with Harmonic Relief choir members to assess the success of our qualitative goals for the participants.","Our artistic goals included providing a creative/challenging/fun experience for our artists and an entertaining performance for our audiences. We hoped to attract 400 audience members to our spring show, and provide at least three free summer performances. These goals were largely met, with the exception of selling 400 tickets (approximately 340 were sold). Our artists (singers/instrumentalists) indicated that they found presenting this show to be artistically creative and challenging, as well as great fun! Audience members, both at our theater show and our free summer shows, have consistently told us how well they liked the performance. While we did not sell as many tickets to our spring show as we would have liked, we did provide 5 free summer performances which were enthusiastically received and well attended, including the Como Pavilion in St. Paul, the Edina 4th of July parade, Bryant Square Park in Minneapolis, Roseville Central Park in Roseville, and the Birchwood Village Music Series in in Birchwood. One strength of our process is our team repertoire planning to select a wide range of musical styles and levels, which helps ensure all singers have some challenge and audience members are exposed to both old favorites as well as songs that may be new to them. Another strength is our show chair/co-chair approach, which ensures someone is marshaling all the details of the operations and helping all details to be met. Our vocal coach ensures the music achieves the highest degree of excellence possible, which our choreographer works with the show chair to come up with a cohesive look, feel and flow to the show. Our challenge is to put more emphasis on our marketing efforts to attract more audience members to our spring show, which features all the bells and whistles (emcee, horns, drums, bass, lighting and projections, etc.) that make the show a real event. The free summer concerts do not include all of these features, and they really make the experience special for those in attendance, so in future better use of local media and other forms of marketing need to be engaged to get the word out and grow our audience. While we added selling space in our programs for ads and offered concessions, which recouped most of the lost ticket revenue, our goal is really to present to a bigger audience - so that is our challenge for the future. One community we serve is that group of adults (primarily, but not exclusively, in the east metro) who want to participate in the art form of show choir. Another community is that of people who enjoy live choral shows and may enjoy a show choir format, primarily focused on the east metro area. Our target audience includes adults, families with children, and seniors. Our spring show audience comprised above our target of 31% (closer to 40%) of seniors attending and slightly below the target of 5% of children attending. The Maplewood theater is fully ADA-compliant and is intimate enough to ensure good sight lines and good acoustics. In order to reach audiences that may not be able to attend or afford our show at the Maplewood Community Center, we presented portions of ""Magic to Do"" at several free summer music series, including Como Pavilion, Edina 4th of July parade, Bryant Square Park music series, Roseville Central Park music series, and Birchwood Village Music Series. These events are completely free and open to the public and generally in venues that are accessible, with diverse audiences (economically, ethnically and age). The audiences at these events include toddlers up to great-grandparents and reflect the economic and ethnic diversity of area residents. While we only get verbal feedback from the audiences, overwhelmingly they tell us how much they enjoyed the show. Although the show choir genre necessarily includes physical movement, we continue to strive for ways to performers to be engaged as their physical limitations will allow. This is the second year in which a member had a physical challenge that we were able to work with, so that they were fully engaged in the production without any discernible distraction to the audience. We are happy to be able to offer this flexibility for those that want to participate. Our singers unanimously indicated that the music and choreography included in this project was creatively challenging and fun. Over 70% of our audience members surveyed express that the show's musical diversity is fun and interesting, and that the presentation including choreography, staging, props and emcee makes the show more enjoyable.",,9550,"Other, local or private",14550,,"Michele Johnson, Becky Elston, Robert Gestner, Donna Balitz, Scott Meyer",0.00,"Harmonic Relief","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for three performances of Magic to Do, a two-hour show featuring an eclectic mix of songs ranging from Broadway to old standards to pop.

These children and youth will learn Hmong, Lao and other Asian dance styles and learning will culminate with performances at the 2016 Hmong New Year celebrations in Saint Paul. Evaluation methods utilized in the Dance classes include daily student attendance, student surveys of program satisfaction and instructor examination of student ability in designated skill areas.","The following artistic goals were provided in the original dance class proposal: It is the long-term goal of the Dance Instruction program at Hmong Cultural Center to ensure that knowledge of traditional Hmong and other Asian Dances are passed along to children and youth. Three levels of teaching are providing in the Dance Instruction program. These levels are Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced. Beginning students must learn the Hmong dance “Yuav Tsum Sib Hlub,” translated as “You Must Love Each Other.” Beginning students mainly focus on this first dance before they are able to advance to the intermediate group and other dances. The Intermediate students are introduced to new songs and dances. In addition to Hmong dance routines, they learn certain Laotian, Thai and Indian styles. The Advanced students move at a faster pace. They learn a new dance every two months. Before students can be in the Advanced group, they must have already been trained in a range of Hmong, Laotian, Thai and Indian dances. They must also have had a year of dancing experience at the Hmong Cultural Center. The Dance class program was successfully carried out over the grant period. A total of 26 dance students aged 7-17 were served in the 3 class levels with dance instruction over the past year. Dance class members showcased skills learned in class by performing at several events in 2016 including Asian American Day at the Mall of America in May 2016, the Little Mekong Night Market in August 2016, and at Hmong New Year events across the Twin Cities area in November and December 2016. As stated in the original proposal: ""Most of the youth and young adults served by the Dance Instruction Program come from the Frogtown, Eastside and North End neighborhoods of Saint Paul. Some of the participants also reside in other parts of the Twin Cities area. Participants are primarily aged 7-17. Hmong Cultural Center estimates about 50% of its arts program participants may be classified as “low-income” and “at-risk”, the organization estimates about 1/3 of participants come from middle class backgrounds. The Hmong poverty rate in Minnesota according to 2014 American Community Survey data was about 16.5% compared to 7.5% among all Minnesota families. Over the past decade, foreclosure crisis and economic recession in Minnesota hit the Hmong community hard. At the same time, several foundations in Minnesota have moved away from funding arts-focused afterschool programs over the past several years. The Hmong community of the Twin Cities is very much in need of accessible arts enrichment programs for children and youth. As projected, over the grant period, the Dance program served primarily Hmong female students aged 7-17 residing in Saint Paul neighborhoods with free instruction in traditional Hmong and Asian dances. The availability of the dance program at Hmong Cultural Center enhanced the diversity of arts programming available to minority populations in the East Metro area. Over the grant period, students performed at such events as the Asian Pacific American Day at the Mall of America in May 2016 and the Hmong New Year in November and December 2016. A total of 26 Hmong female students aged 7-17 were served in the Dance classes on Sunday afternoons from Noon-5 PM at Hmong Cultural Center over the grant period. 8 students were served in the beginner class, 7 students in the intermediate class and 11 students in the advanced class.

The project will be evealuated by recording the number of concerts performed, number of attendees, reviewing comments and other feedback from audience and family members, venue personnel, and the Honeywell Concert Band director and musicians. Additional evealuation of the project will involve a review by the Honeywell Concert Band board and membership of the new music purchased for the project; the quality and value of the music purchased, and the degree to which this music satisfies the intended objective s for the target venues as well as for the Honeywell Concert Band.","The primary artistic goal of this project was to provide an interesting variety of musical selections specifically tailored to the interests of each audience. Honeywell Concert Band performed a total of 11 concerts at 10 different venues. Due to age, mobility, economic status, or geographic location, the audiences at each venue are underserved with respect to live performances of musical art, specifically concert band performances. The Honeywell Concert Band successfully accomplished this goal by performing a well-planned mix of light classics, marches, jazz, Dixieland, Broadway musicals, and other show tunes. Each audience was very responsive to the Honeywell Concert Band's performance and the opportunity to hear featured small groups and soloists. We tried to accommodate two new venues this year, and while one worked very well (Friendship Village) the other (Bel Rae Senior Living) was too small to accommodate our group. We were able to provide enjoyment to the residents, but artistically it was not a good fit. We will continue to seek out new venues, but will be mindful that they are large enough to host a group our size. The format of this project seems to work well as evidenced by our audiences' reactions, and each venue's eagerness to have us return. We made a special effort to include audience participation this year, and would like to continue to increase that aspect of our performances, especially at the care centers and senior citizen complexes which make up 60% of our venues. The Honeywell Concert Band has been serving the intended audience for many years, and we have a good understanding of that community. We estimated we would reach 1200 audience participants, and we were successful in reaching 1455. We continue to struggle with balancing the early start times desired by many care centers and senior complexes with the daytime employment of many of our band members. We have now moved most of our start times to 7:00 rather than 7:30 with little if any inconvenience to our musicians. We estimated our musicians to be 35 in number, and while that number fluctuates we are close with our current roster of 33 members, and are actively recruiting new members. Our project's goal is to serve those typically underserved by the arts, and live concert band performances in particular. This year, 70% of our venues are care centers and senior facilities where the residents are quite diverse. We performed at centers with varying religious affiliations, economic situations, and level of independence in living. The other 30% of our venues are public parks where our free concerts attract young as well as older people, and include families with small children. Among our musicians there is diversity in ability, and experience. The Honeywell Concert Band chooses music that can challenge each musician, but is not beyond any member's capabilities, and time is spent improving our basic musical skills. The venues served by this project have many accessibility attributes due to public regulation such as zoning and building requirements. Programs are printed in large print format and provided at each concert. There is never a fee to the venues or audience members for Honeywell Concert Band performances, and there is no fee to participate as a musician, making the project accessible to audiences and musicians alike. Our practice area at Honeywell is also ADA compliant, and we have a wheelchair available to any member who desires to use it. The 33 members of the Honeywell Concert Band played 11 concerts to audiences totaling approximately 1400 people, slightly more than we anticipated. We engaged the musicians and audiences with several new numbers acquired for the project, and feedback from the venues was very positive, with each of them requesting we return again.

The message is really powerful. It sets the record straight about who we are and what our lives are like.” – Lead artist Olivia Levins Holden on the mural at Saint Stephen’s Human Services. Hope Community proposed to complete one community mural project with youth. Because of unique partnership opportunities that surfaced during the grant period, we were able to complete one youth mural project at Centro Tyron Guzmán on Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis and one adult mural project at Saint Stephens Human Services on Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis during the grant period. The teams were each led by two artists who met with participants over several months to plan, sketch, develop their artistic skills and implement their vision. All the artists were developed as participants in Hope’s work and were mentored to become leaders in this work. The final murals are available to all community members and can be viewed at http://bit.ly/2hbFxc3 (Saint Stephen’s) and https://vimeo.com/186446150/recommended (Centro). One hundred percent (100%) of the 38 participants increased their artistic skills throughout the project. Participants sketched all the mural elements, which were pieced together into the mural with the support of the lead artists. Every participant displayed increased artistic skill throughout the project and all who attended the mural unveilings spoke publicly about their role in the project. Saint Stephen’s was a new partnership and it was a new demographic for Hope to work with homeless people. We had to develop strategies for effectively working with this population, and we saw very quickly how important the mural became to the people who participated. This, in turn, changed their behavior in the mural process and in other projects at Saint Stephen’s. With the support of our trained, mentored facilitators, participants reduced the number of conflicts they experienced both within the project and elsewhere at Saint Stephen’s over time (as reported by Saint Stephens’s staff and Hope mentors). Hope’s skill is in creating an environment in which creative expression, leadership development and personal growth can occur at the same time. What worked well? The flexibility of plan, the ability to change in developing relationships. Participants felt pride in the process. Like the change up in physical space. When you provide space and treat people with humanity magic happens. Support from other Minneapolis Institute of Art staff. Felt institutionally supported. Unveiling went well. Great continuity amongst partners. Transitioning from conversation, ideas, sketch, to paint. What didn't work well? Needed better storage for scaffolding equipment and training. Needed more clarity on roles among organizations. What we would change? In the future, we will involve more artist participation in the planning. Consider smaller projects to maintain relationships. Amplify more stories. “As the project got going, (the youth’s) minds became more prepped to communicating. It wasn’t so arduous. In the beginning, it was like, ‘What do we draw?’ As we got into the project they were overflowing with ideas and it was pouring out. Now it’s a natural part of their lives.” – Andrés Guzmán, lead artist on the Centro mural. We reached an even broader community than originally anticipated. We hoped to complete one new mural during the grant period and refurbish elements of previously completed murals. Because the partnership opportunity with Saint Stephen’s and Minneapolis Institute of Art surfaced, we were able to complete a second mural reaching a different underrepresented community. This provided more community diversity than originally anticipated. During the grant period we worked with Latino youth and homeless adults, all of whom are people of color. The participants in our program were driven by the project’s organizational partnerships. Latino youth involved in Centro Tyrone Guzmán’s Raíces program were the primary participants for that organization’s mural. Although they were all Latino, they were diverse in country of origin, language proficiency and how long they have been in the US. One of the lead artists on that project said, “The theme that revealed itself was Latin American heritage. It was a uniting culture that everyone came from.” Residents of Saint Stephen’s homeless shelter, all of whom are people of color, were the primary participants in that mural. Participants in that project discussed a possible benefit of making that project open to community members beyond Saint Stephen’s residents. There is some concern, however, that opening up participation to others might decrease some of the benefits the participants experienced (e.g., decreased tensions between residents and deeper connected to other Saint Stephen’s programming). Both murals benefited from a partnership with Minneapolis Institute of Art. The lead artist on the Centro project expressed that this was a major benefit to the project. “We worked with Minneapolis Institute of Art so I was able to get (the youth) tools that I like to use in my professional practice. I didn’t have access to that as a young kid,” he said. “They don’t realize it yet, but if they continue with art they will see they are ahead of the curve on ways to communicate their ideas.” We hope to identify additional funding to expand this partnership in 2017. 38 Latino youth created a community mural at Centro Tyrone Guzmán; 15 homeless adults created a community mural at Saint Stephen’s Human Services; 100 percent of participants reported or were observed to have increased artistic skill after participating in the project.",,31165,"Other, local or private",36165,,"Heidi Lasley Barajas, Brockman Schumacher, Muna Abdirahman, Anne Barry, Cecile Bedor, Sharon Sayles Belton, Claire Chang, Patricia Cummings, Clint Hewitt, Jody Jonas, Mary Keefe, Paul Leighton, Maria McLemore, Maria Pabon, Steve Shapiro, Cathrine Smith",0.00,"Hope Community, Inc.","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Community Arts",,"Funding for The Power of Vision, a neighborhood mural program that will engage approximately 30 youth in developing arts and leadership skills.

To evaluate how International Festival of Burnsville strengthens our diverse community by sharing an exceptional arts experience, Burnsville police officers provide crowd size estimates throughout the day; number of festival programs (with tear-off survey) and food/activity ticket sales support overall tally too. International Festival of Burnsville planning group pays close attention to crowd receptiveness (i.e.: how many dance and for how long!) and guest feedback, plus Facebook/online survey responses, to refine our processes for this growing community-building event.","FANTASTIC crowd response to all the fun found in Family Arts and Activities area. ""Share your Story"" booth well-received as young adults read cultural stories aloud, and dozens of guests shared globe-hugging pics via social media --many grins with globe directed to International Festival of Burnsville's Facebook site. FABULOUS audience response to this year's cadre of entertainers. Visit International Festival of Burnsville on Facebook and see the album that mirrors our mission. Do differently? Reassure Native American flagbearer --carrying his tribe's sacred eagle staff, that to walk alongside the US flagbearer carrying the American flag well above the staff, is most appropriate. Committee considers hiring additional henna hand-painters as lines are longest there on the Family Arts and Activities hill. Also add two more tall sandwich boards that encourage guests to visit the cultural booths and exhibit indoors in the Ames Center gallery. Within the gallery, the most favored cultural display booths were those of India and Somalia; at both booths, the women dressed guests in cultural attire which resulted in lots of laughter, smiles, and photo opportunities. France and Germany carried on a lively exchange about cheese and wine pairings, wine bottle labels, and the many immigrants who came to Minnesota. Returning to Family Arts and Activities, visitors were encouraged to enter their contact info into a ""Where in the World Are You?"" book under the Share Your Story Tent --these entries may provide interviews and clips for next year's festival --greater outreach and event promotion. A member of our planning committee (and chairs fam arts and activities area) is also a radio talk show host; Naseema interviewed Burnsville Mayor Elizabeth Kautz, alongside our festival chair Amber Swiggum, for nearly a full hour of festival which ran 'round social media as a podcast! Our outreach efforts were rewarded in many ways: In addition to more sponsors on-site during International Festival of Burnsville, hundreds of guests toured ""Tracks in the Snow: The Muslim Experience in Minnesota"" art gallery exhibit. Do differently? Possibly rent an ATM for our guests to have easier accessibility to cash. Perhaps close 126th Street as space to position sponsors/food vendors; thus opens space in the park for families to gather/picnic. Also need more roving volunteers to supply water on activities hill, sell raffle tickets, alert guests to the first aid tent, and promote cultural booths/gallery exhibit within Ames Center. Marketing efforts to piggyback other community events prior to International Festival of Burnsville. On Family Arts and Activities hill, consider more activities geared to the interests of teenagers. Position rolling coolers in major volunteer areas for more easily available bottled waters; purchase rubber gloves for the Lions' Club volunteers as they handle bottled waters. Also witnessed many more wheelchairs, walkers, and canes than in recent years; delighted to see a girl use her chair to wade into the water feature, and with her grandparent's help, enjoy water play with the other kiddos. Quantitative: Accumulative 5K crowd made for record event food and drink sales; high-energy lessons in cultural arts brought by 40+ culturally diverse performing or instructional artists.

Qualitative: We hope that 90% or more of the participants responding to an post-concert survey will indicate that the music was of high quality and artistically challenging and that collaborative experience allowed them to share their love of choral music with others. We plan to evaluate our anticipated outcomes in quantitative terms by conducting a headcount and survey of audience members on the day of the Festival. To evaluate the qualitative portion of our goals, we will request feedback from guest choirs' directors and participant surveys to the guest choir members post-performance.","The goal of this project was to provide an opportunity for local youth choirs to share their love of the choral arts and perform well-rehearsed, artistically challenging, and culturally-varied repertoire for a large, diverse audience of adults, children and their families. The choral tradition of sharing music was upheld beautifully during the festival. The choirs performed songs in various languages and styles. Our performers and audience of approximately 500 people were culturally diverse and ranging in age from very young children to the elderly. The choirs were also was very blessed to work with world known guest conductor Tefsa Wondemagegnehu in a music clinic prior to the concert. We are so grateful we had the resources to be able to bring in such a brilliant artist to inspire our young artists. The biggest challenge of this project each year is the timing. The day can be rather long for our younger participants, yet the audience surveys often show a desire for more music. We will continue to try to balance this for all involved. We were very successful in reaching our intended community of audience members and participants. Our outreach efforts certainly resulted in community diversity. Ethnic minority of participants for Twin Cities Youth Chorale is 30%. English-Language-Learners comprise approximately 13% of membership. We largely met our goals for making our project open and accessible to all who wished to participate. Guest choirs participated at no cost to themselves and audience members were admitted to the concert for free. Large print programs and a hearing-assist sound system was available. Translation services were requested and we will be discussing ways to work that into our budget for 2016/17 year. Although no bus service was available on weekends, the venue we chose this year proved to work extremely well in every other way and we plan to host this event at the same location next year. Surveys results showed that the vast majority of participants (94%) and nearly 100% of audience members indicated a medium-high to high enjoyment level. Both performers and audience members alike commented that the highlight of the day was when all the youth sang together during the opening and closing songs.

A second goal is that 100% of the participating artists will consider the experience to have been rewarding and something they wish to do again in the future. The average attendance will be evaluated by counting the number of tickets collected at each concert. We will solicit post-performance feedback from the participating artists to ascertain their level of satisfaction and willingness to perform with Joya in the future.","We believe that we did achieve our artistic goals. We presented the Anoka audience with a wide range of chamber music performed by some of the region's best musicians. The amount of rehearsal was sufficient to allow the performers to do their best. Post-performance discussions with the artists indicate that all were pleased and would be happy to perform on a Joya concert in the future. What worked particularly well was the balance in the musical selections. The audience and performers were challenged and energized by the more modern selections but also greatly enjoyed the more traditional classical works. We are proud of our dedication to high level artistry and all of the performers were equally dedicated. The ability to retain top notch talent is certainly one of the strengths of our process. Another strength is our planning, particularly regarding rehearsals. Months in advance we gathered all of the performers schedules/conflicts and worked out a rehearsal schedule that worked for all. Our biggest challenges are related more to logistics and publicity. In particular, it is challenging to promote the concerts adequately and a failure to do so could result in a smaller than desired audience. Despite these challenges we did manage to average 250 audience members at each concert which exceeded our goal of 200. We did reach our intended community. Our audience members were mostly from the Anoka area but there were audience members from all over the Twin Cities area. We were also able to serve the artists by presenting them the opportunity to perform chamber music in a visually and acoustically beautiful venue before a most appreciative audience. We did achieve most of our goals regarding diversity. The performer's ranged in age from 30 to 63. The performers were also diverse as regards their background/professional situation: ranging from an independent freelance violist to the Music Director of the Minnesota Orchestra. The concert with Maestro Vänskä and Concertmaster Keefe, likely due to their ""celebrity"" factor, was successful in attracting many audience members that would not otherwise attend a chamber music concert. That same concert was also successful in attracting more students than any previous Joya concert. Attracting more students remains one of our goals and we hope that to find ways to increase the attendance of students/young people at future Joya concerts. We are grateful to the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council and its grant proposal process for highlighting accessibility concerns that we might not have otherwise considered. The writing of the grant put accessibility at the forefront of our minds. This directly led to us allowing audiences members with disabilities to seat early so that they would not be at a disadvantage in selecting a seat and would not have to ""race the crowd."" One (elderly) couple commented too us, ""We just can't travel downtown anymore. If it weren't for Joya, we would not get to hear such wonderful live music."" Other accessibility concerns were accommodated as described in our narrative. The venue, Zion Lutheran Church, provides a highly accessible space including parking, elevators, and wheel chair seating. We continued our tradition of having one of the performers verbally describe each piece. This is done partially to educate the audience but also to allow those who cannot read the program to still know the selections being performed. We would like to find ways to attract more students. We did offer free admission to students and plan to continue to do so in the future. We had a goal of 200 people per concert and averaged 250. 500 people attended the two concerts that were performed by 7 different artists. We received feedback from audience members that included comment such as: Joya performances are the very best concerts one can attend in the Twin Cities, and I don't just mean chamber music concerts""; ""The Joya concerts are a highlight of our lives.""",,5050,"Other, local or private",9250,,"DeeAnn Cameron, Mary Jo Gothmann, Diane Hewitt, Bruce Messer, Michelle Messer",0.00,"JOYA!

The goal of the event was to connect the festival to the historic event in Somalia that preceded it, which is why festival attenders are a main target for marketing. Ka Joog hope was to engage universities and youth volunteers because another goal of the event was to educate the younger generation about Somali history. Although the intended community for the project was mainly the Somali community. However, non-Somalis community members did took part and participated in the project.

Senior community staff surveys and interviews have been positive and completely validate our mission to fund as many senior concerts as we can to increase arts access.","achieved proposed outcomes",,,,,"Natalie VanBurkleo-Carbonara, Dave Carbonara, Tatyana Smith, Mary Prescott, Dayna Berg",0.00,"Summit Music",Individual,"Flexible Support",,"Summit Music Senior Outreach Support",2021-06-16,2021-09-30,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Natalie,VanBurkleo-Carbonara,"Summit Music","3312 Shepherd Hills Dr",Bloomington,MN,55431,"(612) 968-2865",summitmusicseries@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Hennepin,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/flexible-support-416,"Candida Gonzalez, Community Education, Community Service / Development, General Administration; Donna Ray; Halee Kirkwood, Artistic, Volunteerism, Education; Naomi Ko, Artistic; Sam Conrad, Accessibility/Disability Access, Artistic, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion.","Cristeta Boarini: 826 MSP Program Director; Robyn Cline: City of Savage Economic Development Commissioner; Amanda Cortes: Artspace and Springboard for the Arts; Paul Creager: Square Lake Film and Music Festival Founder and Director; Adrienne Doyle: Juxtaposition Arts Tactical Lead and Development Associate; Craig Dunn: Access Consultant; Tricia Heuring: Public Functionary Executive Director; Alejandra Iannone: Interdisciplinary Artist and Sparkle Theatricals Creative Creative Director; Ryan-Olivia McCoy: Black Label Movement and Shapeshift dancer; Christal Moose: Native Arts Collaborative Agency and Native Pride Productions, Inc.

Participants loved the curriculum the teaching artists had developed and the biggest request was more frequency or opportunities to build on the art skills they learned. Around accessibility, the issue was timing, and throughout the workshop series we adjusted for later starts to accommodate weekday evening courses. From the instructors' respective we sat down regularly and checked in on how prepared they felt for teaching and how supported they felt by our organization. Some of the artists wanted more or less in-class presences from us as organizers and we made that adjustment where it was needed. When we held our youth courses teachers requested more support with classroom management and we made the adjustment to be present for all of the youth courses.

Outcomes: The survey indicated that most non-Iranians and Iranians interacted (86%) and gained a deeper understanding of Iranian people and culture (79%). The prospect of the festival stimulated positive change: more artists participated, and members of the community got together to produce programming that had not been offered before, including an Iranian folk dance troupe, a daf (Iranian frame drum) ensemble, and a new Iranian music quartet.

NACDI connected us with Anishinabe Academy, a Native-centered elementary school in our neighborhood. The school featured our show as part of their October Family Night. Although the students learn Dakota and Ojibwe, the coordinator said that the chance to see and hear another Native language through the arts was exciting. MAICC connected us with The Solidarity Street Gallery, a festival in East St. Paul in September that focused on Native sovereignty. It was especially inspiring to follow MAICC's showcase of pre-K traditional dancers and get positive feedback from the school leaders. An unexpected opportunity increased our reach to Native youth and families. Ordway Center for Performing Arts presented the virtual show and, at our request, offered free access to Native groups.

By taking over the space and artist can do all the things they need to in one place -- rehearse, reflect, rest, eat, dialogue, and even do their admin tasks -- without worrying about time or money or how they are going to get food.

A survey was conducted in which 100% of members enjoyed learning a new dance project and was also a traditional dance outside of their regional area. 75% of members are from Cuenca and 25% are from Canar. The Capariche dance is from Quito which is capital of Ecuador. The project helped expand the members' cultural knowledge by learning another regional dance that is completely new and it received high popularity within social media (Facebook and Youtube) when the dance video was released to the public. The video has gained 5.8k views which passed our last year view count of 2.7k views. The demand for a new upcoming dance project from the general public is high due to our increase of views which is a good thing as it made a positive impact for the Ecuadorian community in discovering a new traditional dance from another region.","achieved proposed outcomes",,,,,"Lyton Guallpa-Naula, Sara Naula, Litzy Guallpa-Naula",0.00,"Away Runakuna","Non-Profit Business/Entity","Flexible Support",,"Capariche 2021 Dance Project",2021-03-17,2021-12-31,"Arts & Cultural Heritage Fund",Completed,,,Lyton,Guallpa-Naula,"Away Runakuna","788 E 7th St","St Paul",MN,55106,"(612) 518-8999",awayrunakuna@gmail.com,Grants/Contracts,"Minnesota State Arts Board, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council",,Ramsey,,,http://www.legacy.mn.gov/projects/flexible-support-259,"Anton Jones, Artistic, Education, Community Service / Development; Dee Baskin, Community Education, Volunteerism, Audience Development / Marketing; Karla Arredondo Payan, Organizational Development, Fundraising, Community Service / Development; martha bird, Accessibility/Disability Access, Artistic, Equity, Diversity, Inclusion; Michael Curran, Artistic, Marketing/Audience Development, Program Development; Shoua Salas, Organizational Development, Community Service / Development, Youth Programming; Suzanne Roberts, Artistic, Community Education, Education.","Cristeta Boarini: 826 MSP Program Director; Robyn Cline: City of Savage Economic Development Commissioner; Amanda Cortes: Artspace and Springboard for the Arts; Paul Creager: Square Lake Film and Music Festival Founder and Director; Adrienne Doyle: Juxtaposition Arts Tactical Lead and Development Associate; Craig Dunn: Access Consultant; Tricia Heuring: Public Functionary Executive Director; Alejandra Iannone: Interdisciplinary Artist and Sparkle Theatricals Creative Creative Director; Ryan-Olivia McCoy: Black Label Movement and Shapeshift dancer; Christal Moose: Native Arts Collaborative Agency and Native Pride Productions, Inc.

Our remote rehearsals worked. Our masked and mostly distanced blocking rehearsals worked. We had no COVID incidents. We instituted a mask policy for attendance. Through both surveys and discussions with audience members during intermissions, we found an excited audience, happy to be back in the theater. We did lose a couple groups who objected to the mask requirement, though every major theater in the Twin Cities required them. The pandemic delay to our production from 2020 to 2021 cost us three BIPOC performers, so our goal of increasing BIPOC representation in both company (we had 2) and audience (7%) was not as robust as we had hoped. We did build new audience, as 43% were new to CAE.","achieved most of the proposed outcomes",,"Other,local or private",,,"Randall Findlay, Jacob Lewis, Michael A.
