Project Description

With support from the California Arts Council, Studios for the Performing Arts Operating Co (dba CLARA) will contract with a nonprofit evaluation specialist to train our executive director, education outreach director, and community programs director in best practices for evaluation design, data collection, and data analysis. This training will include analysis of existing program evaluation metrics for accuracy and efficiency, and guide staff towards a process of continuous learning.

Organization Summary

CLARA provides 6,800 students in Sacramento County with in-school artist residencies, where a working artist comes to their class for an hour per week over 10 weeks to explore a specific genre of dance, music, or theatre. We also provide 50,000 students with digital access to arts learning through our virtual platform, CLARA Classroom. And, about 200 elementary age students have their first experiences in an array of performing arts genres through CLARA’s Performing Arts Summer Camp. A portion of these programs are donated free of charge to the students of Sacramento City Unified School District, as rent for the decommissioned school building that CLARA now manages to be a home for six diverse cultural organizations in our community.
