Hi all, it’s that time of year when I reflect on the last 12 months and write my annual narrative. In this report, you’ll read Project Highlights on four current and past projects and how I incorporated arts-based methods into nearly all of them. It also includes an Our Impact section that shares how we are giving back to our community through fundraising and moving money, as well as how we are making a small-but-mighty Environmental Impact. Lastly, there is a closing reflection about what’s to come this upcoming year!

Also, we talk about an upcoming workshop, Arts-Based Evaluation Methods: Collage. It is next week, on October 20th, and will be in-person in the Twin Cities area. You still have time to register for your spot! Tickets are $500. Reduced fee and two free community-funded tickets are also available. Email moconnor@cococanary.com for the coupon codes. You can register for it today!

And for fun, here’s a client testimonial that gave me all the good feels.

“I also had a chance to read through the full report, and I just want to say how impressive and comprehensive it is. The care, depth, and clarity with which the work is presented really highlight the significance of this study—not only for the Communications Program, but for the entire organization. It’s a powerful example of what it looks like to center lived experience and equity in our evaluation efforts.”
