Fisher Naomi - Score: 97.000

Creative learning and art activities in public schools are deeply needed to enhance creativity and bring joy to school. - This seems more centered on libraries, museums, and art education centers, which is also good.

Process of the activity is well described in "Project Activities."

Currently collaborating with Library System. 

Artist has completed over 70 programs in 55 Library Branches already.

Has completed accessibility checklists. Has completed surveys.

Documentation is very cute and fun, has a video game feel while fostering creativity and learning. Great project.

Impressed by the capacity building nature of this initiative – by providing a blueprint for public libraries to facilitate workshops in the future, and naturally, by supporting literacy and creative expression among a diverse population. Also the demonstrated experience / success this artist has had by already having carried out this initiative in other parts of FL.

 

The accessibility of this project is strong, given they are working within public libraries.

 

Re: artist project section – the statement could be more specific about how it will achieve the selected goals… and somehow it sounds like a different project? How is the shape painting event related to the Floridingers project?...

 

The budget is vague and items could be broken down further to improve transparency. For example “Perdita Ross Artist of Floridinger books conducts Book Readings and manages Active Learning program” conveys as more than one task, should some pf this be listed under the Personnel: Administrative area and how is “managing the active learning program” different from “Manage grant details and books library readings” already listed under that section. Also, given Gordon Halleck is noted to be the reader, that role be accounted for somewhere in this budget.

Ponce Libbi - Score: 86.000
Photos of the physical book printed out would improve the application.
