As a result of this project, community members (artists and attendees) will work more closely together in the future to create programs that reflect the cultural identities of the people whose history is shaped by the events of Old Crossing. Evaluation will occur through follow-up meetings with project planners, who include artists and the organization's board members who work over the year to produce an interactive community program reflecting cultural identities associated with Old Crossing, where the event takes place.
We evaluated qualitatively by two follow-up meetings with project planners. Interviews were conducted with attendees, and overall audience participation measured by video captions and a documentary produced by one visiting international television crew from CBC. We critiqued personal observations by attendees. The audience was quite engaged in following every performer closely and for the entirety of each performance.
