November 2020 - Evaluation Report. Connecting Communities: Evaluation of the Gasworks Participatory Artists Residency Programme

On the 1st of July 2020, Gasworks' Participatory Artist Residency Programme Evaluation Board decided to frame this report around these four issues:

1. How did the collaboration happen? How interactive was it? How formed was the idea the artists and the participants had beforehand and how did it change through the process?

2. What will be the legacy of the project? What did the participants take from it? What, if any, structures, objects, and practices were left behind?

3. How did the participants feel through the project? Was it enjoyable, scary, annoying? How did those feelings change through the project?

4. What advice do you have for an artist who wants to do a project like this? What would be your advice for the next artist? Do you have any advice for host institutions and the funders of projects like this?

This report is a working document. We will update it as the Participation Residency programme continues to develop.
