Submitted By: Arthur L. Johnson, Vice President Community Relations • Submitted by: Arthur L. Johnson, Vice President Community Relations • THE 1991 DETROIT FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS INFORMATION REPORT The fifth annual Detroit Festival of the Arts (DFA) was another successful experience for Wayne State University, the University Cultural Center Association (UCCA) and the City of Detroit. The Festival attracted 175,000 visitors to this celebration of the visual, performing and literary arts. Under the chairmanship of Kenneth Whipple, president, Ford Financial Services, the 1991 Festival received substantial support from Ford Motor Company and other corporate contributors. A total of 106 artists were registered to exhibit at the event. This year's jurors were Richard Bilaitis, WSU; Mary Strope, Michigan Artists Guild; Urban Jupena, WSU; and Gilda Snowden, CCS. Two special cash awards were offered to artists this year. The Arthur L. Johnson Award of Excellence was awarded to eight artists in $250 cash prizes. First Nationwide Bank sponsored the Festival's first corporate awards program. $5000 in art selections were donated to children's hospitals, children's agencies, the Alzheimer's Foundation, and Barat House . There were a number of new and exciting additions to the Festival: guided walking tours • through selected homes in the E. Ferry Avenue Historic Neighborhood, the 100 Languages of Children Art Exhibit in the Scarab Club (the Exhibit was sponsored by Merrill Palmer Institute, WSU; the University of Michigan-Dearborn; the Italian American Cultural Society; and the Scarab Club), horse and buggy rides, and hot air balloon rides on Matthaei Field. Seven area restaurants attempted to beat the Guinness Book of World Records (1,065 feet in length) by creating the "World's Largest Shish Kabob" on Woodward Avenue. It measured 1,077 feet. The staged performances, street performers and Children's Fair continue to be critical elements in the Festival. Poetry, sponsored by LINES: New Writing at the Detroit Institute of Arts, in cooperation with seven poetry organizations, provided poetry readings by 12 authors including four with national reputations.

Focus groups identified non-burdensome ways that project partners were already collecting or could easily collect information to quantify and track impact. This feedback was developed into quantitative surveys that were administered via partners in 2018 and analyzed in early 2019. Forty one percent of City of Design partners collected or are planning to collect data related to their project’s impact. At this early stage of the work, event attendance and demographic data is easiest to collect, and only three partners were able to measure the impact of programming on changes in perspective, thoughts on participation, or building usage. An additional three partners collected data on investment or revenue from public and private sources. Data collection is ongoing. Wherever impact is cited within this report, it has been sourced via these partner data collection efforts. Interviews to inform the development of the three case studies were conducted in March, 2019, by EarlyWorks, llc. 2 DETROIT UNESCO CITY OF DESIGN | 2019 MONITORING REPORT By championing Detroit design, we contribute to the As a result, we are happy to announce that Detroit development of a thriving city that offers opportunities Creative Corridor Center has become Design Core for all.
