The Friends seeks a short term arts program evaluation contractor for the 2018 Moving Words: Writers Across Minnesota project. The Friends, as the Minnesota Center for the Book, is engaged in a seven-month arts tour with 13 locations around the state.

This temporary role will involve working with programming staff to create evaluation tools, such as comment cards, surveys, and interviews, to gather quantitative and qualitative data from those participating in our tour program. It will also involve creating a professional report of evaluation findings to be shared with The Friends staff, board, and grant funders so that we may improve our reach and think strategically about how to better deliver our programming.

- Reporting findings in an accessible and well-made report
Requirements:
- At least two years of experience in program evaluation, quantitative & qualitative data analysis
- Excellent analytical, writing, and communication skills
- Time-management, interpersonal communication, and organizational skills
