Response 2.2: ZTo a place fifty rriles or wore away fromtheir place of residence or business for the day or staying overnight; <br />Projection* During the month of August 2,200 people visited Roslyn and looked at art in one or <br />more businesses. <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Response 2.2: We arrived at that number by counting samples of people stopping by the Roslyn <br />Evidence* Art Fest booth at the Roslyn Farmers Market on four Sundays. As we did in 2017, <br />we also conducted 100 intermittent interviews with adults who purchased mugs or <br />posters. 65 people had a primary residence over 50 miles from Roslyn. We can <br />thus estimate that 1,760 of the 2,200 visitors we counted live over 50 miles away. <br />A statistic from 2017 is also helpful. In August, 85% of the Suncadia Lodge visitors <br />were from the west side, especially Seattle and Tacoma. Suncadia heavily markets <br />the Roslyn Art Fest by including Art Fest cards in visitors 'welcome' packages, <br />displaying the cards prominently on a rack in the lobby and including full-color, full <br />page copies of he poster in their June and July brochures which goes out to 18,000 <br />people. <br />During the 2018 Juried Show 40 pieces of art were on display for one month. The <br />show featured 30 artists, 8 of whom lived more than 50 miles away and who came <br />to Roslyn to deliver art, and pick it up. We had 45 people attend the Saturday <br />opening event and 30 of them came from over 50 miles away. <br />In 2017, we know that over 650 adults attended the Saturday night Street Dance. <br />From brief interviews we know that at least 30 of those people live over 50 miles <br />from Roslyn. <br />2500 character linit <br />Response 2.3: 3. or fromanother country or state outside of their place of residence or business. <br />Projection * Over 727 <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Response 2.3: The 2018 Roslyn Farmers Market drew an average of 3,300 adult visitors each <br />Evidence * Sunday. During the month of August, the Art Fest and the Market collaborate don <br />'pin -your location' maps for the country, state and world. (The Market provided a <br />free Art Fest booth for July and August.) <br />Pins showed us that approximately 525 visitors came from states other than <br />Washington and 62 people came from other countries. <br />The Suncadia Lodge reported that, during the month of July, 12 % of their guests <br />came from states other than Washington and 3% were international. <br />While Suncadia supports the Roslyn Arts in many ways they are unable to release <br />more specific data about their guests. <br />This totals over 617 adult tourists. <br />2500 character lirrit <br />Application Questions: Part 2 <br />31 Measuring Results <br />What tools will you use to measure your event's impact on tourism?
