and the criteria they used to measure the success of their project in meeting their goals and how they believe the project affected the life of our community.
Additionally, as identified in earlier reports to Council, all of the projects selected are required to identify the City of Windsor as a funder to the project through the display of the City logo with the accompanying words "Supported by the City of Windsor's Arts, Culture & Heritage Fund (ACHF) achfwindsor.ca" on all project materials. As requested by members of City Council with previous reports, the successful applicants are featured on our website under "ACHF Success Stories." They are also invited to display/showcase their finished projects, where appropriate, at specific city events such as the Culture Summit, City Birthday celebration, and potentially the Mayor's Arts Awards (an event held in partnership with the Windsor Endowment for the Arts). Information about the projects is also shared in monthly Culture E-Blasts.
