"Working with Metris on Adding It Up helped Pillsbury House + Theatre and our consortium of community partners to clearly define our intended impacts and figure out how we were doing in terms of reaching them. While this was primarily conceived as an evaluation project, it has enhanced everything we do and has helped us talk about the work in a new a much more powerful way.” —Noel Raymond, Co-Artistic Director, Pillsbury House + Theatre
