Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The 25th anniversary concert will be with the highest artistic quality and showcase many different aspects of Chinese dances. We anticipate over 350 audience members will attend the concert. After the concert, Minnesota Chinese Dance Theater will participate in at least 4 outreach concerts to the general public for free to estimated 2,000 audience members. The project will be evaluated by the success of the concert such as the quality of the dances and the size of the audience. The ticket sales and donations will be additional measurements to determine the success of the project.
