ACHF Arts Education
At least 300 people will have attended performances by youth that are mentored by 50 adult artists from Hopewell Orchestras and the Minnesota Sinfonia. The Hopewell Orchestra will advance in American String Teachers Association standards by 1 level and 75% of Hopewell Students being mentored by the Minnesota Sinfonia will indicate their playing ability was enhanced due to this partnership. Hopewell Music will evaluate the project's success in building audience through audience counts at Hopewell Orchestra concerts during the project period. Hopewell will survey its Orchestra students at the end of the project and will use The American String Teacher Association Evaluation Standards at the beginning and end of the project period to evaluate the advancement of the Orchestra.
In addition to reaching our audience goals of 300 attending and member goals of progressing by 1 ASTA level, the Hopewell Orchestra program grew to 28 members in the 2017-2018 season.This is a 1.12% increase from the previous year. 5 new players have already expressed interest for the upcoming school year.
