Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We anticipate 300 audience members will attend this event, featuring a cast of five artists. Audience surveys will show an increase in audience desire to participate in voter advocacy, as evaluated in post-show surveys. We will do an audience count. We will include written/online post-show surveys of both audiences and artists.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The most significant outcome was the development of a strong bond with MK Nguyen. Although she came into this project as a consultant, she has become much more of a collaborator and conspirator in our efforts towards increased civic engagement. She has linked us with community organizations, and a Wilder Foundation cohort that will inform much of our future work.
