Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

This program series features four live musical performances and is designed to promote the musical arts, and to educate participants about a variety of music and dance forms. Attendees will enjoy live bands performing toe-tapping dance music, and dance instructors will be on hand to encourage active participation.

Measurable Outcome(s)

This year's program featured 4 bands with dancing instruction for each type of music. An overall attendance of 237 people enjoyed salsa and swing music. Most attendees said that their favorite part of the programs was the music and dancing, but others liked the fellowship, unity and culture, live music, personal (dance) instruction, and being able to bring my 10 year old son to hear this music. All respondents said that they learned how to dance to the music, and about half said that they learned about the instruments being played, and something about the history and culture of the music.
