Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The measurable outcome that will result from these grant funds will be an increase in the artistic managing director's compensation to $27/hour for an average twenty-five hour work week per fiscal year. The proposed outcome will be evaluated by an ongoing review of Great River Chorale's stipend for its artistic managing director to assure that it reflects a twenty-five-plus hour work week per year.
