That can be recording , website , lessons or other needs. Evaluation methods include a post event one on one interview with each female artist who applied. The interview will be carried out by organizers of the event one week after the celebration concert to measure impact of this opportunity to assist the artist in reaching their goals . Survey will follow the artist after they have taken part in the activity that was carried out to progress their careers / goals .
