Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We intend to continue to present concerts, whether virtual or in-person--to connect musicians to audiences and make sure the artists get paid. We will count the countables: events presented, artists employed, and (if we can figure out how to count virtual audiences) audience numbers.
