Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The O'Shaughnessy will continue to focus programs to professionally serve artists and audiences that better represent the Twin Cities population. We will track the number and nature of events presented. Artist and audience demographics (gender, race, ethnicity, age, zip code) will be tracked as they are discernable. We will seek qualitative feedback from artists and audiences.

Measurable Outcome(s)

O'Shaughnessy has re-defined its mission and programming scope in order to connect more strongly to our local community. Ten of the twelve local arts orgs we worked with this year contracted to use our space again next year and next year's programming will be double that of this year due to increases in attendance, positive feedback, and local community partnerships.
