Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, audience members will listen to folk and folk-rock music performed by local artists, identify relationships between local and regional history and modern musical performance/interpretation of that history through artists' narratives and song lyrics, and identify tyis music performance as a positive opportunity to experience and learn about history. Evaluation methods include an audience survey shared during the event and open for one week following the event to measure audience enjoyment of the program and whether or not they were able to make connections to history through the music program.
