Measurable Outcome(s)

We presented performances and outreach chamber music programs by guest artists that inspired, engaged, and connected audiences, making meaningful impact by building community through education, networks and partnerships. We expanded our volunteer base, continued board development. Audience surveys and board meeting activity assessments enabled our evaluation and measurements of the outcomes.
