Project Grant 8000

If this project achieves the intended outcomes, Saint John’s University expects audiences and residency participants to have a new interest and curiosity about topics relevant the performance that will lead them to explore other offerings from Fine Arts Programming and other Central Minnesota performing arts organizations. Saint John’s University staff members expect that these activities will also strengthen the relationship with our residency partners, which in turn will facilitate future activities.Following the residency activities, Saint John’s University will gather narrative feedback from residency partners to find out if the activities met the intended expectations for each group. Saint John’s University has also set up post-activity meetings to discuss outcomes of the residencies and goals for future partnerships. Saint John’s University will track ticket sales and survey the audiences to find out if this artist attracted new audiences to the performance and if the show was successful at changing perceptions of classical music or hip-hop.
