Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The goal of the Minnesota Sinfonia is for people of all ages, ethnicities, and abilities to be able to enjoy and participate as audience members, or students, or artists with the Sinfonia. Success is defined as an audience with a wide divergence of education, income, and ethnicity. Success is measured by surveys of audiences at public concerts, and additional surveys of the teachers at our partnering public schools.
Measurable Outcome(s)
The Minnesota Sinfonia absolutely met its goal for people of all ages, ethnicities and abilities to be able to enjoy and participate Sinfonia activities. The Sinfonia uses in-depth anonymous surveys four times per year for different audiences at different types of performances. It also meets regularly with funders, sponsors and audience members.
