Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We offer a wide variety of experiences incorporating as much diverse talent to appeal to a broad spectrum of Fillmore County residents and beyond on a pay-what-you-can basis. The season includes music, dance, theatre, puppetry, and song, boasting content personal, historical, local, and global. The Dreamery will evaluate using written surveys, photo and video documentation, feedback interviews, group discussions, and numerical data (guest counts, zip code comparison, dollars garnered, etc.).

Measurable Outcome(s)

The intent was to offer an affordable variety of experiences incorporating as much diverse talent to appeal to a broad spectrum of the public in Fillmore County and beyond. Dreamery goals are as much to expand exposure to and understanding of art forms as to open minds through content.
