ACHF Arts Access
The Edina Singing Seniors project continues to reach out to a variety of performance sites throughout the southwest metro that have a limited musical sing-a-long opportunities and to look for four or five new venues each year. With increased publicity at performance sites and the community Edina Singing Seniors hopes to increase the number of audience members by 5-10%. In addition to some audience members being given written surveys to complete and staff at performance sites providing verbal and often written feedback, Edina Singing Seniors also considers being asked for repeat performances as a measure of evaluation. The director and accompanist evaluate each performance, artists complete a written evaluation once yearly and verbal evaluations by all are welcome anytime.
100% of the members of Edina Singing Seniors project expressed that singing to our audiences is fun, physically and intellectually stimulating. Audiences were surveyed and 100% expressed their pleasure in participating in the sing-a-long format and that it was unusual to have artists to spend time visiting with the audience after the performance. No significant percentage increase in audience numbers.
