Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Re-open a newly renovated Reif Performing Arts Center as an accessible regional presenting center and revitalized home for performing artists. Evaluation/Measuring Progress will include the physical renovation/expansion are completed on time and on budget; our new partners are moved in and established; patrons embrace a grand re-opening season.
Measurable Outcome(s)
For the majority of FY 2015, we were conducting a major facility renovation, but we were still able to present 21 events in local community venues. We met with staff, board, and our partners who helped us create arts learning and access opportunities for our constituents. These parties helped to track attendance, promote events, and generate interest in our programming.
