Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide educational and artistic experiences that rank among the highest in the nation to young singers from Central Minnesota Comparisons will be drawn with nationally-recognized programs with respect to educational curriculum, caliber of artistic offerings, number of individuals served, and breadth of cultural experiences. 2: SJBC will present a greater number of artistic and educational offerings throughout the state and promote Minnesota artists. Internal records will track the number of performances, commissions, workshops, festivals, and camps in which SJBC plays an active role, as well as the number of venues and individuals served.

Measurable Outcome(s)

SJBC provided educational and artistic experiences that rank among the highest in the nation to young singers from Central Minnesota. Invitations to prestigious conferences and events underscored SJBC's national standard and significance within the state. Audience and chorister reviews support this assessment, as do increased participation statistics. 2: SJBC presented 57% more artistic and educational offerings throughout the state and promoted Minnesota artists. Performance records were compared to records from the previous season, and indicated the sharp increase in total appearances as well as a small increase in the number of works performed by Minnesota composers.
