Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
By reaching out to more community members (through expanded marketing efforts we have undertaken), we anticipate more audience members throughout the season. We will provide surveys at each event, count number of audience members, and count number of new playwrights involved throughout the year. Our goal is to increase the number of events and overall attendance.
Measurable Outcome(s)
We provided information about Winona history to the public; we provided opportunities for area artists to participate in live theater; and we added productions as appropriate to engage the community.
