Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
1. Provide access to participation in the arts for more Minnesotans and 2. Raise the quality, types and number of arts opportunities in our area. We offer area musicians and music lovers opportunities for quality, orchestral music locally. We use anecdotal data collected by board and orchestra members, surveys at performances, and data on attendance and revenues at all events.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Our measurable outcome is that with the help of the co-managers, the orchestra manages to function well; without them, it's believed the organization could not even exist.
