Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Dreamery's 2016 season includes more dance and voice events than ever before. We will be documenting attendance at performances and participation in conversations and workshops. The desired outcome is attendance comparable to other events. Written surveys, post-event discussions, video documentation during feedback sessions, observation, and data collection.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We offered more dance events than usual. The goal was that audience attendance would be comparable to other events. That goal was met. Surveys showed great appreciation.
