Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The intended outcome of the event pass program is to allow the patrons to experience different genres of art, music , and theater programs and to attend different theater productions in locations they may not have been able to attend. A survey was distributed to receive feedback from those attending the program.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Surveys were distributed to participants at all programs. 90% strongly agreed that this was an enjoyable experience and 85% strongly agreed that they would attend a similar event. Comments: The music of Simon and Garfunkel brought back wonderful memories. Our family really enjoyed this concert. We could never afford to attend this without Legacy tickets.

Source of Additional Funds

9 libraries provided space, staff, and additional promotion for the programs and approximately 4 regional newspapers provided marketing through press releases, photos and interviews with artists and performers.
