Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The goal of this project is to provide live musical programs for the community with various styles of music. We also will provide an opportunity for local musicians to perform and demonstrate their skills and talent. We will count the number of the individuals at the concerts weekly. Also at the end of the year, we will have the audience complete a brief survey.
Measurable Outcome(s)
The largest measurable was the size of the audiences. We averaged 166 people for the events. We also received approximately $300 in free will donations.
