Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We hope to provide a culturally rich performing arts experience for the youth and area community members by bringing in Brule - A Native American Experience. We hope to attract new audiences through diverse art forms. Our survey will ask what audience members enjoyed or learned from the performance. The audience survey also gathers data on marketing effectiveness. We'll gain an understanding of decision-making factors and the importance of culturally rich programming. Demographic questions will collect data on first time attendees, geographic region represented and optional question related to generations served, plus general feedback and future programming ideas. Our success will be measured by a dashboard that tracks initial targeted metrics along with the results gathered via surveys, sales reports and audience member conversations.
