Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The measurable outcomes we hope to achieve are measured quantitatively by polling the number of people who attend the events and what artists bring them. We will also measure qualitatively by surveying individuals who attend events to understand their experience with the program. Outcomes will be evaluated by surveying of audience members, counting the number of attendees, counting the number of artists served, and surveying the artists who participate.

Measurable Outcome(s)

545 young artists performed for 3102 people at the 24 YAE events. 150 young artists attended free monthly Performer Meetings and participated in one-on-one mentoring sessions. $10,033 was paid to young and mid-level professional artists who participated in YAE events. 90% of participants enjoyed the program, would book another show, and would recommend THE GARAGE to others.
