Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

50 young people of the McDonough community will have the chance to tell their personal stories and experiences through the performances they will hold and the journey that will lead them there. 200 community members will witness the telling of those stories at our two performances. Enrollment and attendance of participants for all three workshops and two performances will be taken. A sign-in table will be utilized at each of the two performances to track the number of community members in attendance.

Measurable Outcome(s)

37 youth participated in the three different styles of performance arts workshops that were offered as a result of the McDonough Performance Arts Project. Youth participants had the opportunity to perform their newly learned skills for over 400 hundred people.
