Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Provide an exceptional and unique in-town arts experience for a diverse and well established Lanesboro audience, and also visitors who are attracted by the offerings in Lanesboro.Post concert audience reaction and conversations combined with written and verbal evaluations by Stringwood participants will serve as a guide to the effectiveness and accessibility of the project. Ticket sales will document growth and provide a tally as to the reception of the events. Discussions with venue directors and organizers as well as local shop keepers will give additional feedback.

Measurable Outcome(s)

An organized post-concert discussion provided clear and positive feedback about the concerts and the quality of the guest artist performances.
