Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Outcomes for this project include: 1) participants will believe they have reached a stronger sense of agency in themselves; 2) participants will have made new, meaningful connections with fellow participants and teaching artists; 3) participants will have grown as musicians, in terms of how well they play and what they learned across musical genres. These outcomes will be measured using satisfaction scores through a year-end survey, as well as interim and year-end conversations with program staff. The program will be evaluated using outcomes-focused year-end survey and a series of conversations. We will also have multiple points for participants to demonstrate their work through performance and recording sessions, which will help us measure the growth of the participants.
