Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
The quality and type of arts opportunities in northwest Minnesota increases through creating a learning and viewing environment about Korean Folk Dance for students and the community. Evaluation will occur through a participant questionnaire, an audience questionnaire, and an artist questionnaire; as well as attendance numbers, and visual evaluation by committee members.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Our questionnaire results documented that people were very satisfied and would attend again. We measured how people heard about the activity and they heard through the University of Minnesota-Crookston and by word of mouth. Attendance was as projected.
