Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Events with artists or live music will provide expanded creative experiences for families and kids beyond what is typically available in the community.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The three events we were able to hold before COVID cancellations were all musical events: The Roe Family Singers, The Jolly Pops, and the Teddy Bear Band. The communities of Jordan and Belle Plaine do not have a venue for live music events for families, and many families expressed gratitude to the library for hosting these events.
