Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Powderhorn Porchfest surveys from across artists and attendees will reveal a broad degree of diversity across age, race, gender identity, income level, sexual orientation, and ability. Changes in attendance from last year will be determined from periodic estimates of section counts by volunteers. A series of dedicated surveys will be created and administered by the planning team for the various artists and event attendees. Insight collected from respondents will help determine if the desired goals and outcomes for the event were achieved.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The 8th Annual Powderhorn Porchfest music festival was viewed by 3,487 people across Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. In comparison to the estimated reach of connecting with 2,100 people through the orginially designed in-person event, this represents a 66% increase over this goal. Additionally, the event was able to provide a cash stipend to 27 adult performing artists and 4 production artists.
