Ten professional artists will tour to three greater Minnesota communities, in each offering a week of inclusive workshops and performances. Performance attendance and workshop participation will be tracked, and further evaluation will include audience surveys (print and electronic), presenter feedback, and post-performance dialogues. 2: Three greater Minnesota communities will have the opportunity to see a performance of a new music work and participate in a residency they otherwise would not. Aby Wolf will consult with presenters to mitigate previously identified barriers to participation. The success of these activities will be assessed through attendance and responses in each community.
