Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Increase our audience to 1,150 between the two concerts (a 20% increase from 2013); expose 150 children and youth (18 and younger) to a live symphony performance.1. Audience figures will be collected and evaluated by headcount at each performance. An electronic survey at the close of the season will also include information regarding age group (children/youth/specific), where they traveled from, and prior exposure to live classical music performances. 2. Financial outcomes for sponsorship will be tracked on an ongoing basis through our strategic fundraising/development plan. Free-will donations will be counted immediately following performances.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Successful chamber music festival with an estimated 25% increase in participation over previous year. Vast Majority of participants indicating a positive experience.
