Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The Pipestone Performing Arts Center feels that investing in new light technology fulfills part of it's mission, which is to provide a facility that encourages the arts through education, advancement and the presentation of a wide variety of activities. Said facility has remarkable opportunity for presenters because of the technology and equipment we have invested in to ensure our presentations and activities are of high quality and merit. Not only will the PPAC and it's supporters benefit from the upgrade, so will the two performing arts non-profits that take residency in our space: the Al Opland Singers and the Calumet Players. To measure the goals of the new, upgraded light technology, we will ask our technical staff to provide us interpersonal reflection on the effectiveness of the technology. We will also reach out to our residency groups for feedback on the quality and ease of use of the light equipment.
