Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

My project will provide access to participation in the arts as the capstone event will held free of charge in a venue that is handicapped accessible. It will also help build new relationships with our regions Chinese community. Data collection on attendance and press coverage will be tabulated. The capstone event will be recorded on both audio and video. Surveys will be provided to audience members asking for comments, how they heard about it, and where they live.

Measurable Outcome(s)

195 Minnesotans were able to hear and witness something that has never been done before - a virtuosic multimedia work for the Chinese traditional lutes the pipa & zhongruan.
