Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Residents build connections to their own and others' cultural heritage through events and/or activities; MN folk and traditional artists/audiences are expanded; MN folk and traditional artists see an increase in demand for work. Interviews/Conversations with participants ; Interviews/Conversations with board/staff/leaders ; Reviewing recorded information or documentation (such as finances, attendance records, work plans) ; Observation ; Surveying (paper or online)

Measurable Outcome(s)

Methods utilized for evaluation included surveys sent to our BIPOC Emerging Artists, the Emerging Artist mentors, the leadership of the involved youth choirs, and ticket holders; patron data was assessed and conversations were held with board members, volunteers, and concert attendees. We succeeded in making a small but hopefully meaningful contribution towards the diversification and inclusivity of classical musicians while connecting with new audiences and youth choir collaborators.
