Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

We have been successful in providing a full schedule of quality arts experiences for our community and are seeking to reach larger and diversified audiences. By offering free access to events, we reach participants who may otherwise be unable to attend.We closely track our attendance and revenues based on event type through evaluation forms and surveys. We compare the number and variety of events by year. We also track our volunteer hours, diversity of attendees, and increase in membership.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We sought to offer a full schedule of various arts experiences for our community. We had 67 events at the State Theatre with total attendance of 8701.
