Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The expected outcome is the production of two major events with attendance greater than 600 in December and greater than 400 at the spring concert. Combined revenue is budgeted at $2500. We also expect to involve at least 75 performers. The performers will be listed on programs. Audience will be counted by ushers at the December event and by ticket sales (seats and revenue) at the Sheldon event. We will measure revenue and expenses from both events against our budget.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Concert revenue was 97% of budgeted amount. Donations resulted in combined revenue (not including Southeast Minnesota Arts Council grant) exceeding budget by 6%. Audience numbers for Christmas as expected; Spring audience, 28% under projections.
