KMSU will create awareness of these events by broadcasting preview interviews and various promotional awareness messages in the week leading up to each event. In some cases, music by the performing artists will be broadcast to increase event awareness. Select performances will be recorded and broadcast as a highlight show on KMSU. Longer form recordings of select events will be broadcast on The Minnesota Music Channel (KMSU-HD2).
These events will result in increased exposure to professional performing arts, and the work of professional artists
More Minnesotans of all ages, ethnicities, and incomes will have access to Minnesota art and music
