Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

This program will provide an opportunity for people in our rural community to see a musical performance that they may not have access to otherwise. It will also be education so attendees will learn about music history in addition to hearing the music performed. Participant evaluations will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Those in attendance clearly enjoyed the concert and meeting the performers following the program. Attendees who are also musicians gained valuable information for their own guitar playing and everyone appreciated hearing the beautiful musical performance.
