Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The program will provide an opportunity for people in the rural community to see a musical performance that they may not have had access to otherwise. It is also educational in format so attendees will learn about music history in addition to hearing the music performed. Anecdotal responses will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Minneapolis Guitar Quartet's mission is to create and perform music to inspire and propel people and our audience was very attentive and thought it so great to have this type of music here in Minneota. The program appealed to the entire audience and though the weather was not good we had a nice turnout anyway.
