IFM intends to increase the percentage of attendees that report they are satisfied or very satisfied by their art experience. IFM will conduct a survey using neutral volunteers, designed and analyzed by the U of M Tourism Bureau to assess reported experience of random audience members throughout the event weekend. 2: IFM intends to increase enrollment in Irish music, dance, and sports programs through recruitment at the event. IFM will collaborate with partner arts organizations to engage potential students. We will conduct a survey with these partners three months after the event ends.
IFM increased the percentage of attendees reporting `very satisfied` by 4.2% and reduced the number of people who reported `very dissatisfied` by 6.7%. We conducted an attendee survey designed, supervised and analyzed by the U of M Tourism Bureau using trained neutral volunteers. 2: Anecdotal evidence shared by partner organizations indicates visibility at our Fair leads to new students in Autumn enrollment. Our partner organizations indicate that visibility at the Fair is key to recruiting students. In practice, it has been difficult for many to gather this data. We are working on implementing a postcard for new students returned directly to Irish Fair.
