Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this project, all ages of our community will feel excited to participate in our events both the Concert Series of the lawn and the events held inside the Art Center each year. Evaluation will occur through our annual questionnaire asking about their feelings of of the event and events they would like to have us sponsor and a follow-up meeting with the planners along with counting actual audience members of each event presented by the Arts Council.

Measurable Outcome(s)

By bringing the performers to rural Minnesota venues, we are exposing more Minnesotans to quality arts experiences that might not have the means or transportation to attend these performances. Our goals is to provide high quality arts at a low cost or off
