Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Expand audience by developing concert presentation programs for young adults (Mix and Theori) and daytime programs for retired (Ordway daytime). We will track attendance, new ticket-buyers to our box office system and through post-concert online surveys. We will assess success, demographics and attitudes to the music heard at the performances. 2: Engage diverse communities by adding music programs for youth in Twin Cities community centers (KidsJam) and families with autism (Azure). We will track number of participating community centers and demographic information of participating youth for KidsJam and Azure. We will review programs with partner organizations.

Measurable Outcome(s)

New younger audience members attended informal Schubert Club Mix concert, and attendance of retired people increased at daytime concerts. Tracked attendance of new audience members by ticket sales and observation at concerts, and Theoroi members used social media to discuss performances. 2: Twenty KidsJam workshops reached primarily diverse youth at five area community centers, and seventy-five people touched by autism attended Azure concerts. In partnership with the community centers, youth participants engaged in KidsJam provided feedback from their experiences. Families attending Azure concerts expressed gratitude for interactive concerts that embrace their children affected by autism.
