Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Attract new and diverse audiences to experience professional classical artists in new, creative ways. New and diverse audiences will attend because of alternative, relaxed presentation styles, making classical musical artists accessible to those who would not otherwise attend formal concerts. 2: The Schubert Club will provide more diverse opportunities for Minnesota-based musicians to perform, teach and share the love of music with audiences of all ages. Feature Minnesota composers and performers in performances and educational experiences with hands-on experiences for our audiences. We will explore artistic partnerships with new, diverse cultural communities throughout the area.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The Schubert Club attracted a new audience of over 50%, and the youngest to date at Schubert Club Mix concerts. Comparing the Schubert Club Mix participants to past ticket buyers in all series, the results were over 50% of participants never having been to a concert in the past. The casual format attracts people not comfortable in a formal concert setting. 2: The Schubert Club provided 246 Minnesota musicians the opportunity to share their talent with audiences and youth in our community. Minnesota artists were vetted from diverse backgrounds to provide educational sessions and performances for The Schubert Club. Outcomes included increased attendance at KidsJam workshops, and full capacity at weekly Courtroom Concerts.
