Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Lisa can inspire future puppeteers and ventriloquists, which is an art that needs to be continued in every generation. Lisa will also inspire reading and library usage with her incorporation of books in her program. Inspiring future magicians is also an outcome of the program. Let's inspire our future generations by exposing them to as many skills as we can. Community is also inspired by coming together to share these great opportunities offered through the library. Our summer school students will enjoy the entertainment as well as families from our community. Anecdotal responses will be collected.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The children were able to learn about music and how it helps people. They were also able to learn how to make music using everyday objects like pots and pans, bowls, sticks etc. They also learned how to follow a pattern in music.
