Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

525 participants experience new-all-ages-and-abilities community participatory dance, music and story theater performance work at multiple Twin Cities metro sites. 80% of participants will self-report significant benefits experienced during the Intergenerational Dance Hallâ„¢ events including mood improvement, social connection, feelings of recognition and importance, and increase in movement. Outcome one is evaluated through participant demographics, which are tracked in our Kairos Alive! Teaching Artist Reflections. Outcome two is evaluated through data gathered from our participant Dance Hall surveys.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Total attendance at all 8 project sites: 703 adult attendees, 72 children attendees, plus 18 artists participating. Post event audience surveys show that as a result of participating 75% of respondents said their mood had improved, 68% said they felt recognized and important, 71% said they had been able to connect with others, and 66% said they had moved in new ways or more than usual.
