Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
Our goal is to present an evening performance of Gaelic music and dance - an ethnic celebration that has never been offered at the Edge Center in the past. Outcomes will be measured by ticket sales and audience surveys.Ticket sales will be recorded and audience members will be directly asked by board members after the show as to how well received the performance was.
Measurable Outcome(s)
Increase audience with diversity of high artistic quality presentations.
