Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Artist surveys showed that 80% of participating artists gained increased understanding about how music and climate change intersect and / or interrelate. Artist surveys confirmed that 90% of participating artists would describe the MN Music Summit as an inclusive, welcoming experience for them as a musician. The MMC uses an inclusive Community Engagement process to design the Minnesota Music Summit and will evaluate the festival accordingly (in addition to tracking attendance metrics for all performances, workshops, and networking events). Artist, partner, audience, and attendee interviews and surveys will determine the impact of all co-created aspects of each event and be used to improve future programs and identify future program topics.

Measurable Outcome(s)

147 people officially registered for the Summit, it was streamed to Youtube and Facebook where it reached 5,560 people, with 1,180 engagements, 2,100 views, and 17 shares. Because of a COVID-19 related pivot to the programming, no climate change content was part of the program, instead focusing on business skills. The Summit was inclusive in it's broad online reach and free participation.
