Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

As a result of this program, young and old will be enriched through song and the storytelling about northern Minnesota history, culture, and the people. Evaluation will occur through visiting with the audience to get a feeling of the programming and their thoughts on what they learned from the program and the overall value of the artists.

Measurable Outcome(s)

The Sutter Brothers tour was a success as all locations seen an increase in audience members who thoroughly enjoyed the program and would like to see the artists again. The artists were pleasantly surprised by audience members and how the historical society guests differ from the library tour audiences, to which the artists will be looking into more tours such as this one.
