Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We aspire to keep the folk music tradition alive and well in central Indiana. Members have opportunities to play individually, in small groups, and in the "Big Band." Our longevity is a good indication of our success.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Along with workshops, we help our members to enjoy music. Our monthly meetings, our annual festival, and several gigs provide many learning opportunities for members and the public.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
We have talented musicians who have remained involved for many years and are interested in mentoring other musicians. The structure of the organization has worked well and, hopefully, will continue to do so.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
We would particularly like to appeal to young people. We are currently considering how to do this. Outreach to schools and similar groups may be a good approach.
