This event was successful thanks to our collaborations with our County wide partners: San Diego Dance Connect and The San Diego Dance Network. We instituted a targeted approach using the City Heights Business Association directory to invite local business owners to attend our event, sponsor and cross-promote. We promoted over a six week lead up campaign to our 5,219 email contacts from our previous events. We promoted and maintained consistent updates about our event on all 3 of our FACEBOOK pages with 7,432 followers, our 2 instagram pages with 960 followers and our twitter page with 707 followers. We sent Press Releases to local and regional press on our list we maintain and populated their Free Event Listings portals with our event information up to one month in advance. The City Heights Business Association has already booked us for two more version's of this event at the same POPUP15 on February 23rd and June 15th, 2019. What makes the •PGK DANCES in Gar1sbad• project distinctive? This event is a distinctive audience oriented dance exposure experience. Our event begins from 1130am to 1 pm with our signature "One MovemenUOne Community" Dance Workshop on the Schulman Auditorium's stage and team taught by our dancer/teachers. Our Workshops are for EVERYONE: No Experience Necessary, All fitness levels welcomed for this great opportunity to feel the expressive value and benefits of DANCE. We have confirmed Schulman Auditorium's stage will accommodate up to 20 people. 1-130pm Healthy snacks and beverages are served compliments of our Healthy Food Partner -BeFresh/Fresheria. 130-2pm Founding PGK DANCE Director Peter Kalivas talks about what makes our 24 year old Company unique and the opportunities we create collaborating with local artists and our mission to make professional dance more easily available and affordable to all. 2-3pm our 7 member multi-ethnic company performs a variety of works created by different choreographers that highlights the diverse dance and music styles we are known for including: Contemporary Ballet, Contemporary/Modern, Jazz, Afro-Caribbean, Street Dance fusions and Body Percussion with new age classical to pop to Samba to indie style music. Our music will be on tracks and some performed "live" featuring different guest musicians each event by: Westwind Brass Ensemble, percussionist Jose' Monterrossa and award winning pop/soul vocalist Peter G. Kalivas. 3-4pm PGK DANCE will host a Question & Answer session with the Artists and the Audience which melds into a Meet & Greet What are the goals {outputs and/or outcomes) of the project? How will you measure your goals? including more healthy snacks and drinks, light music while PGK DANCE Shirts & Bags are given away. The City of Carlsbad recently created a Community Vision which includes promoting and highlighting its arts and cultural resources like the Schulman Auditorium which is already known locally for world class quality diverse programming. Our goal is to add to Carlsbad's offerings and access to world class arts and healthy lifestyles which we are fully promoting throughout our program. Carlsbad's vision also includes bolstering the local economy, business diversity and tourism. Our goal is to produce four events over the course of 2019 that would attract people who will not only engage in the cultural tourism aspect we are expanding upon in Carlsbad, but before and after our event our guests would engage further with Carlsbad's other businesses, shops and restaurants we cross- promote with in walking, biking, easy distance from the Dove Library. An objective is to partner and collaborate with local businesses, shops and restaurants to cross-promote our event and highlight our local partners, possibly through added value incentives to our audiences attending our event such as: Discounts on meals and participating restaurants and businesses when they present the program from our event at the Dove Library. Documenting attendance, social media interest and both on site and post event surveys has been our best, most accurate measure to conclude if our programming has been effective in achieving our outcomes. Public interest as stated on our surveys for us to bring more programming as well as measuring the number of discounts redeemed by our audiences through our partners is measurable. Who is your target population and why? How will you reach them? Our Free to the public events generally target the portions of the public that are concerned about the cost of Arts & Culture, Arts & Entertainment. Hosting these types of events in libraries and other open and easily accessible to the public spaces fits our goal to serve this portion of the community extremely well. It is our mission to insure that equal, easy, affordable access to the arts happens. Therefore, this collaboration with The Carlsbad Library to directly engage with the local and regional community they serve will be excellent in attracting our target audience. Listing our programming on the Library calendar, posting flyers in the library and our program business partners as well as at the Carlsbad Premium Outlets will be vital. Also, local community bulletin boards such as: The Carlsbad Bulletin Board, the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce, news outlets such as The Carlsbad Patch and FOXS TV who covers Carlsbad events and news regularly. We will particularly reach out to the YMCA (Magdalena Ecke Family) in nearby Encinitas, the 2 Boys & Girls Clubs in Carlsbad as well as the local dance studios including our community partners Carlsbad Dance Center and Carlsbad Performing Arts Academy. Also, nearby MiraCosta College in Oceanside where two of our dancers trained and Oceanside High School where one of our dancers is an alumni.
