Mission

What it reported doing in 2025

ART26021 hosted the 10th Annual YOUNG FILMMAKERS CAMP at LASCAUX Micro-Theater in Buckhannon, WV, August 4-8, 2025. Ten students participated in the 5-day camp and created short films based on scripts developed there. Upon conclusion of the camp, a premiere was held at LASCAUX Micro-Theater where students, friends, and family were invited to see participants' completed films.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
