Overview
Mission
This Corporation is organized to promote the creative and professional development of artists, teachers, and students working in choreography, dance, music, theater, and other visual and performing arts. It also seeks to enhance access to arts education by supporting programs in local schools and communities.
What it reported doing in 2025
The Choreographic Development work is rooted in fostering the creative and professional development of emerging choreographers who wouldn't normally have the opportunities to showcase or see their work fully produced. These opportunities include an annual choreographers showcase series and quarterly choreographic workshops.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 76% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- 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 - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and expenses are high relative to revenue.
