Overview
Mission
The organization's mission is to improve the quality of life for residents of and visitors to Napa County through the creation of art districts.
What it reported doing in 2024
Artwork Installations and Maintenance: Includes the Quake Mosaic installation. The Napa County Quake Mosaic is an artist-led, community-built public art project made from household objects salvaged after the 2014 earthquake and the 2017 & 2020 wildfires in Napa. The artwork is made of 406 sections that were fabricated by more than 2000 members of the Napa County community. The Rail Arts District funded and managed the installation of the mosaic onto the side of a train car. The car is installed in the district, but RAD Napa is currently working with the City of Napa to install it permanently in the RAD.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent revenue detail to tell how this nonprofit funds its work.
- 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.
