Overview

Mission

Rise performing arts aspires to provide performance opportunities for all young performers in our local communities. We thrive in an atmosphere of excellence and encourage community engagement through the performing arts.

What it reported doing in 2018

Rise performing arts fields two competitive percussion ensembles, which perform across the state of Colorado, and travel to wgi championships every year. Rpa also fields two competitive winterguards. These also perform around Colorado, and the 1a guard travels to one out-of-state wgi regional as well as championships every year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 91% 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 liabilities are high compared with assets.
