Overview

Mission

To educate, promote and create performing arts.

What it reported doing in 2024

The company sustained multiple tiers of programming advancing contemporary dance in Western North Carolinathrough community classes, new choreography, and paid professional performance opportunities, totaling over 230 hours of classes, 75 minutes of new work, and 4 weeks of dancer employment.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
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. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
