Overview

Mission

Educational theater and fine arts for youth

What it reported doing in 2025

Summer camp with enrollment of 65 students ages 12-18 which included 6 need based scholarship students. The program included workshops with resulting performances as well as rehearsal and performance of a full length musical.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 65% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Cannot be determined from the filing. The filing does not provide enough consistent spending detail to tell whether the nonprofit works directly or through others.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
