Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Part IX, Line 11G

“Artists and production personnel: program service expenses 238,141. Management and general expenses 0. Fundraising expenses 0. Total expenses 238,141.”

FORM 990, PART XII, LINE 1:

“The organization changed from the cash basis of accounting to the accrual basis of accounting in 2016 to be consistent with the basis of accounting used in its reviewed financial statements.”

Form 990

“Form 990 is being filed late due to the organization changing tax preparers in 2016. The tax preparer attempted to file an extension to may 15, 2017 however, the software indicated that the request was rejected.”

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The organization is exempt from income taxes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and is classified as "other than a private foundation". Therefore, no provision for income taxes is reflected in the financial statements. The organization presently discloses or recognizes income tax positions based on management's estimate of whether it is reasonably possible or probable that a liability has been incurred for unrecognized income taxes. Management has concluded that the organization has taken no uncertain tax positions that require adjustment in its financial statements. U.s. Forms 990 filed by the organization are subject to examination by taxing authorities generally for a period of three years.”
