Financial Statement Notes

Schedule D, Part X, Line 2

“H. Accounting for Uncertainly in Income Taxes: Under ASC 740, "income Taxes" (relevant portions of which were previously addressed in FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes"), an organization must recognize the tax benefit associated with tax positions taken for tax return purposes when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained. Maysles does not believe there are any material uncertain tax positions, and accordingly, they have not recognized any liability for unrecognized tax benefits. The Maysles Institute has filed IRS Form 990 tax returns, as required, and all other applicable return in jurisdictions where it is required. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, there was no interest or penalties recorded or included in the statement of activities.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0The Screening Room at the Maysles Documentary Center, the only independent film house north of Lincoln Center in Manhattan, is dedicated to the exhibition of documentary films, and it provides programming and forum discussions at least four nights out of every week. The Cinema is committed to a democratic experience, one where filmmakers are asked to attend the screenings of their work, and audiences have the opportunity to actively engage the films and each other in post-screening forums. Coupled with its scheduled series, we encourage the programming participation of local social and cultural organizations and citizen-activists to deepen community involvement and provide exposure for under-represented social issues and overlooked artists and their work. We have forged partnerships with organizations as diverse as The National Black Programming Consortium, the New Museum, and the Harlem Historic Parks Association, to name a few. Our suggested-donation ticket model allows for everyone to engage in our programming, regardless of his or her ability to pay. As a result of steady growth in attendance we have recently added capacity to accommodate our frequent overflow audiences.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Our fiscal sponsorship program, which extends our 501(c)(3) non-profit status to filmmakers for fundraising purposes, has been a growing success. The program is designed for emerging and early career filmmakers, and priority is given to individuals who have traditionally been denied industry access and fundraising opportunities.
