Governance Explanations

Form 990, Part VI, Line 4: Description of Significant Changes to Organizational Documents

“Amended bylaws.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 11B: Form 990 Review Process

“The Executive Director and Board Treasurer prepare materials for the Form 990. It is first presented to the Dancing Grounds Board Executive Committee (President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer), and then presented to the full board at its quarterly meeting in April.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12C: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts

“As outlined in the organization's bylaws, there will be no undisclosed self-dealing or business by Directors with the corporation. Directors will annually disclose their involvement with the corporation, with other organizations, with vendors, or any associations that might be or might reasonably be seen as being a conflict. When the Board is to decide on an issue about which a Director has an unavoidable conflict of interest, that Director shall absent her/himself without comment from both the deliberation and the vote. Directors will not use their position to obtain employment by the Corporation for themselves, family members, or close associates. Should a Director apply for employment, he or she must first resign from the Board. Directors shall resign if a material conflict exists. In the case of doubt of materiality, the Executive Committee will review the pertinent information to determine if a resignation or the ceasing of the activity is appropriate.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 18: Explanation of Other Means Forms Available For Public Inspection

“Dancing Grounds makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available upon request to the public. It also has a Guidestar account where Form 990s are posted publicly.”

Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Youth Development Dancing Grounds has provided high-quality dance classes to over 1,000 youth. We began by partnering with Community Works of Louisiana, Kid smART and the New Orleans Recreation Department Commission NORDC to recruit, train and support excellent dance teachers in afterschool and summer programs. In the past year, we have launched a new Dancing Grounds residency program, providing dance instruction during the school day at Arise Academy and Akili Academy to over 350 students. We have also launched summer and Saturday programs at our home studios on St. Claude Avenue, which will grow to serve more than 150 students in 2016.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Performance Dancing Grounds has become a driving force for artistic innovation and dance audience development in Orleans Parish. With support from the Arts Council of New Orleans and the Mayors Office, we produced the first Dance for Social Change Festival, a series of site-specific, Contemporary dance performances that inspired dialogue and action about the key issues confronting our city. Dancing Grounds recently launched New Orleans first Artist-in-Residence program dedicated exclusively to support local choreographers. We provide two dance artists Maritza Mercado-Narcisse and Meryl Murman with free rehearsal time and performance space to develop new work.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Amended bylaws.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1The Executive Director and Board Treasurer prepare materials for the Form 990. It is first presented to the Dancing Grounds Board Executive Committee (President, Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer), and then presented to the full board at its quarterly meeting in April.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2As outlined in the organization's bylaws, there will be no undisclosed self-dealing or business by Directors with the corporation. Directors will annually disclose their involvement with the corporation, with other organizations, with vendors, or any associations that might be or might reasonably be seen as being a conflict. When the Board is to decide on an issue about which a Director has an unavoidable conflict of interest, that Director shall absent her/himself without comment from both the deliberation and the vote. Directors will not use their position to obtain employment by the Corporation for themselves, family members, or close associates. Should a Director apply for employment, he or she must first resign from the Board. Directors shall resign if a material conflict exists. In the case of doubt of materiality, the Executive Committee will review the pertinent information to determine if a resignation or the ceasing of the activity is appropriate.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt3Dancing Grounds makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available upon request to the public. It also has a Guidestar account where Form 990s are posted publicly.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt4No documents available to the public.
