Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Pt III, Line 2

“ArtsAVL launched a new microsite which includes an arts directory, events and opportunities pages. The goal is to connect residents and visitors to arts businesses and professionals throughout our community.

Pt VI, Line 18

Pt VI, Line 19

“Governing documents and reviewed financial statements are available upon request.”

Financial Statement Notes

Pt X, Line 2

“The Council is generally exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the organizations tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had no income from unrelated business activities in the year ended June 30, 2024 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.”

Pt V, Line 4

“The purpose of the endowment is to generate investment income to supplement operating funds.”

IRS990/Desc0Connection- ArtsAVL is connecting the community to creatives and creatives to each other through a new Creative Portal microsite launched in early 2023. Members receive access to a dashboard that not only provides them with resources but also allows them to create a public-facing directory profile. With a directory profile, members can provide information about their business and work and share upcoming events and opportunities. ArtsAVL is also making it easy to explore Ashevilles art scene while supporting arts businesses with the ArtsAVL Trolley program. This free service links key arts destinations in Downtown Asheville and the River Arts Districts. Data shows a marked increase in both patronage and sales on trolley days. Monthly impact surverys from businesses in the RAD and Downtown are reporting a 46% increase in sales and a 52% increase in visitors on Trolley Days than on non-trolley days.
