IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0Fuse Theatre Ensemble produced additional theatrical programming, including late-night cabaret productions that provided emerging and unestablished artists with accessible opportunities to mount regular performances.

IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt1In 2024, Fuse Theatre Ensemble undertook a new program service by serving as the fiscal sponsor for the Oregon Origins Project. Through this sponsorship, Fuse provided administrative and financial oversight to support the project's mission-aligned activities. The fiscal sponsorship enabled the Oregon Origins Project to operate under Fuse's tax-exempt status while advancing artistic work that aligns with Fuse's commitment to promoting diverse and marginalized voices through theatre and performance.
IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt2Fuse serves the underserved, particularly the LGBTQIA+ community. We believe that theatre can be a powerful force for good in the world and can help to create community and understanding between diverse groups. We believe that there should be no more stories about us, without us and we work to bring in diverse perspectives and backgrounds. We further believe that the most important part of art is the people involved and we work to maximize the funds that go directly to artists over material expenses.
