Impact evidence
Describes programs. Its tax return describes what it does but we have found no measurable results in it.
Programs described in its return (1)
- $52,642 spent. Audience participation shows lingering effects of the Pandemic. This year we continued our regularly scheduled programming. We created a lot of new programming to Greenport New York. A new venue in Suffolk, St. James Church Church in St James was added. Two new contracts were obtained which increased our audience. We estimate that audiences have grown post pandemic and with our new ventures. Average attendance is about one hundred for each performance. Some contracts and other venues on a donation only basis reduced our total take, even with increased audiences. The new venue in Greenport: NFAC was sold out during the XMas show.
