| Desc | Programming continued to be presented in-person in FY 22-23 after being presented exclusively online in 2020 and 2021. FY22-23 attendance was brisk, meeting or exceeding attendance in the previous year. One major change in FY22-23 was that the festival morphed from being mostly paid admission to mostly free admission; only our two evening headline events (both sold out at 500 each seats) were by paid admission with the remaining 100 or so programs presented free to the public. We made this change to remove any financial barrier to public participation in an effort to expand the diversity of our audience. Most programs were either at capacity or mostly full. | Desc |

| Form 990, Part III, Line 3 | The festival was again presented in-person for FY22-23, after being presented exclusively online in 2021 and 2022 due to COVID. One major change in FY22-23 was that the festival morphed from being mostly paid admission to mostly free admission; only our two evening headline events were by paid admission (with both selling out at maximum capacity of 500 seats each) with the remaining 100 or so programs presented free to the public. We made this change to remove any financial barrier to public participation in an effort to expand the diversity of our audience. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b | The Form 990 was reviewed by the Founder/Executive Director Cherilyn Parsons, Board Treasurer George Rehm, and Board President Brooke Warner, and signed off on by Board President Brooke Warner. Once signed and filed, the completed Form 990 is retained in the official archives for the Board and organization. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c | The Founder/Executive Director and Board President monitor activity. Any potential conflicts of interest are discussed with Board members individually and/or as part of official meetings of the Board. No such conflicts have been observed in FY 2022-23 or any fiscal year since the organizations inception. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15a | The Board, meeting in executive session, carefully reviewed the information turned up in our examination of comparable compensation at similar organizations and set a middle course between the highest and lowest levels of comparable compensation |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 | Available upon request. |
