MissionHogfish is a regenerative arts production company and artist residency at the historic Beckett Castle, surrounded by an internationally recognized rose garden on the coast of Maine. (Continued on Schedule O)We are building an artistic sanctuary and body of work dedicated to restoring creative and physical health to individuals, our communities, and our earth. Hogfish believes that applying the principles of regenerative agriculture to the arts provides a unique opportunity to holistically restore every layer of the human experience. We are on a quest to build an artistic sanctuary and body of work to restore a healthier dynamic balance between our planet, the stories we tell, and the way we live.MissionDesc

DescHogfish Maine's work consists of two core programs that are intrinsically connected: Regenerative Arts Residencies and Regenerative Works.Regenerative Arts Residencies: We are creating a holistic retreat for performing artists to connect with themselves, their community, and the land to regenerate their creative fire and change the world. We seek to empower and commission the next generation of diverse artistic voices across disciplines to tell stories that regenerate creative and physical health to their bodies, their communities, and their planet. (Continued on Schedule O)The residency makes ample time for artists to connect to their own creative fire as well as the beautiful landscape of Maine. Each week will offer time for individual artists to work on their own projects in addition to group rehearsal, scenic walks in the glory of Maine nature in summer, time in the Beckett Castle rose garden and by the ocean, as well as company class in regenerative arts techniques including mindfulness, ecology, Alexander Technique, and more.Regenerative Works: Like our namesake Hogfish, we seek to balance forms of performance - creating both whole group and individual regenerative works. Artists-in-residence are cast to fulfill the needs of and devise together the summer's flagship production. Artists are also asked to bring a personal regenerative project that they will work on during their residency. Every effort will be made to pair artists-in-residence together for whom it would be mutually beneficial to work on each other's projects. These personal projects will be presented on our Farm to Stage series across Southern Maine with a chance for audience talk backs to help further develop your work.Desc

ExplanationOne of Hogfish Maine's core charitable programs is the Organization's Artist Residencies initiative. Each summer Hogfish invites roughly 20 artists-in-residence for a six week residency from June-July in Southern Maine. Artists-in-residence are cast to fulfill the needs of and devise together the summer's flagship production. Artists are also asked to bring a personal regenerative project that they will work on during their residency. Every effort will be made to pair artists-in-residence together for whom it would be mutually beneficial to work on each other's projects. These personal projects will be presented on our Farm to Stage series across Southern Maine with a chance for audience talk backs to help further develop your work. The residency makes ample time for artists to connect to their own creative fire as well as the beautiful landscape of Maine. Each week will offer time for individual artists to work on their own projects in addition to group rehearsal, scenic walks in the glory of Maine nature in summer, time in the Beckett Castle rose garden and by the ocean, as well as company class in regenerative arts techniques including mindfulness, ecology, Alexander Technique, and more. As such a significant part of the Organization's exempt purpose, Artist Residencies are closely monitored and accounted for by the Organization. Artist projects are tracked and recorded, and Hogfish Maine requires artists interested in the program to apply for residency and support. Hogfish Maine will only support those artists whose product furthers the Organization exempt, charitable mission, though within those limits the Organization actively seeks a diverse team of all ethnic backgrounds, ages, body types, neuro and physical abilities, disciplines and styles, as well as gender & sexuality expressions. Artists interested in applying to the Residency Program may do so online at: https://www.hogfish.org/applyExplanationTxt

Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 2Edwin Cahill and Matthew Cahill have a family relationship.
Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8bThe organization does not have any committees.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11bThe Organization engages an independent, third-party public accounting firm to prepare and review a draft of the Form 990 on behalf of the Organization. The accounting firm coordinates with the Organization's President to ensure the return is complete and accurate prior to filing with the IRS, and the Form 990 will only be submitted to the IRS upon approval of the Organization's Board President. The complete Board of Directors may only consider the Public Disclosure Copy of the Form 990 prior to the tax return's filing with the IRS, or the Board may review the Form 990 that was filed pursuant to the President's approval only after its final submission with the IRS. Accordingly, this Form 990, Part VI, Line 11b has been answered "no."
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12cDirectors will disclose annually to the Board all conflicts of interest and possible conflicts of interest between themselves and any persons who conduct business with or through the Organization, either directly or indirectly, and whether or not employed by the Organization. Any Director having a duality of interest or possible conflict of interest on any matter that is or should be brought before the Board will disclose the possible conflict of interest to the Board, will leave the meeting during any discussions concerning the matter, will not vote, and will not otherwise seek to influence Board action on the matter. A Director who leaves a meeting for such reason will be counted in determining the quorum for the meeting. The remaining Directors will decide, after disclosure, whether a conflict of interest exists. The Board will adopt a written conflict of interest policy that includes guidelines for the resolution of any existing or apparent conflict of interest. At all times, Directors should avoid even the appearance of conflict.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The Organization's bylaws stipulate that no part of the net earnings of the corporation shall inure to the benefit of, or be distributable to its Directors, Officers, or other private persons, except that the corporation shall be authorized and empowered to pay reasonable compensation for services rendered and to make payments and distributions in furtherance of the Organization's charitable purposes. For the period covered by this Form 990, the Organization did not compensate any officer or director via payment of wages, salary, or non-employee taxable compensation. However, in return for services rendered on behalf of the Organization, the Organization did provide for health and insurance coverage for certain officers. Such benefits were offered only upon resolution and approval of the Board of Directors, who deemed such benefits to be reasonable in consideration of services performed on behalf of the Organization, and to be at rates deemed appropriate relative to the marketplace and available options.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19Hogfish Maine makes its governing documents and financial statements available upon request.
