It's activites-which are both multi-disciplinary and broadly historical-include exhibitions; site-specific installations; Open Sessions, a curated artist program encouraging community and collaboration; the "Drawing Papers" publication series; public programs; and educational initiatives for school and community groups. It was founded in 1977 by curator Martha Beck (1938-2014). The impact on the medium that The Drawing Center has had over the past 40 years is clear. Drawing has taken its place as a central and respected art form, with institutions and galleries across the globe hosting major exhibitions that confirm its artistic importance and commercial viability. This shift in the field has allowed The Drawing Center to rethink its mission, moving away from a more defensive stance about drawing-that it is legitimate, important, and valuable-to a more expansive and positive exploration of how drawing operates in contemporary culture. This new institutional approach has been popular with general audiences and the field in general, and The Drawing Center is seeing increased annual attendance figures as well as the development of a broader base of supporters. Every year, The Drawing Center serves 20,000+ individuals both on-site and through off-site drawing workshops. As a museum that does not maintain a collection, the main focus of The Drawing Centers programmatic activity is temporary exhibitions and longer-term site-specific installations. The museum mounts 1012 exhibitions or installations annually across its three gallery spaces Main Gallery; Drawing Room; the Lab and two installation sites-the Lab Corridor and Stairwell. Often, these exhibitions travel onto different national and international venues, with 14 exhibitions traveling to more than 25 museums since 2007 alone. The Drawing Center presents around 40 public programs every year. These include gallery talks and walkthroughs; lectures; readings; performances; and film screenings that provide new insights into the work on view in exhibitions or to the medium of drawing more generally. For additional entry points, The Drawing Center produces a catalogue or publication around each of its exhibitions; there are noe 125+ books in the "Drawing Papers" series, which have impacted millions online and through wide distribution to bookstores. Launched in January 2014, Open Sessions gathers 30-40 contemporary artists for a two-year collaborative program to develop radical and unique approaches to drawing. Open Sessions invites selected artists to consider drawing's current and potential roles in their artistic practice and empowers them to find new approaches for contextualizing and presenting their work through exhibitions, public programs, professional mentorship, and peer review. The Drawing Center serves 5,000+ individuals annually through its Michael Iovenko School Programs and programming in collaboration with diverse community-based organizations. Serving students and community members from across the five boroughs of NYC, single-session Draw and Reflect Art Workshops consist of a guided tour and an art-making workshop in the galleries. Drawing Connections is a partnership with four local schools to provide an in-depth arts-in-education experience for 100 students; this multi-part program is comprised of a single gallery visit and six in-school sessions. The Drawing Center also offers drawing workshops for artists of all ages on Saturday mornings; off-site public drawing workshops in collaboration with the non-profit organization Street Lab; guided tours for adult and university groups; a robust internship program. 1268846 true true false false false false false true false true true false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false false false true false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false false true 14 0 29 true false false false false false true true false false false false false false false X 18 18 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false NY X X LAURA HOPTMAN 2122192166 35 WOOSTER STREET NEW YORK NY 10013 FRANCES BEATTY ADLER BOARD MEMBER 5.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ERIC RUDIN BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 JANE DRESNER SADAKA BOARD MEMBER & CO-CHAIR 10.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 DITA AMORY BOARD MEMBER & SECRETARY 1.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 STEVEN HOLL BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ANITA CONTINI BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 Andrea Crane BOARD MEMBER 5.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 IRIS MARDEN BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 GALIA STAWSKI BOARD MEMBER 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BARBARA TOLL BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ISABEL WILCOX BOARD MEMBER 10.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 CANDACE WORTH BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BRAD CLOEPFIL BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 RHIANNON KUBICKA BOARD MEMBER & CO-CHAIR 3.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 NANCY POSES BOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 David Salle boARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 JOYCE SIEGEL bOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 WAQAS WAJAHAT bOARD MEMBER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 AMY GOLD BOARD MEMBER 4.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 STACEY GOERGEN BOARD MEMBER & TREASURER 1.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BRETT LITTMAN EXECUTIVE DIR-LEFT 4/30/18 40.0 0.0 X 169301 0 10076 169301 0 10076 1 false true false 0 995717 51250 999771 35649 2046738 PUBLICATION SALES 511190 24037 24037 MISCELLANEOUS REVENUE 900099 1246 1246 EXHIBITION REVENUE 900099 14310 14310 ADMISSION FEES 900099 49870 49870 89463 20807 20807 0 0 0 0 0 160223 143020 17203 17203 17203 147063 995717 147063 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2174211 89463 38010 0 0 0 0 172960 77832 34592 60536 0 797537 526293 117057 154187 0 47188 30552 9082 7554 67698 42918 8403 16377 0 0 84762 84762 0 0 4665 4665 193130 70827 119855 2448 11859 10214 1571 74 73188 43349 14701 15138 0 0 105002 72687 24213 8102 19559 11382 8177 0 0 90773 90773 0 301499 188226 46974 66299 36526 27456 7896 1174 REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE 141434 97908 32614 10912 SHIPPING AND COURIERS 28814 28664 150 PRODUCTION EXPENSE 38666 38666 INDIRECT BENEFIT EXP 22399 22399 50317 1872 47885 560 2287976 1268846 653220 365910 19169 36425 36 36 173561 219337 5462 12482 0 0 0 0 0 0 50680 50910 7809 33876 12523886 2792618 10032767 9731268 0 0 538781 456361 0 0 0 0 125 0 10828390 10540695 138627 134295 0 0 675 0 0 0 0 0 205000 125000 1835529 1746384 0 0 26189 27159 2206020 2032838 X 7904135 7707647 220332 377307 497903 422903 8622370 8507857 10828390 10540695 -113765 -748 X X false true X true false X 1963579 1816608 1870018 1845994 2046738 9542937 0 0 1963579 1816608 1870018 1845994 2046738 9542937 1518280 8024657 24258 37197 22264 20672 20807 125198 0 1246 1246 9669381 0.82990 0.87150 X X X BENEFIT EVENT AUCTION true 497903 75000 422903 497903 497903 634778 136875 497903 634778 634778 634778 634778 1.00000 false false 0 180000 180000 0 11833951 2429475 9404476 0 372476 235479 136997 0 137459 127664 9795 9731268 0 VACATION ACCRUAL 27159 27159 2182383 -748 13585 12837 2169546 4665 4665 2174211 2296896 13585 13585 2283311 4665 4665 2287976 PART III, LINE 1A: THE ORGANIZATION HAS ACCUMULATED CERTAIN ARTWORK THAT HAS NOT BEEN REFLECTED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SINCE THE FAIR MARKET VALUE IS NOT DETERMINABLE.
