        <ExplanationTxt>The Arts Partnership mission is to raise funds and provide operating support to The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, The Minnesota Opera, The Schubert Club and Ordway Center for the Performing Arts (collectively "Supported Organizations") for these organizations' use of the Ordway facility. The annual support is dependent upon funds available and is distributed to each organization based on their respective use of the Ordway facility. ($1,668,326 this tax year and included in this Form 990.) Also, all Supported Organizations jointly work together on executing programs that are subsidized by the Arts Partnership. These programs are reviewed by the Arts Partnership Board during the budget process to ensure the programs meet the objective of continuing a strong partnership for the Supported Organizations. ($42,842 this tax year and included in this Form 990.) Additionally, the Arts Partnership receives funds to provide rent subsidy to community organizations for their use of Ordway Center for the Performing Arts Concert Hall. Grants are awarded based on applicant meeting granting criteria as long as funds are available. The Arts Partnership grants these funds to the Ordway to apply to the renter's invoice. ($27,236 this tax year and included in this Form 990.)</ExplanationTxt>
