It is an annual 2 day celebration of the arts held along The Woodlands Waterway and Town Green Park in the spring. It has attendance of over 14,000 patrons and features approximately 210 international, national and regional artists and fine craftsmen that are selected by a jury and sell their work. We also have musical performances on 2 stages with Grammy winning and local musicians, 1 stage with culinary art demonstrations and 1 stage with community performing artists with many ethnic musicians and dancers. There is an area called Artopoly that represents our student scholarship winners work and an opportunity to buy student work for $5 to facilitate the beginning of art appreciation and a community art project. There are hands on children art activities. Our revenue is derived from artist applications, booth rentals, admission revenues and our kick-off party called the Art Dash. Children 12 and under are admitted free. We also have a market where we sell customized items such as t-shirts and caps. We have approximately 500 volunteers that help with the festival. Our expenses include labor to manage and staff the event, set up the gates, tables, chairs, stages, tents, electric, and signage. We have advertising, operations, performing arts, graphic arts, and printing expenses amongst others. 144369 BAM-Because Art Matters is how we give back to the community what we've made with the festival or raised through donations. We have approximately eight Title 1, economically disadvantaged schools that we provide financial stipends to so that they may purchase art supplies for their classrooms. We also bring art to the students with field trips to the Houston Grand Opera, Ballet, Fincher Art Museum, and/or Children's Museum. We serve over 31,000 At-Risk students. We hire Percussionist Dan the Drummer, or bring a master artist or teacher to those with special needs and circumstances such as seniors, the disabled, juveniles in detention centers, battered women, and children in the Children's Hospital. We award $21,000 to 18 students in 6 categories of art and $4,000 to two teachers, annually. We also support the Woodlands High School Art Trust with an award of $1,500 annually. We maintain the Spotlight art gallery in The Woodlands Mall. 300 90000 We have underwriters that pay $15,000 to support an art bench that is installed along The Woodlands Waterway. We currently have 14 benches installed with 6 that will be installed as part of Phase 3 in 2018, which were associated with 2017 revenue. Our expenses include costs to recruit and select 3 artists for each bench. They are given a stipend of $300 each and $8000 is given to the artist that is selected to build the bench. The Woodlands Township pays for the installation and we convey ownership to them. These beautiful benches enhance the waterway and offer a place to stop and reflect on the beauty of the area. 568580 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true true false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false false false false false false false true 28 0 true 5 true false false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 18 17 false false false false true false false true true false false true true true true true true false false false X Better Bookkeepers 8322996712 25277 Grogans Mill Ste 220 The Woodlands TX 77380 X Amy Lecocq Director 20.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Feuerstein Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elissa Fletcher Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sue Burke Harrington Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Maria Alexander Holmes Vice President 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Robert Horton Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Kim Lacayo Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jerry MacDonald Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Amos McDonald Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ann Snyder Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Deb Spiess President 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Theresa Terrell Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Vreeland-Wendt Secretary 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mary Anne Whitney Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Nick Wolda Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Heather Dickens Treasurer 20.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Alex Bunch Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Dragos Tapu Director 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 0 false false false 0 19139 301570 320709 Art Dash 711300 40200 40200 Development 711300 9505 9505 Woodlands Art Festival 711300 437429 437429 487134 1414 1414 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 809257 487134 1414 X 14200 14200 26500 26500 0 0 0 0 64534 64534 0 0 4937 4937 203136 65466 48900 88770 0 26150 1800 24350 0 0 0 0 124741 57965 59170 7606 3272 3272 0 0 7614 7614 0 0 0 0 0 2496 2496 6922 6922 Festival Operations 138226 138226 Outreach Programming 53457 53457 Performing Arts 39093 39093 Art Dash Party 34254 34254 105494 68148 19023 18323 855026 568580 169251 117195 290230 328795 154586 0 0 55047 116439 0 0 0 0 495 772 7803 4058 6242 3745 0 0 0 0 0 506600 449751 62572 72992 21500 84072 72992 X 422528 376759 422528 376759 506600 449751 -45769 X false false false X 173118 236632 268755 243851 321422 1243778 440497 518785 452908 522856 486422 2421468 0 0 0 613615 755417 721663 766707 807844 3665246 0 0 3665246 404 760 537 327 1414 3442 0 404 760 537 327 1414 3442 0 0 614019 756177 722200 767034 809258 3668688 0.99910 0.99930 0.00090 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 7803 4058 3745 3745 false Center for the Performing Art 2005 Lake Robbins Dr The Woodlands TX 77380 760276606 3 7700 0 Woodlands Childrens Museum 4775 W Panther Creek Drive The Woodlands TX 77381 760678400 3 6500 0 2 0 BAM: Awards/Scholarship 1 1500 BAM: Awards/Scholarship 18 21000 BAM: Awards/Scholarship 2 4000 Additional Supplemental Information Procedures for monitoring the use of the Grant Funds Scholarships are awarded to high school juniors and seniors based on various categories of visual art.
