DescExhibitions and Collections - See Schedule OExhibitions and Collections: Each year, the Denver Art Museum (DAM) presents exhibitions that provide a variety of experiences with art, regularly attracting more than 736,000 visitors annually. The Museum's approach to exhibitions celebrates the creativity of individual artists who have made an extraordinary impact, and ignites creativity through programs that provide engaging and interactive art experiences. Among the highlights in 2016:Wyeth: Andrew and Jamie in the Studio explored the art of Andrew Wyeth and his son Jamie and featured more than 100 works created in a variety of media, including pen and ink, graphite, charcoal, watercolor, dry brush, tempera, oil, and mixed media. Samurai: Armor from the Ann and Gabriel Barbier-Mueller Collection presented the iconic history of Japanese samurai through 140 objects from one of the finest and most comprehensive collections of samurai armor and accoutrements in the world.The groundbreaking exhibition Women of Abstract Expressionism celebrated the often unknown female artists of this mid-twentieth-century art movement. More than 50 major paintings by artists Mary Abbott, Jay DeFeo, Perle Fine, Helen Frankenthaler, Sonia Gechtoff, Judith Godwin, Grace Hartigan, Elaine de Kooning, Lee Krasner, Joan Mitchell, Deborah Remington, and Ethel Schwabacher amend the art historical record and shine a light on the accomplishments of these significant painters in one of America's most recognizable and influential artistic movements.The exhibition Super Indian: Fritz Scholder, 1967-1980 compiled more than 40 rarely seen, monumental paintings and lithographs by the renowned twentieth-century artist. Though he was influenced by abstract expressionists including Willem de Kooning and Franz Kline, as well as painters Francis Bacon, Francisco de Goya, and Paul Gauguin, Fritz Scholder's work was purely his own. Scholder's work explores his influences, his innovations in the use of color and tackles issues around the the raw reality of being an American Indian.A Place in the Sun: The Southwest Paintings of Walter Ufer & E. Martin Hennings explored the journey of two lifelong friends and fellow artists who were instrumental in defining American art in the twentieth century. A Place in the Sun presented bold, large-scale paintings by Walter Ufer and E. Martin Hennings, who found their niche in the Southwestern village of Taos, New Mexico.A sampling of other exhibitions offered in 2016 includes: Why We Dance: American Indian Art in MotionAll That Glistens: A Century of Japanese LacquerRobert Therrien: The Power of the Image Standing Still: Photographs by Danny SingerKenneth Josephson: Encounters with the UniverseLorna Simpson: Easy to RememberRevolt 1680/2180: Virgil OrtizDesc

DescLearning and Engagement Programs - See Schedule OLearning and Engagement Programs: The Denver Art Museum (DAM) believes that art can make a difference in people's lives by celebrating and stimulating creativity and inspiring greater understanding and connection with our world. To fulfill this vision, the Museum's Department of Learning and Engagement strives to make art relevant and enjoyable to people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.The Department of Learning and Engagement has taken a leading role both nationally and internationally in three areas: 1) research about what visitors need to make a museum visit meaningful; 2) creation of rich and innovative learning resources in collection installations and temporary exhibitions; and 3) interactive learning for young people both in school and family groups. The Department hosts over ten site visits a year from national and international museum colleagues, actively presents at national conferences, and has a strong track record of sharing findings and best practices with the museum field (our reports can be found on the DAM website under 'Research & Reports'). In addition, we host over sixty college and graduate interns annually. Programs include:In-Gallery Installations: The Museum's in-gallery interpretive installations provide visitors with a variety of ways to explore temporary exhibitions and permanent collections on their own. Discovery libraries, Create-n-Takes, Drop In Drawing and Drop In Writing, gallery games for kids and families, browsing areas, and more deepen visitors' experiences with art. Family Programs: The DAM is committed to being a truly family-friendly institution, offering free general admission to all youth ages 18 and under through the Free for Kids program. In order to make the Museum engaging for kids and their grown-ups, we take a two-pronged approach: 1) offering programs and activities at "peak family times" (weekends, school breaks, and summer) and 2) integrating family materials into installations, exhibitions, and public spaces so there's always a way for families to connect with art. Family activities are included with the cost of general admission. Family Backpacks (kid-sized packs filled with games and learning materials for families to use on their own in the galleries) can be checked out on weekends and school breaks. Discovery Library costume areas, eye spy and other gallery games, family create zones, as well as the Just for Fun Family Center (a collection and exhibition-based hands-on activity area) and the Kids Corner (a do-it yourself art project space) are always available. Create Playdate targets 3-5 year olds and their families and Foxy and Shmoxy Art Detectives targets toddlers, helping grown-ups explore the Museum with young children through storytelling and art making opportunities. And, the Studio is a dedicated workshop for hands-on projects and artist demonstrations inspired by themes found in exhibitions. Adult and College Programs: The DAM offers a wide range of opportunities for adults to discover, explore, and make personal connections to collections and exhibitions. Programs range from tours, studio classes, and art history courses to Conversation Lounges and Insider Moments with curators and working artists in the galleries. The DAM's Untitled series engages young adult visitors with art and creativity through unconventional, participatory encounters with art the last Friday of the month. School and Teacher Programs: The hallmark of DAM's school tour program is our interactive touring approach. Our introductory all-museum tours, Perception Games and Imagination Games, have been featured at several national conferences, as have the touchable materials and activities we've developed for our culture and architecture based tours. Creative Explorers, a tour for early childhood groups (ages 3-5), uses storytelling, artmaking, and movement to inspire young students to engage with art. Around 50,000 students visit the Museum each year to explore topics related to visual arts, social studies, and language arts curricula. Creativity Resource, the Museum's online resource for teachers, uses the creativity of artists to inspire creativity in teachers and students and provides downloadable art images, information, lesson plans and multi-media resources, and curated blogs on cultural and creativity topics. Community Partnerships: The learning and engagement department is involved in several strategic collaborations designed to encourage museum visitation by a broader audience. Emphasis is on introducing non-visiting families to the Museum. Current collaborations include work with the Mayor's Office for Education and Children, local school districts, and community centers serving under-resourced neighborhoods. Community access tours given by specially trained community and Spanish-language guides provide these groups with introductory tours of the Museum stressing comfort and awareness of the Museum and all that it has to offer. Other accessibility programs include Art & About tours for individuals with Alzheimer's and early dementia and their care givers, Tactile Tours and Verbal Description Tours for visitors who are blind or low vision, accessibility options for visitors with special needs, and more. Partnerships with the Creative Community: Over the past few years, the Department has increasingly focused on programming that seeks to connect visitors with the creativity of artists and to use our collections to inspire creativity in our visitors. Programming has ranged from collaborations with artists to creation of new "making and residency spaces throughout the campus including: 1) the rotating "Studio" on the first floor of the Hamilton Building, 2) the Native Arts Artist-in-Residence studio in the American Indian galleries 3) the Thread Studio on the sixth floor of the North Building, and 4) a Latino Artist residency program in the Spanish Colonial and pre-Colombian galleries.Overall, learning and engagement programs onsite and online served more than 700,000 people in 2016. This includes visitors to the DAM Collective, Creativity Resource for Teachers, and Museum social media websites.Desc

Part III, Line 1a:The Museum's collections, which were acquired through contributions and purchases, are not recognized as assets on the statement of financial position. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the items are acquired. Contributed collection items are not reflected on the financial statements. Proceeds from deaccessions or insurance recoveries are reflected as increases in the appropriate net asset classes. Museum policies require that such proceeds be used only to acquire additional art objects. All of the Museum's collection items are held for educational, research, exhibition, and curatorial purposes. Each of these collection items is cataloged, preserved, and cared for, and activities verifying their existence and assessing their condition are performed continuously.
Part III, Line 4:The Denver Art Museum (DAM) is dedicated to the collection, preservation, and presentation of art for broadly diverse audiences. With more than 70,000 works of art in its care, the DAM holds the largest and most comprehensive collection of world art between Kansas City and the West Coast. The Museum is an accessible, quality destination, welcoming over 736,000 visitors annually. The Museum is committed to its role as a cultural resource providing shared experiences of art and culture to the Rocky Mountain region and beyond. Collections are organized into nine curatorial departments: Architecture, Design & Graphics; Asian; Modern & Contemporary: Native Art (American Indian, African, and Oceanic); New World (pre-Columbian and Spanish Colonial); Painting & Sculpture; Textile Art; Western American; and Photography. The DAM strives to enrich the lives of present and future generations through the acquisition, presentation and preservation of works of art. The collections further the organization's exempt purpose by providing the sustenance necessary to educate visitors about the past, present and future, and inspire life-long learning.
Part X, Line 2:Management is required to evaluate tax positions taken by the Museum and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Museum has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Management has analyzed the tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability (or asset) or disclosure in the financial statements and determined there are none. The Museum is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions. There are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. Management believes the Museum is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to September 30, 2013.

On an annual basis, each Interested Person must complete a "Disclosure and Compliance" form. This form requests information concerning all actual or potential conflicts of interest involving Interested Persons, their immediate family members and certain entities in which they or their immediate family members have an interest. As new trustees join the Board, new committee members are appointed, new officers are elected, or new employees who are covered under the policy are appointed (if those individuals are not already Interested Persons by reason of holding another of these positions) such individuals are also required to complete the "Disclosure and Compliance" form. In case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, the Museum uses a process at the Executive Committee level to investigate actual or potential conflicts of interest. Following disclosure of an actual or potential conflict, the person or persons involved with the conflict are not permitted to participate in any discussions relevant to determining if a conflict of interest exists. They may, however, be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Executive Committee at which a conflict is being reviewed and may make a presentation to the Executive Committee to disclose the conflict and answer questions relevant thereto, but must leave the meeting during the discussion of and vote on whether the transaction or arrangement at issue resulted in a conflict of interest. If a conflict does exist, the Policy dictates ensuing steps, including investigating alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement and appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. The Museum maintains records concerning investigations of actual and potential conflicts of interest.
Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15The Museum's procedures for determining executive compensation include reviewing comparability data, monitoring the competitive market place, and approval by the executive committee of the Board of Trustees. Determining the compensation for the Museum's other officers and key employees follows the Museum's compensation policies and practices. This includes reviewing comparability data, considering the competitive market place, and the review and approval by the Museum's executive management.
Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19The Museum makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy and financial statements available to the public upon reasonable request.
Part XII, Line 2cThe Finance/Audit committee meets annually with the independent CPA firm to review the results of the current audit and internal control recommendations, if any. The Finance/Audit committee also assumes the annual responsibility of approving the selection of the audit firm. There have been no changes in these processes from the prior year.
