New Georges invests in artists of assertive imagination as individuals, as collaborators, and as a community and sparks relationships and opportunities that advance their work and careers. Today, our diverse network of affiliated artists includes 180 women playwrights and directors, actors and designers, at all career stages. We commit to these affiliates for the long term, providing a community of colleagues they can draw on and the resources and support they need to thrive in a difficult field. Artists come to us and return to us for the culture of our company and the consistency of our work, and because we are a bedrock organization where the artistic risks they want to take will be supported with creativity, understanding and integrity. The primary resource with which we serve artists is The Room, our permanent workspace for women theater artists, located at ART/NY's Spaces at 520 at 520 8th Avenue. In addition to using The Room for our own programs and rehearsals, we provide space to affiliated artists for their own projects at subsidized rates a critical program in Manhattan, where the scarcity of affordable space has significant impact on the development of new works. In 2013, 46 affiliated artists took advantage of this program. Our 19-year commitment to providing artists with free or low-cost workspace for new play development is unique among downtown theaters and has incubated thousands of new works.

Form 990, Part VI, Line 12c: Explanation of Monitoring and Enforcement of Conflicts Periodic reviews shall be conducted by the Board to ensure that Theater Labrador operates in a manner consistent with its charitable purposes and that it does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its status as an organization exempt from federal income tax. Should a Conflict of Interest exist, the Chairperson of the Board or committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement.

If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably attainable under circumstances that would not give rise to a conflict of interest, the Board or committees shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the best interest and for its own benefit and whether the transaction or arrangement is fair and reasonable to Theater Labrador and shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement in conformity with such determination.
