• FORM 990-EZ, PART III, LINE 28, PROGRAM SERVICE ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Wildfire was proud to continue their partnership with the Town of Berthoud, providing arts and cultural programming to the Berthoud community. Town funding provides operating income to continue employing a part-time Programs Director and part-time Administrative Director. Through varied, quality and affordable programming Wildfire touted a 21% increase in the number of programs held in 2024 with 34 classes and workshops. Additionally we saw a 46% increase in the number of class participants totaling 4,668 for 2024. Program offerings include youth, adult and multi-generational classes covering multiple disciplines fostering creativity in art, music, dance and movement. Wildfires longstanding adult ballet and tap classes continue to thrive and welcome new members. Country line dancing was first offered in 2023 and continues to grow. Visual art programming continue to be popular with an adult 6-week water color series introduced. After school art club and our semester long homeschool art programs were so successful that they are now offered twice weekly to accommodate more participants. Wildfire continues to offer hand drumming for adults and introduced a multi-generational ukulele class to round out music offerings. Wildfire continues to build upon their community visibility through event participation. In addition to participating in local events such as Skate-a-palooza, Berthoud Day and Trick-or-Treat Street, Wildfire hosted Art in the Park in conjunction with the weekly Berthoud Farmers Market. Wildfire hosted two signature events this year. StreetFest was held in September and touted over 400 people in attendance. Our Holiday Makerspace was held in December with 200 attending this inaugural event.
