HARP is a multi-year artist residency that provides up to $125,000 in direct and in-kind commissioning, development, and producing support. During FY2025, the HARP cohort artists received year-round guidance and assistance from HERE staff and opportunities to showcase work in process at HERE and through partnerships with other local nonprofits. Three HARP projects were premiered by HERE, graduating its artists from our residency program: LEIMAYs A MEAL (September 2024), [UNTITLED MINIATURE] by Joshua Gelb (February 2025) and Shayok Misha Chaudhrys RHEOLOGY (April 2025).

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
