Mission

The Hunter Museum of American Art collects, preserves, and presents American art and connects the community through inspiring educational and visitor focused experiences for all.

  • Welcoming more than 60,000 guests annually, the Hunter Museum of American Art has served for 70 years as a cultural center of the community, presenting significant exhibitions and programs, hosting numerous events and gatherings serving as an important draw for tourists and for businesses considering moving to the region and providing a safe space for contemplation and dialogue. Committed to welcoming all people, the Hunter is very intentional about including under-represented artists and audiences in both the artwork it presents and the visitors and communities it engages. The Hunter Museum has been continuously accredited by the American Alliance of Museums since 1982.

    Expenses $1,393,024 · Revenue $503,698

  • The Hunters permanent collection includes nearly 3,000 works of American art all of which are accessible through the museums website spanning the early 1700s to today, presented across 20 galleries within the museum. The museums three strategic collecting priorities are works by female artists, both historic and contemporary, works by artists of color, both historic and contemporary, and technology-based works, including photography, video, and new media. Making artwork available outside the walls of the museum, the Hunter has over 20 sculptures installed throughout the city and regularly loans artwork to other institutions around the country, furthering the museums accessibility to a wider audience. The museum presents four to six special exhibitions each year, many of which are organized internally. Accompanying the artwork on view are multiple interactive spaces, offering guests the opportunity to become creators

    Expenses $1,119,695

  • The museum is a leader in youth and adult educational experiences, partnering with area organizations and community members to create customized experiences for a range of audiences, such as Black professionals, teenagers, Title 1 school students, Spanish speaking students and adults, area educators, and prison inmates. Public programs engage with community issues and many feature BIPOC creatives and local leaders, all paid for their participation. Recognizing that affordability can be a barrier to access, the museum offers free admission for youth 17 and under, military families, and social service groups, multiple free programs, and free admission on the first Thursday afternoon of every month. A partnership with Museums for All offers EBT cardholders and their guests deeply discounted admission year-round. Fully ADA compliant, the museum has developed hands-on tools to offer additional avenues of access for low vision guests and those on the autism spectrum and continually seeks to meet audiences where they are.

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.
