Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

THE CHIPPEWA VALLEY CULTURAL ASSOCIATION (CVCA) WAS FORMED IN 1976 TO ACCOMPLISH TWO MAIN GOALS: (1) TO SAVE THE OLD MCDONELL MEMORIAL HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING FROM DESTRUCTION AND RESTORE IT AS A VENUE FOR THE CREATIVE INDUSTRY IN THE CHIPPEWA VALLEY; AND (2) TO PROVIDE A VENUE AND AN OPPORTUNITY FOR LOCAL ARTISTS, PERFORMERS, WRITERS AND CREATIVE PRODUCERS TO EXPLORE, GROW AND SHARE THEIR TALENTS WITH OTHERS IN THE REGION AND BEYOND. ADDITIONALLY, THE CVCA SEEKS TO BRING IN GIFTED INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS FROM OUTSIDE THE REGION AS WELL WITH THE VISION OF EXPOSING CHIPPEWA VALLEY RESIDENTS TO THE TALENTS OF PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO RENOVATE AND PRESERVE A HISTORIC BUILDING TO PROVIDE A CULTURAL CENTER IN ORDER TO STIMULATE COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT AND INTEREST IN ALL FORMS OF THE ARTS

  • OUR COMMITMENT TO THE ARTS WAS EVIDENT IN THE 62 EVENING OR WEEKEND PERFORMANCES, WITH OVER 45% OF THEM SPOTLIGHTING LOCAL PERFORMERS. THESE EVENTS NOT ONLY SHOWCASED THE INCREDIBLE TALENT WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY BUT ALSO BROUGHT US TOGETHER TO CELEBRATE THE ARTS. ADDITIONALLY, OUR THIRTEEN DAYS OF MATINEE PERFORMANCES DREW SOLID AUDIENCES, FURTHER HIGHLIGHTING THE COMMUNITYS ENTHUSIASM FOR THE ARTS. THESE MATINEE PERFORMANCES BROUGHT MOTORCOACH TOURS FROM WISCONSIN AND MINNESOTA AS WELL AS MET A DEMAND FOR WEEKDAY ENTERTAINMENT OPTIONS FOR OUR LOCAL SENIORS WITH MANY ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES AND GROUP HOMES TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET OUT AND ENJOY LIVE THEATER.

    Expenses $143,867 · Revenue $168,135

  • WE ARE PARTICULARLY PROUD OF OUR EFFORTS IN ARTS EDUCATION AND OUTREACH. NEARLY 1,000 YOUTH, AGES 5 TO 18, PARTICIPATED IN EDUCATIONAL EVENTS SUPPORTED BY THE HEYDE CENTER, NURTURING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ARTISTS AND ART ENTHUSIASTS.

    Expenses $2,986 · Revenue $6,130

  • OUR CENTER ALSO HOSTED 32 DAYS OF SPECIAL EVENTS, FROM BUSINESS PARTIES TO WEDDINGS AND CELEBRATIONS OF LIFE, PROVIDING A SPACE FOR OUR COMMUNITY TO COME TOGETHER IN JOY AND REMEMBRANCE. BEYOND THESE MAJOR EVENTS, WE HOSTED BOOK READINGS, VISUAL ART EXHIBITS, SMALLER MEETINGS, AND 13 ARTS CLASSES FOR ADULTS, ENSURING THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AT THE HEYDE CENTER.

    Expenses $6,518 · Revenue $10,437

  • OTHER EXPENSES NOT DIRECTLY ALLOCATED TO PROGRAM SERVICES SUCH AS PUBLICITY ADVERTISING, BUILDING MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR, FACILITY RENTAL COST, AND MEMBER SERVICES/ADMINISTRATION.

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.
