Mission and programs · 2024

CHILDRENS CLASSES ARE OFFERED FOR AGES 2-14 THROUGH OUR ART AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM DURING THE WINTER, SPRING, AND FALL SEMESTERS, AND OUR CHILDRENS SUMMER ART PROGRAM DURING THE SUMMER SEMESTER. THE FIREHOUSE ALSO OFFERS OUR 5TH GRADE ART PROGRAM, ART SPARKS, IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NORMAN PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THIS PROGRAM PROVIDES 5TH GRADE STUDENTS WITH IN-CLASS PRE AND POST VISITS WITH AN ART EDUCATOR AND A FIELD TRIP TO THE FIREHOUSE. THESE PROGRAMS PLAY A VITAL ROLE IN THE NORMAN COMMUNITY, AS NORMANS PRIMARY SCHOOLS HAVE NO DEDICATED ART INSTRUCTORS.

As filed on the 2024 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.
