This address is a suite or unit (STE 210). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• The Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra (DPO), the region's oldest performing arts organization, gave its first performance in 1933 under Founder Paul Katz. Its 80 contracted musicians are led by Keitaro Harada, only the fifth Music & Artistic Director in the DPO's 90 year history - providing rare artistic continuity and vision. The DPO was instrumental in the effort to build the Benjamin & Marian Schuster Performing Arts Center a state of the art venue that has elevated Dayton's ability to attract world class guest artists. Each season, the DPO presents a Masterworks Series that balances orchestral classics with contemporary works and serves as an essential artistic partner in major Ballet and Opera productions.

• The Dayton Ballet is the second oldest regional ballet company in the U.S., founded in 1927 when sisters Josephine and Hermene Schwarz established the second oldest ballet school, followed a decade later by the third oldest professional company. Today, the partnership between the school and company remains strong, allowing young artists to train and perform alongside the 20 professional and 10 studio (apprentice) dancers. This legacy is celebrated in the Ballet's annual production of The Nutcracker - its most significant contribution to the community - and Artistic Director Brandon Ragland's new production premiered in 2024. Each season, the Ballet Series presents classic story ballets and a repertoire show, and dancers participate in major Opera and crosslisted orchestra productions.

• The Dayton Opera performed its first season in 1961-1962 and today presents landmark productions that are building momentum and defying national attendance trends. Nationally recognized vocalists are featured alongside our Artists in Residence and chorus, offering mentorship and shared performance opportunities. Each season, the Opera Series includes a grand opera, an iconic musical, and compilation or recital programs. Fully staged productions that unite opera, ballet, and orchestra are among the most anticipated and best received performances, driving significant audience growth in recent years. This success reflects growing national interest in classical music and opera, as well as increasing enthusiasm from some of DPAA's youngest and most diverse audiences.

• Learning and Community Engagement programs address the urgent need for high-quality arts education where all three artforms share the stage and serve upwards of 60,000 students, educators, and caregivers annually. We meet our community where they are - in their classrooms, schools, and the concert hall. In-School and Community Programs: DPAA artists and EnCorps Volunteers bring the arts right to classrooms in local school districts; there's a program for every age level and subject area. Ballet programs are performed by our School Ensemble and Studio Company, opera programs are performed by our 5 Artists-in-Residence, and 5 ensembles from the orchestra (brass quintet, philharmonic trio, string quartet, string quintet, and woodwind quintet) perform in 15 different Adventures in Sound programs. Field Trip Programs: DPAA hosts concert experiences for our youngest audience members throughout the year. Twice a year we host Young People's Concert's and in February we host three special Magic Carpet Concerts. DPAA also hosts a Sensory Friendly production of The Nutcracker annually. Access and exposure to high caliber, live professional performances are an impactful experience that help students broaden their perspectives, inspire an appreciation for the arts, and motivate them beyond the concert hall. Participatory Programs: DPAA has a long history of offering pre-professional training for our community's youngest residents to learn, train, and play. The Dayton Ballet School (1927) with around 250 students annually and Dayton Philharmonic Youth Orchestra (1937), Youth Strings, and Junior Strings with 150+ musicians perform concerts throughout the season, which are listed in our season brochure alongside our mainstage productions. DPAA's Q the Music (2012) program is an afterschool string orchestra program hosted at Ruskin Elementary which serves 40 students each school year.

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.

The first 25 listed. 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.
