Mission and programs · 2023
Primary exempt purpose
The Nemeth Art Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization and gallery space located in rural northern Minnesota. Open in the summer months, the NAC exhibits contemporary art from emerging and recognized artists and is particularly focused on forging relationships between local and non-local artists through thoughtful curatorial programming. As a strong advocate of creative placemaking in a rural area, the Nemeth is committed to giving the community a public social space for exploring varied perspectives through visual arts, music, literary performance, and youth arts education.

In 2024, the Nemeth hosted two gallery exhibitions showcasing work from four artists, each with their own unique connection to our community. Each show lasted around 1.5 months and was open to visitors from Thursday-Saturday each week. The gallery was open for visitors a total of 66 days in 2024 with an estimate of over 900 visitors during the season. As part of these exhibits, the Nemeth hosted two receptions/artist talks in 2024. These events involved an open house to view the current exhibitions on display and a 30 minute artist talk to hear from each of the artists with work on display and ask them questions.
Expenses $12,335
-
The Nemeth Art Center residency programs offer unique opportunities for visiting artists to interact with patrons and community members in ways such as open studios, artist talks, and collaborative projects. These interactions not only allow artists to share their creative processes and ideas but also enable patrons and community members to gain insight into the artistic journey and develop deeper connections with the artists and their work. In 2024, the Nemeth hosted artists in residence focused on painting, sculpture, and other media.
Expenses $3,728
-
The Nemeth hosts art classes taught by local and regional artists throughout the summer months along with an annual Youth Art Show. These activities provide opportunities to engage with and support budding talent in our own community. These classes were hosted by established local/regional artists in a variety of media. The Youth Art Show ran for the month of May and exhibited work by dozens of local high school students in the gallery.

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.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
