Mission and programs · 2025
Primary exempt purpose
On Site Operas mission is to:produce site-specific productions in venues throughout New York Cityenrich the cultural life of New York by bringing opera to new audiences who otherwise may not have the opportunity to experience this type of performancecollaborate with local organizations and public schools to build community relationships and reach historically underserved audiencesfoster emerging talent through performance and production opportunities explore new technology and production methods in order to reduce the companys environmental impact
-
In January 2025, the On Site Opera announced its closure. The decision to sunset was driven by an increasingly challenging environment in funding for the arts combined with rising operational costs. These factors have made it significantly more difficult to continue to produce high-quality, immersive works in a financially sustainable way that ensures fair and equitable compensation for artists and staff. On Site Opera is committed to a responsible, preemptive closure that prioritizes integrity and respect for its community. Therefore, the Company's final production was Lucidity which was staged in November 2024 at the Abrons Arts Center. The other productions included in the original scope and expected to be produced in 2025 were cancelled.

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.

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.
