Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
More Minnesotans, especially those in the Southwest Minnesota Region, will be able to participate in the arts. The measurement of the success of our project will be if we establish non-profit status for and legally create a Pipestone Performing Arts Foundation that will create an entity to keep large endowments and distribute interest to the Pipestone Performing Arts Center to help keep it sustainable and support the arts in Pipestone.
Measurable Outcome(s)
That letter from the IRS indicates that we accomplished our goal of establishing the Foundation as a non-profit entity separate from the Arts Center by obtaining 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status for the Foundation and obtaining a corresponding tax ID number (26-3340303).
