What Albany Civic Theater Inc does
Mission
To provide quality entertainment as an outlet for artistic achievement and an educational resource for the albany, oregon community and the greater mid-willamette valley.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Act produced a full season of 10 in-person shows during the 2024-2025 season. Productions include musicals and nonmusicals and appeal to a wide audience. We continued to stream shows where we could obtain a license. Act features a new local artist as a part of each production. Act volunteers and audiences come from linn, marion, polk, and benton counties and beyond as far away as lane and multnomah counties and even other states to enjoy performances. Our volunteer tracking system shows over 35,000 volunteer hours contributed by show volunteers, board members, managers, and technical people involved in shows during a typical season.updated soft goods (curtains) were purchased. A new roof was installed. We continue to pursue projects that increase accessibility for our patrons. Act partners with organizations such as cornerstone associates, willamette manor, and easter seals to increase inclusivity at the theater. Act is an active member of the oregon community theater alliance (octa) and the midvalley theater network (mvtn).

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2020 to 2021, from $410k to $1.4M (+238%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2022 31% · 2025 20%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
53% of ALBANY CIVIC THEATER INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (64% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 2 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $500 → $1k.
2 of 4 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 4% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $10k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
