What Amherst Ballet Theatre Company Inc does
Mission
To promote and foster an awareness and appreciation of dance in western massachusetts by providing dance classes, workshops and opportunities for students to perform in programs of professional quality to the community.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Amherst ballet theatre company's largest expense was a small salary paid to the director, mikayla archambeau, who also taught most classes, which totaled 20 hours per week, besides her administrative duties of 10-15 hours weekly. In the second year of our director's leadership we successfully sold our longtime building of 40 years, found suitable temporary locations for classes, held a succesful spring show with sold out audiences, and found a new home which is better suited to our future expansion for reasonable monthly rent.
$18,000 spent11% of program spendingOur second largest expense was monthly rent paid for two temporary locations which allowed us to sustain a high level of teaching and learning for our students. This total includes a 3-month deposit paid in advance before we moved into our new (current) home at 65 sunderland road, amherst ma 01002.
$23,422 spent15% of program spendingAnother large expense was for a new professional quality marley dance floor at our new (current) home at 65 sunderland road, amherst ma 01002. This purchase was partially funded by a grant of $10,000 from the wild gifting foundation.

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 2024 to 2025, from $267k to $131k (−51%).
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: 2025 1%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
6% of AMHERST BALLET THEATRE COMPANY INC’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (64% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 8 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
32% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund AMHERST BALLET THEATRE COMPANY INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2019 100% · 2020 100% · 2021 61% · 2022 56% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k 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.
