What Bradford County Regional Arts Council Inc does
Mission
The bradford county regional arts council is a nonprofit organization dedicated to building and supporting a thriving regional arts community by: a) advocating for the arts; b) cultivating quality arts programming; and c) preserving bradford county's historic theaters as venues for performances, community events, and movies.
As stated on its FY2021 Form 990.
Programs
Live performances and film presentation (includes regranting to others for live performances): the bcrac presents live performances in its historic theatres through the youth series, the nightlife on the susquehanna series and numerous stand-alone shows. Films are presented daily in the historic theatres as well. Based on ticket sales it is estimated that this program directly serves 105,000 people yearly. The bcrac works with the pennsylvania council on the arts to fairly distribute state funds to arts organizations who provide festivals, live performances, and other arts presentations. While not directly serving people who enjoy these events, this program indirectly serves an estimated 55,000 people from the wider region. While the initial restoration of the three bcrac historic theatres are complete, there is on-going capital expenditures and maintenance required by these wonderful hundred year old arts facilities.

Typically, artists are funded to perform residency work with schools and community organizations to not only bring the arts to people but to help them learn skills in alternative ways.based on average residency numbers, it is estimated that over 900 students receive direct intense arts experiences during the multiple day residencies. Indirectly another 3,200 children and adults are exposed to the artists through group performances. Many of these students would not be exposed to quality arts activities without the bcrac arts in education program.

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.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $1.8M to $1.5M (−16%).
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: 2017 17% · 2018 21% · 2019 17% · 2021 70% · 2022 34% · 2023 24% · 2024 31%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 6 of the last 7 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.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
93% 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 BRADFORD COUNTY REGIONAL ARTS COUNCIL INC.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $36k arriving through sponsors registered in 3 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.
