What Electronic Music Education and Preservation Project does
Mission
To collect and preserve rare musical instruments and to educate the public about these instruments through displays and educational seminars.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
EMEAPP engages in an active program of collection, care, and conservation of electronic musical equipment to preserve and share the history, artists, sounds, equipment and technology of electronic music, keeping it relevant and accessible for future generations. Specifically, EMEAPP continued its work in developing original-content educational audio/video projects to be shared on EMEAPPs social media and web platform; it initiated development of a large analog studio space allowing musicians access to EMEAPPs collection of musical equipment; and it began designing a new venue space that will be used to host original/tribute performances, exhibits, and educational events. The organization also is building out its Museum of Music Technology.

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 2022 to 2023, from $528k to $673k (+28%).
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: 2021 9%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
100% of ELECTRONIC MUSIC EDUCATION AND PRESERVATION PROJECT’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (64% for the typical peer).
