What Florida Museum of Photographic Arts Inc does
Mission
The florida museum of photographic arts is a museum dedicated to exhibiting important photographic art as central to contemporary life and culture.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Exhibition programs: the florida museum of photographic arts (fmopa) is an institution that collects and exhibits fine-art photography. We are nationally and internationally recognized for our carefully curated exhibitions, which feature significant historical material as well as insightful and relevant contemporary photography. During the 2023 fiscal year, fmopa presented over 20 exhibitions featuring seminal work by emerging and established photographers who are both local to the tampa bay community as well as internationally recognized. These exhibitions helped shape and inform the cultural landscape of the greater tampa bay area and advanced the museum's role as a center of arts education.
$247,924 spent$1,143 earned by the program80% of program spendingPublic programs: in conjunction with our exhibitions, fmopa's diverse lineup of public programs makes photography and arts education available and accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. The lineup includes artist and curator lectures, art-inspired social events, film screenings, a book club, unique workshops for families with young children, and a monthly downtown art crawl. Each of these programs serves to attract visitors to the museum, cultivate interest in the arts and photography, and engage a diverse audience.
$30,990 spent10% of program spendingEducation programs: fmopa is dedicated to fostering creativity and increasing access to art and photography through diverse education initiatives that span all skill levels - from iphone photography for beginners to in-depth professional fine arts photography training for our most advanced students. Educational offerings vary from one day workshops to weekend trips to scenic locations where students gain hands-on training with professionals in the field. These courses are the bridge that allows fmopa visitors to fully connect with the art on the walls; by teaching students the language and techniques of photography, fmopa creates a visually literate audience who can then go on to develop their own artistic perspective.

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 2023 to 2024, from $512k to $575k (+12%).
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 19% · 2018 9% · 2019 40% · 2020 57% · 2021 25% · 2022 31% · 2023 56% · 2024 25%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
99% of FLORIDA MUSEUM OF PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS INC’s revenue is contributions — more reliant on donations than three-quarters of its peers (64% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 5 funders to 7 funders, grant income rose $60k → $122k.
8 of 22 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 40% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left
73% 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 FLORIDA MUSEUM OF PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 50% · 2018 31% · 2019 70% · 2020 37% · 2021 39% · 2022 38% · 2023 41% — diversifying over time.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. 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.

39% of FLORIDA MUSEUM OF PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 50% give in more than one year at all.
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. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
90% of FLORIDA MUSEUM OF PHOTOGRAPHIC ARTS INC's grant income comes from Florida funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $330k arriving through sponsors registered in 7 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.
