What Juxtaposition Arts Inc does
Mission
Juxtaposition arts (jxta) is a visual art and design organization, rooted in north minneapolis for over 30 years. We expand access to creative education and career pathways by engaging emerging artisits in rigorous traning, mentorship and real- world design projects.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
Annually, jxtalabs employs 50 youth aged 14-22 as apprentices in one of four artist-led production studios: contemporary arts, graphic design, large-scale public art (valt 2.0) and environmental design. Apprentices will receive college-level creative and technical training and gain professional experience through work on client projects and internships. Target populations include economically disadvantaged youth, youth of color, and youth who live in, go to school in, or are otherwise connected to north minneapolis. Funding support will be allocated to expenses related to apprentice wages, program staff salaries, public transportation support for apprentices, and program materials. By removing barriers and fostering meaningful engagement with the arts, jxta ensures that historically marginalized youth can access creative employment opportunities that might be out of reach.jxta programs offers a progressive pathway from creative exposue to employment in the regional creative economy:founded in 1995 as a workshop for 15 young artists in north minneapolis public housing, jxta is now an anchor institution of the west broadway commercial corridor and in minneapolis at large.

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 $3.5M to $8.5M (+146%).
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 8% · 2018 5% · 2019 6% · 2020 3% · 2021 11% · 2022 42% · 2023 22% · 2024 8% · 2025 10%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
77% of JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (82% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 11 funders to 30 funders, grant income rose $553k → $2.7M.
12 of 83 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 35% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 83 funders by total. Association, not causation. 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.
How concentrated its funding is
JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 21% of grant income, and it takes 4 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 4 funders to its left
45% 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 JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 45% · 2018 49% · 2019 52% · 2020 21% · 2021 53% · 2022 41% · 2023 73% — growing more concentrated.
“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.
How long its funders stay
45% of JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 52% 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
54% of JUXTAPOSITION ARTS INC's grant income comes from Minnesota funders.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $4.6M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 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.
