What Lillian and Coleman Taube Museum of Art does
Mission
Promotion of the visual arts through art exhibits, shows and classes.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
Our Gallery on Wheels program coordinates with the individual classroom teachers and principals in the Minot Public School system to schedule a Taube Museum of Art instructor to bring an art project to each of the classrooms in the community free of charge in the fall and the spring, reaching 4000 students twice. We visit about the museum, our role in the community, and present the featured art project. Our presenters teach the students about the new materials, techniques, and information about artists in our society. A related hands on art lesson follows each presentation. Each year the project changes to feature a different famous artist. The purpose is to develop an awareness and appreciation for the artists in our society and expose children to various art materials and techniques. We held 267 sessions in 2024.

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 $751k to $933k (+24%).
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 3% · 2018 4% · 2019 5% · 2020 32% · 2021 2% · 2022 7% · 2023 5% · 2024 21%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.

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. $12k 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.
