What Sedona Chamber Ballet Company does
Mission
To present world-class dance artistry onstage. We aim to make all forms of dance relevant, accessible, and inviting to the widest possible audience while maintaining financial stability.

As stated on its FY2025 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
In 2023 we presented the renown American Ballet Theatre in Sedona Arizona. Presenting the American Ballet Theatre (ABT) in a rural community brought significant cultural benefits. Firstly, it enriched the community by exposing residents to high-quality art that they might not typically have access to, fostering a deeper appreciation for ballet and the performing arts. This exposure inspired local talent, encouraging aspiring dancers and performers to pursue their artistic passions. Additionally, ABT performances serve as educational opportunities, offering workshops and lectures that enhanced the learning experience for students and community members interested in dance and theater. Secondly, hosting ABT had a positive economic impact on the rural area. It attracted visitors from nearby regions, boosting tourism and supporting local businesses such as hotels, restaurants, and shops. This infusion of cultural tourism not only brought economic benefits but also elevated the community's profile and contributed to its overall vibrancy. Overall, presenting ABT in a rural community contributed to cultural enrichment, educational opportunities, economic growth, and community engagement,…

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 2021 to 2022, from $14k to $37k (+157%).
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.
86% of SEDONA CHAMBER BALLET COMPANY’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (78% for the typical peer).

Who funds it, year by year
2020 → 2023: the base broadened from 1 funder to 2 funders, grant income rose $55 → $15k.
2 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% 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 SEDONA CHAMBER BALLET COMPANY’s funders (the co-funder graph). 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
SEDONA CHAMBER BALLET COMPANY leans on a few funders — its largest provides 100% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% 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 SEDONA CHAMBER BALLET COMPANY.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“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.
Where its funders are
100% of SEDONA CHAMBER BALLET COMPANY's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $50k 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.
