What Tanana Yukon Historical Society does
Mission
The Society's mission is to collect and disseminate State and local historical knowledge. A key component of this is the operation of the Wickersham House Museum. As a complement, the Society hosts free public lectures [in-person and via digital media], and sponsors publication of historical research findings and other materials. The Society collaborates with other organizations focused on Alaska's history, knowledge of it and preservation of the intellectual and built environoments. The Society obtains Federal, State, and Local grant monies and contracts in support of historic preservation and cultural resource managements, directly administering some grants and assisting in the administration of others.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990-EZ.
Programs
Wickersham House Museum welcomed 9017 visitors during the summer of 2024. The Society also resumed production of a virtual museum tour of the residences occupied by the Federal judge in the early part of the 20th Century.

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 $131k to $172k (+31%).
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.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 8 reported years ran a deficit.
