Strategy, design, development, and prototyping in the Alliance Innovation Studio is customized uniquely for each project. We bring together a team of creative and tech experts based on the needs of the project; the central requirement for inclusion in the Innovation Studio is a commitment to sharing out the development process with the field and making the project available for replication (Continued on Schedule O)in diverse communities and contexts.

All of the programs of our Youth Media Network use an intergenerational, co-creative approach as a means to demonstrate the possibilities and impact of a range of youth and elders working collaboratively and inclusively, interrogating power and privilege across program areas, with the goal of providing new models and emerging practices for the field. 416774 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 22 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 9 9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 NY X Wendy Levy 5104068623 1919 S Syringa Road Spokane WA 99203 Chris Johnson President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Eric Doversberger Vice-President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Anula Shetty Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Brian Frye Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Kasandra VerBrugghen Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Tahui An Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Andy Beach Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Cassidy Arkin Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Edgar Burch Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Wendy Levy Executive Director 40.00 X 131869 0 10143 131869 0 10143 1 0 0 0 0 7500 355218 362718 Consulting 611600 173800 173800 Fiscal Sponsorship Ser 900099 21703 21703 195503 267 267 558488 195503 0 267 X 14300 14300 142012 104606 18851 18555 10810 8132 1233 1445 41671 896 40775 211338 209988 1350 2607 2607 7040 4948 2067 25 36205 36205 1407 1283 124 18787 16205 2582 4461 4461 2215 2215 Honorarium 11600 11600 Arts2Work Fund Contribu 4395 4395 1609 1609 510457 416774 69726 23957 189223 42326 186210 300802 9000 72500 0 7920 7096 7372 21790 20683 3322 1107 10240 0 405091 432027 91825 23942 0 16147 0 30641 91825 70730 X 101607 135954 211659 225343 313266 361297 405091 432027 48031 0 X 1 X 0 0 0 X 414280 1508652 190494 416986 362718 2893130 414280 1508652 190494 416986 362718 2893130 1778024 1115106 29 28 40 86 267 450 2893580 622929 0.38540 0.31330 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 X 21790 20683 1107 1107 X Part IV, Line 2b: The Alliance for Media Arts + Culture, a 501c3 organization, enters into selected fiscal sponsorship agreements with individuals or other entities whose projects align with The Alliance's mission. The Alliance acts as a nonprofit intermediary for these individuals or entities. As soon as a grant is received for a project, The Alliance will immediately pass it through to the project while retaining a 5% administrative fee. The Alliance regularly meets with project directors of the fiscally sponsored projects to make sure the accounting is in order, all monies are being used as intended, and all funder reports are filed in a timely fashion. Part X, Line 2: Management believes that the Organization has appropriate support for any tax positions taken affecting its annual filing requirements, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements. The Organization would recognize future accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits and liabilities in income tax expense if such interest and penalties are incurred. Wendy Levy Executive Director Employee advance X 7920 7920 0 1 0 7920 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 8b The Organization does not have committees with authority to act on behalf of the governing body. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b The Executive Committee receives and reviews a copy of the Form 990 prior to filing. The full board of Directors receives and reviews the filed 990 in advance of the next calendared Board meeting. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c Conflict of Interest Policy covers Board Members and Executive Director. Each covered person must furnish a completed conflict of interest disclosure statement to the Secretary or designated compliance officer prior to their election to the board. The Executive Committee, in consultation with the Executive Director, reviews Disclosure Statements to determine if restrictions are required. At the next full Board meeting, necessary restrictions are discussed, noted in the minutes and implemented in an addendum to the disclosure statement, subject to review upon appointment as an officer, or upon appointment as a manager, as applicable, and thereafter on an annual basis. In addition, each current covered person should update his/her disclosure statement promptly if there is any material change in the information s/he provided in his/her disclosure statement. To facilitate such disclosure, the Secretary will provide covered persons with a list of the Alliance's material transactions and relationships upon request. The Secretary must provide a copy of all completed annual disclosure statements to the board Chair and the Executive Director. If a board member is determined to have a conflict of interest, several restrictions may be imposed to ensure the integrity of the organization and avoid legal or ethical issues. Common restrictions might include: 1. Disclosure: The board member must disclose the conflict of interest to the board and, sometimes, to the public or stakeholders, depending on the organization's policies. 2. Recusal from Decision-Making: The board member may be required to abstain from voting or participating in discussions related to the matter in which the conflict exists. They should step out during discussions to ensure transparency. 3. Resignation from Specific Roles: If the conflict is related to a specific project or committee, the board member might be asked to step down from that role or committee to avoid any undue influence. 4. Approval of Actions by Disinterested Board Members: Any decisions involving the conflict must be approved by board members who do not have a conflict. The disinterested members ensure that decisions are fair and in the best interest of the organization. 5. Independent Review: Some organizations may require an independent third-party review of the transaction or matter to ensure it is fair and does not benefit the conflicted board member inappropriately. 6. Removal from Board: In extreme cases where the conflict is severe or cannot be mitigated, the board may ask the member to resign or, if necessary, remove them in accordance with the organization's bylaws. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a The Board of Directors follows a structured process to determine the compensation for the Executive Director, ensuring fairness, compliance with regulations, and alignment with the organization mission and financial health. The process was last undertaken in 2021. The Board utilizes comparability data and evaluates the Executive Director's performance to determine proposed compensation. The Board then considers budget constraints to determine final compensation. Once these steps are complete the Board formally approves the compensation package through a vote during a board meeting, documenting the process and decision. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 The Organization makes copies of documents available to the public upon written request.
