WE PROVIDE TIME, SPACE, AND RESOURCES FOR CREATIVE WORK AND CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO CONNECT THROUGH ART. false false 157201 15581 Exhibitions: We organize three major exhibitions each year that are always free and open to the public. These shows bring together artists whose work explores important issues like equity, justice, and representation in culture. Each exhibition is designed to be immersive and engaging, and is often paired with talks, publications, and other events that help spark conversation and keep the ideas moving beyond our gallery. 123901 11684 Regranting:Through the Andy Warhol Foundations Regional Regranting program, The Luminary provides $60,000 each year directly to artists in St. Louis. Individual projects can receive up to $8,000, with 610 artists supported annually. This program focuses on community-based and socially engaged projects, giving local artists the resources to take on bold ideas that might not be funded otherwise. 78601 7791 Residency:Our residency program gives visiting artists, writers, and curators time and space to focus deeply on their work. Residents receive full support to research new ideas, create projects, and connect with St. Louiss cultural community. Many residents develop new writing, artworks, or programs while here, and the residency helps build connections between local audiences and national or international perspectives. 33300 3896 Public Programs:We host a wide range of public events that connect artists and audiences. These include our EMERGE professional development program for artists, as well as talks, screenings, workshops, and performances. Public programs are designed to be welcoming and responsive, creating opportunities for people to learn, share ideas, and take part in the larger conversation around contemporary art. 33300 3896 393003 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 73 0 true 7 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 7 7 false false false false false false false true true false false true true false true false false false true false MO X Kentaro Kumanomido 3147731533 2701 CHEROKEE ST ST LOUIS MO 63118 Kalaija Mallery Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X X 80000 0 8575 Nathaniel Lucena President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Kristin Fleischman-Brewer BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jos Garza BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jessie Donovan Vice President 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Christopher Ryan BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Liz Diechmann BOARD MEMBER 5.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 80000 8575 0 false false false 0 522939 522939 EARNED INCOME 711300 38949 38949 38949 1075 1075 0 0 0 0 0 0 14234 2602 11632 11632 OTHER 900099 3 3 3 574598 38952 12707 0 11000 11000 0 0 88575 88575 0 112105 112105 0 6678 6678 14774 14774 0 14944 14944 0 0 0 0 0 3384 3384 1468 1468 0 0 0 2162 2162 0 0 31981 31981 0 20889 20889 9999 9999 PROGRAM EXPENSES 60671 60671 FUTURES FUND EXPENSE 53350 53350 UTILITIES 25462 25462 SOFTWARE 11499 11499 38917 22799 16118 507858 393003 111471 3384 124221 205490 26586 27661 0 3346 24490 0 0 0 0 0 1009249 206949 864968 802300 0 0 0 0 0 1019121 1059941 -4300 89 322781 305376 -28210 665 290271 306130 X 728850 753811 728850 753811 1019121 1059941 66740 -41779 X false false false X 288056 349366 488747 418550 522939 2067658 0 0 288056 349366 488747 418550 522939 2067658 108619 1959039 93 202 1075 1370 0 0 2069028 202213 0.94680 0.99990 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 15000 15000 994249 206949 787300 802300 STUDIO DEPOSITS 665 665 true 0 0 Futures Fund 2 11000 CASH Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used All grant expenses are tracked separately in our accounting system and reviewed regularly by staff and the Board.
