In addition, our music and theater ensembles produced process-oriented works that were conceived of, and created by students and brought arts exposure to the community in the form of multiple performances and showcases that specifically focused on the process of creativity itself. Classes served all ages but mostly children and teens. Many free or sliding scale priced spots in our regular programs were provided to local residents. 2776 0 Community Activities: Compass Arts produced regular free activities at the local farmers' markets and local festival events that integrated artists from the local area with audience participation, craft tables and science-based arts activities. Several sessions of our Teen Hangs program offered instructional games and arts experiences to area youth at reduced or no cost. 12836 0 Arts Education Outreach: Compass Arts created and delivered an outreach program for a local Head Start organization and provided full-year tailored arts programming to area schools in the form of after school theatre and arts programs at school campus locations. The Head Start program was funded by donors to Compass Arts and the after school programs were funded by grants made available to area schools. 0 0 0 151716 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 17 0 9 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 3 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 NY X X Andrew Reinhardt 2033139932 53 Russell Ave Beacon NY 125083819 Gina Samardge executive director, secretary 40 0 X X X 56109 0 0 Krista Cone board chair 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 Vicki Vergolina treasurer 0.5 0 X X 0 0 0 56109 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6498 0 2800 66587 1805 75885 Classes Events Space 611699 162918 162918 0 0 2100 2100 0 0 165018 569 569 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6980 6498 3885 3095 0 3095 0 244567 165587 0 3095 X 56109 23566 27493 5050 54726 20248 31194 3284 10375 4150 5395 830 71857 56941 9013 5903 3405 3136 269 1319 12 1285 22 2455 582 1333 540 26319 26119 200 0 2419 2419 2598 1559 1039 0 16323 12984 2176 1163 247905 151716 79128 17061 27853 57430 43654 18839 0 1750 1750 0 0 0 0 8478 5009 13265 6220 9464 7045 0 10192 0 0 0 0 91199 100265 1155 6056 0 0 7503 0 0 0 0 0 1155 13559 X 70309 78706 19735 8000 90044 86706 91199 100265 -3338 0 0 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 X 33482 46938 142736 71506 75885 370547 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 33482 46938 142736 71506 75885 370547 64526 306021 0 0 14 6 569 589 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 371136 652308 0.82455 0.86098 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 13265 6220 7045 0 0 0 0 7045 Form 990, Part VI, Section A, Line 2 Executive director, Gina Samardge is married to chief operating officer, Andrew Reinhardt.
