The SMU Data Arts Report is the information that the Michigan Arts and Cultural Council (MAAC) sees when it considers making grants to Inspiration Alcona each year. MACC is usually the source of the single largest grant to Inspiration Alcona each year.
The report you'll see when you click the button below shows the latest three years of information, which MACC relied upon in making grants for the current (2022) fiscal year. The first pages detail financial results; the final ones show statistics about participation and number of people served. The last page explains some apparent oddities in the finances. |
Because Inspiration Alcona is a very small organization, program changes from one year to another often result in large percentage changes in individual lines within the overall financial or participation reports. The most important information lies in the total dollar flow and the overall participation numbers.
In this document, you will see that 2019 appears to be an exceptional year, with more dollars and participants than either 2020 or 2021. But that was before covid forced cancellations and low attendance at many of Inspiration Alcona's programs.
