Rome Art Program INC FY2024 filing

Tax-deductible

New York, NY501(c)(3)Arts & CultureEIN 27-1627533

The rome art program is designed to inspire students to expand their artistic vision through painting and drawing on the streets of rome and florence, and in the countryside of umbria, expanding on the plein-air tradition of earlier generations of artists. The program's ideology is based on the compelling impact that firsthand observation and perception have on drawing and painting. Students will work on location, taking their inspiration from the evocative ruins, churches, renaissance palaces, gardens, and natural scenery that constitute the italian language. Critiques and lectures will lend insight and prompt a deeper knowledge of each student's artistic journey. Guiding students through important sites, distinguished art historians will illuminate the significance of historic places and periods. Working plein-air, where the street and garden becomes the studio, profoundly impacts the focus and output of our students.

501(c)(3) charity; gifts are tax-deductible.

Names, privacy, and removal requests More

The names, titles, and compensation shown on this page are reproduced from IRS Form 990 filings, which are public records.

Philanthropy.org does not alter the content of those filings. All information appears exactly as reported by the filing organization for the tax year shown.

We publish only information contained in the public IRS filing — and less than the filing contains. Our profile pages do not display street addresses, telephone numbers, personal email addresses, or other personal contact information, even where the filing includes them.

Many people share the same name. A name shown on this page reflects only what one organization reported in one IRS filing for one tax year. It should not be interpreted as identifying any other individual with the same or a similar name.

If you are no longer affiliated with the organization, your name will generally stop appearing in future IRS filings once the organization no longer reports you. Pages for tax years in which you were reported remain published because those filings remain part of the public record.

Philanthropy.org does not alter or remove IRS filing records. Removing a page from this website would not remove the underlying IRS filing, which remains publicly available from the IRS and other publishers of the same information.

If you believe the IRS filing itself is inaccurate, corrections must be made by the filing organization or the IRS directly.
