Museum Of Arts & Sciences: $5.8M Revenue, $4.9M Expenses

Museum Of Arts & Sciences pulls a D on the efficiency rubric. The composite of 44/100 reflects below-median performance on the bundle of factors — typically driven by thin operating reserves, volatile revenue, or outsized officer compensation relative to organizational size.

With $5.8M in 2023 revenue, Museum Of Arts & Sciences is in the small-nonprofit bracket — typical of single-program organizations or regional chapters of larger national groups. Reserves are the limiting factor: Museum Of Arts & Sciences carries relatively few months of operating expenses on its balance sheet, which can leave an organization exposed if a major funding source pauses.

Revenue has declined meaningfully over the five-year filing window — a pattern that warrants attention to underlying funding sustainability. Museum Of Arts & Sciences's 2023 revenue is materially below its earlier filings. Compensation for current officers and key employees runs $199,324 against $5.8M in revenue — within the band third-party charity raters typically consider reasonable for an organization of this size and complexity. This is an aggregate across all listed officers, not a single executive's salary. Museum Of Arts & Sciences sits in the cultural-nonprofit sector (Arts, Culture & Humanities). Museum, performing-arts, and cultural organizations carry distinctive financial patterns — earned revenue from ticket sales and admissions, plus a heavy reliance on endowment income and major donor cycles.
