National Gallery Of Art: $250.9M Revenue, $247.6M Expenses

National Gallery Of Art earns a C on the efficiency rubric — the median bucket on the NonprofitTruth scale, indicating performance close to the national midpoint across financial reserves, officer compensation, and revenue consistency. Composite score: 54/100.

Annual revenue at National Gallery Of Art runs $250.9M (2023), placing it among the larger U.S. nonprofits in the IRS Form 990 dataset. Reserves are the limiting factor: National Gallery Of Art carries relatively few months of operating expenses on its balance sheet, which can leave an organization exposed if a major funding source pauses.

Revenue trend is mildly positive across the five-year filing window — modest growth, consistent with stable funding sources keeping pace with organizational costs. Compensation for current officers and key employees runs $7.1M against $250.9M 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. National Gallery Of Art 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.
