About Us

Financials

Creative West, a 501c3 not-for-profit organization, manages a financially complex network of grants and software services for the arts. We lean on our partnerships with the National Endowment for the Arts, the Murdock Trust, and the generous donations we receive to ensure a robust home and promising future for the arts in the West.

990 Forms

Creative West is a not-for-profit organization committed to transparency. Each year, we make our completed tax form 990 available to the public by uploading these documents to Guidestar.com, where the public can review them. (Note that the financials do not include ZAPP®, a separate LLC under the Creative West nonprofit umbrella, which is required to file a form specifically for limited liability companies and partnerships.)
