ANNUAL REPORT— HOPKINS CENTER FOR THE ARTS
March, 2014
Submitted by: Lynn Anderson and Susan Hanna-Bibus
Thank you to Mayor Maxwell and the members of the Hopkins City Council for the opportunity to report
on the state of the Hopkins Center for the Arts. Our report is in two parts: (1) a review of 2013, and
(2) plans and goals for 2014.
Executive summary:
2013 — Busier than ever....
• 2,959 event hours were booked by renters
• Rental use increased over 40%
• The Center itself presented 13 concerts, 11 gallery exhibitions, 12 Off the Wall member artist
showcases, and other events — serving more people than ever before
• The building was open 356 days with over 215,000 people coming through its doors
and operating with a balanced budget.
Exceeded budgeted income and managed expenses
Four Key Growth Indicators related to income all show increases for 2013 (contributed support;
concert ticket sales; rental income; lease income)
The Friends raised $28,986 in memberships and contributions to support the Center; its
volunteer corps, 160 strong, worked 984 hours
2014 — Building on 2013 but looking to the future.
• A two-year operations plan is in place for 2014-15
• A fund development plan for staff and Friends is also in place (part of this is to replace the
Hopkins Arts Festival with more cost-effective events)
• The Friends have a goal of providing $35,500 in contributed support to support the Center
• We thank the City Council for passing a financial plan which in part provides for City support of
the Center -- this will positively impact our ability to fundraise, especially to seek grant support
The Hopkins Center for the Arts is not only an arts center but also a community center-- the site of
family celebrations, civic meetings, and business events as well as its many and varied arts -based events.
The Friends' Tea and Treasures event in February was successful only because of community
involvement -- through the efforts of local antique dealers who dressed the tea tables as well as local
artists who had jewelry and wearable art booths and, of course, the community members who
attended. It is our goal to continue to seek out mutually beneficial partnerships and to contribute in
whatever way we can to the vitality and reputation of Hopkins. We are honored that the Hopkins
Business and Civic Association chose the Hopkins Center for the Arts as the recipient of its 2013 Civic
Non -Profit Award and we are motivated by this to seek out new opportunities to be an integral part of
Hopkins' cultural, educational, business and social life.
