To help advance awareness and appreciation of art song repertoire. To generally contribute to the cultural vibrancy of the borough of Brooklyn and beyond. To commission new works by contemporary composers. Brooklyn Art Song Society produced live classical music (art song) concerts in the borough of Brooklyn, New York. The season featured professional musicians (singers and pianists) and reached and audience of over 1,000. Senior citizens and students received free admission. Artists presented outreach to underserved communities. Subscriber and patrons utilized the digital concert hall, left over from the year of the pandemic. This increased our audience to across the country.

I was under a real crunch due to technical problems with Quickbooks and when I created a report for the 23-24 year, I realize now that I was missing February - June. When another member of the administrative staff reviewed the 990EZ, the mistake was discovered. Sincerely, Ellen Brofman Administrative Director Brooklyn Art Song Society Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 8 Other revenue: Ticket and subscription sales, Program Revenue: Noel Pointer Foundation ($500), cash ticket sales Form 990-EZ, Part I, Line 16 Bank fees, advertising and promotions, licensing fees, business registration fees,, website maintenance and travel, refunds for performers There were major complications regarding Quickbooks. I spent over 30 hours over 4 days trying to fix incorrect information that I was given by service agents. I then fell and hurt my hip (not sure if this counts). Since we have a very small administrative staff and 2 concerts to prepare for in the last few weeks, it was difficult for me to complete this in a timely manner. It was then brought to my attention that I forgot to include 5 months of data. It would be greatly appreciated if no fines were charged. Thank you, Ellen Brofman
