Dear TAXPAYER:
This is in response to your Jan. 31, 2012, request for information
regarding your tax-exempt status.
Our records indicate that you were recognized as exempt under
section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code in a determination
letter issued in JANUARY 1936.
Our records also indicate that you are not a private foundation within
the meaning of section 509(a) of the Code because you are described in
section(s) 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi).
Donors may deduct contributions to you as provided in section 170 of
the Code. Bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to you or
for your use are deductible for Federal estate and gift tax purposes
if they meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and
2522 of the Code.
Please refer to our website www.irs.gov/eo for information regarding
filing requirements. Specifically, section 6033(j) of the Code
provides that failure to file an annual information return for three
consecutive years results in revocation of tax-exempt status as of
the filing due date of the third return for organizations required to
file. We will publish a list of organizations whose tax-exempt
status was revoked under section 6033(j) of the Code on our website
beginning in early 2011.

Project Name: Free Admissions Program — School Tours for Students
Please provide a brief description of the project submitted to the 12% SRPMIC Grant program.
The Heard Museum's Free Admissions Program ensures that schools, especially Title One schools, are able
to provide students a culturally enriching learning experience beyond what can be found in text books. A
visit to the Heard Museum brings to life the uniqueness and importance of Native cultures, and helps
children build a deeper understanding and appreciation for people with histories and life-ways other than
their own. Without free admissions for students, teachers and chaperones, many schools simply would not
be able to provide the cultural enrichment found in the exhibits at the Museum. Teachers can choose among
the many galleries and exhibitions when planning their trip. Grade-appropriate tours are recommended or
teachers can choose their own agendas. Docent-guided school tours are provided year round, Monday-
Friday and self-guided groups are welcome seven days a weeks.
Many teachers choose to follow tours of the galleries with a 1 hour Bonus Tour. During the Bonus Tour,
students participate in a hands-on art-making activity which reinforces the themes of American Indian
culture as seen in the galleries they have just visited. Instruction is provided by one of three American

Indian staff members from the education department. Students learn about the materials traditionally used
to make the piece of art along with its historical and cultural context.
In addition to the free admissions, the Museum makes available additional teaching aides including
Traveling Panels Exhibits and a collection of American Indian Art Resource Posters which are kept by
teachers and updated annually with new posters - all free of charge.
Beginning Date of Project: September 1, 2015 End Date of Project: June 15, 2016
NOTE: The Museum accommodates school tours throughout the year — the project dates are when the
funding will be applied.
Geographic Area to be served: Typically, school tours originate from school districts throughout
Maricopa County with the majority coming from cities in the Greater Phoenix Metropolitan area.
** Attach Detailed Budget**
Amount of Total Project The free admissions for students, teachers, and chaperones represents $88,000

If the Amount of funding received is less than the amount needed for the project, do you have other

year's Free Admission Program. Costs in excess of funding will be supported by general operating grants
received each year from the Arizona Commission on the Arts and the Phoenix Office of Arts and Culture.
