DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED USE OF FUNDS
Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre (GHDT) is requesting funds to help underwrite 2023
operational expenses. With the move to Carmel, funding sources from Marion County are less
likely to be granted. By performing at the Center for the Performing Arts, Gregory Hancock
Dance Theatre strives to offer Carmel, Hamilton County and Central Indiana audiences,
opportunities to experience professional dance through the exciting and brilliant theatrical
performances of GHDT. The expense of producing professional dance concerts is high with
competitive artistic and technical salaries being the number one expense. Paid artists are a
priority for the company. Additional funding from the community, foundations, grants, and
ticket sales are used to cover production costs for all concerts throughout the season.
GHDT is requesting an increase in funding for 2023 to pay competitive artistic salaries, hire
male dancers, and cover the rising cost of operational expenses, including utilities, insurance,
and rent. The increase in funding will also be used to produce new works which will include
The Music of LA CASA AZUL with the Carmel Symphony Orchestra at The Palladium, and a
new program celebrating Hispanic culture, DIA DE LOS MUERTOS at The Tarkington. New
programs are costly to produce as they require new costumes and sets. Along with the new
works, GHDT will present classic works from the company's vast and diverse repertoire. GHDT
has been fortunate to receive support from the Christel DeHaan Family Foundation for numerous
years. Christel DeHaan requested that her foundation be dissolved upon her passing. However,
she selected GHDT among a small group of recipients to apply for a Legacy Grant, which will be
in the form of the establishment of an endowment for GHDT, if awarded. While this will assist
in GHDT's longevity, it will cause a loss of strong funding in 2023. Increased funding from the
City of Carmel will also assist in covering this deficit.
Listed below is the breakdown of the proposed use of funds for 2023.
PROPOSED USE OF FUNDS FOR 2023 CITY OF CARMEL ARTS GRANT
EXPENSES AMOUNT PERCENTAGE
Artistic Salaries/taxes 43 341 43.34%

TOTAL 100 000 100%
GHDT will celebrate 2023 with new stories and original choreography, created by Executive
Artistic Director Gregory Hancock. GHDT's 2022 season included four new concerts, which

GHDT is honored and grateful to receive financial support from the City of Carmel. We greatly
appreciate the opportunity to be considered for an increase in funding for 2023, to provide
competitive salaries, hire 2 additional male dancers, present new works, and meet the financial
demands of price increases in operational expenses. Ongoing, strong support from the City of
Carmel is vital for GHDT to continue to offer ground -breaking performances and world premiere
works to Central Indiana audiences. GHDT supports Mayor Brainard's mission of cultural
diversity by creating and performing artistic works from a variety of cultures, collaborating with
local cultural organizations, and rnaintauung professional networks with a variety of individuals
and groups throughout the world. We are proud to call Carmel our home and we desire to
continue to become more deeply visible as one of Carmel's greatest assets in our ever evolving
and thriving community.

This letter is in response to your request for a copy of your organization's determination letter. This letter will
take the place of the copy you requested.
Our records indicate that a determination letter issued in February 1988 granted your organization exemption
from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. That letter is still in effect.
Based on information subsequently submitted, we classified your organization as one that is not a private
foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the Code because it is an organization described in
section 509(a)(2).
This classification was based on the assumption that your organization's operations would continue as stated
in the application. If your organization's sources of support, or its character, method of operations, or
purposes have changed, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on the exempt
status and foundation status of your organization.
Your organization is required to fiie Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, only if its
gross receipts each year are normally more than $25,000. If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th
day of the fifth month after the and of the organization's annual accounting period. The law imposes a
penalty of $20 a day, up to a maximum of $10,000. when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable
cause for the delay.
All exempt organizations (unless specifically excluded) are liable for taxes under the Federal Insurance
Contributions Act (social security taxes) on remuneration of Ti no or more paid to each employee during a
calendar year. Your organization is not liable for the tax imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act
FUTA).
Organizations that are not private foundations are not subject to the excise taxes under Chapter 42 of the
Code. However, these organizations are not automatically exempt from other federal excise taxes.
Donors may deduct contributions to scour organization as provided in section 170 of the Code.
legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to your organization or for its use are deductible for federal aJ a04 a ,u
gift tax purposes if they meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and 2522 of the Cede.

Your organization is not required to file federal income tax returns unless it is subject to the tax on unrelated
business income under section 511 of the Code. If your organization is subject to this tax, it must file an
income tax return on the Form 990-T, Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return. In this letter, we
are not determining whether any of your organization's present or proposed activities are unrelated trade or
business as defined in section 513 of the Code.
The law requires you to make your organization's annual return available for public inspection without charge
for three years after the -due date of the_retum, . You are also required to make available for public inspection
a copy of your organization's exemption application, any supporting documents and the exemption letter to
any individual who requests such documents in person or in writing. You can charge only a reasonable fee
for reproduction and actual postage costs for the copied materials. The law does not require you to provide
copies of public inspection documents that are widely available; such as by posting them on the Internet
World Wide Web). You may be liable for a penalty of $20 a day for each day you do not make these
documents available for public inspection (up to a maximum of $10,000 in the case of an annual return).
Because this letter could help resolve any questions about your organization's exempt status and foundation
status, you should keep it with the organization's permanent records.
If you have any questions, please call us at the telephone number shown in the heading of this letter
This letter affirms your organization's exempt status.
Sincerely,

The 2022 performance season marked GHDT's 25th anniversary as an arts organization. GHDT's
2022 season was not only beautiful and entertaining, but educational, culturally diverse, and
thought -provoking. The season showcased repertoire from GHDT's 25-year history that tells a
story of how the company has evolved. GHDT partnered with numerous organizations for
specialized marketing including The Jewish Federation of Indianapolis, The Jewish Community
Center Indianapolis, The Jewish Post and Opinion, Carmel Chamber of Commerce, The
Rainbow Chamber, various LGBTQ+ organizations, numerous organizations within the local
Indian community and VetTix. The company had booths at Carmel Fest, Children's Festival, and
Carmel Pride.
GHDT'S 2022 performance season included the following concerts:
THE BLACK DAHLIA
February 12-27, 2022
The Academy of GHDT
GMT's highly popular and critically acclaimed "film noir" piece about the unsolved murder of
Elizabeth Short in the 1940's.
Watching the GHDT dance troupe perform has become one of my very favorite theatre
activities. The entire group is remarkably talented, and work so well together, one can't imagine
any of these productions without all the current members.
The overall effect is a remarkably satisfying evening of beautiful entertainment which is fun,
thoughtful, and often stunning through the innovative choreography and resulting interpretation.
Rack up another success for GHDT. " - Ken Klingenmeier — A Seat on the Aisle

EXODUS
April 1-9, 2022
The Tarkington
After several delays due to the pandemic, GHDT's masterpiece, EXODUS returned to The
Tarkington. Another critically acclaimed piece, EXODUS is a cautionary tale inspired by the
Book of Exodus but set in the modem world and addressing our contemporary plagues.
GHDT's presentation of EXODUS, which opened last evening at The Tarkington in Carmel,
Indiana, is a divine mixture of imagery and symbolism —punctuated with impactful
choreography by Gregory Glade Hancock. To tell the Biblical story ofpersecution and
redemption, Mr. Hancock uses an immense company of dancers from all over Indiana, filling the
stage with movement and emotion. Capped by music by a wide array of artists, the resulting
production moving, evocative, beautifully rendered, and sensational to see and hear.
Going to a GHDT event is a huge treat for Central Indiana theatre lovers. Impressive stories,
told expressively through movement, boldly costumed and choreographed, with finely skilled
dance performances which leave us breathless, are without doubt one of the best theatre
offerings of our region, and EXODUS can take its place among the best of GHDT programs. "
Ken Klingenmeier — A Seat on the Aisle
The overall program is thrilling, stunning, and inspiring — the effective telling on an epic story
without a single word. Let this be an encouragement to see whatever you can attend by GHDT
next up is an adaptation of Antony and Cleopatra in June), and insistence to experience
EXODUS" the next time it is revived.

The World Premiere of ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA paired the talents of GHDT Artistic
Director, Gregory Glade Hancock, and composer Cory Gabel. Antony and Cleopatra is a
contemporary adaptation of the classic tale which explores the complex, interpersonal
relationships of the characters.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 6D6D823E-F9F7-4AB2-B44D-18D8EA21DFAE
As is usual, whether the dance is solo, duet, or an ensemble piece, the GHDT dancers are
amazing to watch as they present Mr. Hancock's innovative and interesting choreography with
polished proficiency. And the impressive music provided by the talents of Mr. Gabel runs the
gamut from lovely ballad to high energy romp. The combined package of imaginative dance,
expressive score and energetic dance performances makes this new piece a highly successful
endeavor for all involved. GHDT always provides a thrilling experience for their audiences, and
I would recommend that this show be put on your calendar — quickly. "

GHDT'S 25th SEASON CELEBRATION
August 26-27, 2022
The Tarkington
The kickoff program of a season of concerts celebrating the company's 25 h Season, the concert
featured classic repertoire pieces (many which had not been presented in years), The Rapture,
Cuervo, The Corn Maidens, Monday Morning, Dirait-on and The Birth of the Gods.
My first encounter with Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre was in July 2019 when Mrs. K and I
attended LA CASA AZUL - The Musical at Phoenix Theatre. I was blown away by the story,
based on the life of artist, Frida Kahlo — but especially the artistry: the music, the choreography,
and the costuming — all the work of Gregory Glade Hancock. Since then, I have wanted to never
miss a production by his company.
Reflecting on the company's celebration, I came away with a new appreciation for Mr. Hancock
and his company. It seems Gregory Hancock has been creating impressive works for a very long
time. Ifind his choreography to be varied, complex, expressive, and interesting. His costume
designs are stunning and indicative.
Lastly, the stories he invokes into his productions are well -imagined and well -constructed, so
that his talented performers unfailingly do magical work onstage. Bravo to Gregory and his
ensemble of dancers, and congratulations on this 25th Anniversary. "
THE CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS GALA

Gregory Hancock collaborated with Michael Feinstein, who performed songs of George and Ira

THE GRAND OPENING OF THE FLORENCE

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME
October 28-29, 20_2_ _2
The Tarkington
Back by request, Gregory Hancock's autobiographical full-length contemporary ballet,
THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME, an original work created by Executive Artistic Director
Gregory Hancock, brings to the stage an emotional, beautiful, and truth -seeking story about a
boy from Kansas who sets out on a journey down the Golden Path to India. Looking for meaning
and purpose in life after devasting losses and challenges, he encounters deities from the Hindu
pantheon who impart wisdom, compassion, and courage. Through the blending of cultural
themes, theatrical dance and unique music, THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME transported the
audience through a maze of inspirational experiences ultimately discovering that home is really a
place in the heart.
Gregory Hancock premieres another masterpiece. The combination of music, costumes,
lighting, and sound in Hancock's work made for a sensory experience that was, at times,
staggering, yet left me feeling I had witnessed a theatre event that was truly astonishing in its
breadth and scope. To say that Hancock is a risk -taker and visionary is an understatement. Add
to that a cultural ambassador for all he has done to educate, inform and inspire audiences, as he
builds bridges of understanding through his art, world view and sensibilities that benefit us all. "
Tom Alvarez - On the Aisle with Tom Alvarez
The piece is illuminating. We've all experienced loss, we've all gone on journeys ofself-
discovery — so while Gregory Hancock is being specific and vulnerable about his own
experiences, they are relatable to everyone. The expressive and magnificently talented dancers
tell the story fluidly. The original artwork of Madhuchhanda Mandal creates a breathtaking
backdrop, the lighting design of Ryan Koharchik elevates the production at every turn, and most
especially, the costume designed and built by Hancock himself, stun, a towering achievement
well worth the price of admission on its own.
The best theatre is transporting. It not only takes us to a differentplace, it makes us want to be better
versions of ourselves. There's No Place Like Home reminds us of the transforming power of
journeyingand inspires soul-searching. ". — Carrie Neal — A Seat on the Aisle The
result is a tour de force art piece, rendered in dance, color, and emotion. It is, without doubt,
one of the most gorgeous theatre offerings I have ever seen. As lucky as we are to have the
plethora of unbelievably fine theatre in our community, this is indeed rare stuff. ' — Ken Klingenmeier —

In 2022, expenses were well managed with overall costs being held to budgeted numbers.
Salaries slightly exceeded budget due to strong casting needs for large productions. Guest artist
expenses were also required. Overall, administrative expenses were held to a minimum to focus
on artistic salaries and production quality. Target marketing practices were implemented, and
budget numbers were adhered to. GHDT was frugal with expenditures in 2022 while focusing on
regaining revenue. Although a slight rebound after Covid, concert attendance and admissions
income were down from budget as patrons slowly made their way back to the theatre. GHDT ran
dual giving campaigns early in the year — operating and capital campaign. Donations for
operating were off from budget as some donors traded to capital project giving. Actual overall
income did not meet budget in 2022.
In 2022, GHDT continued to efficiently run an arts organization on a limited budget. GHDT was
able to provide high caliber, artistic productions to its audience, while minimizing costs. GHDT
demonstrated financial sustainability through conservative and creative planning to meet
economic challenges. The Executive Artistic Director and Board of Directors have been able to
effectively keep the organization in the black since its inception.
