Facts And Circumstances Test
THE ORGANIZATION HAS ELECTED TO UTILIZE THE FACTS-AND-CIRCUMSTANCES TEST AS THE DETERMINING FACTOR TO BE A QUALIFYING PUBLIC CHARITY UNDER SECTION 1.170A-9(E)(3) FOR THE TAX YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021. THE AUTRY MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAN WEST (THE "AUTRY") AROSE IN ITS PRESENT FORM FROM THE MERGER IN 2003 OF THE THEN AUTRY MUSEUM OF WESTERN HERITAGE (FOUNDED IN 1984 AND OPENED IN 1988) WITH THE SOUTHWEST MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN FOUNDED IN 1907) AND WITH THE WOMEN OF THE WEST MUSEUM (FOUNDED IN 1991). THE AUTRY IS DEDICATED TO EXPLORING AND SHARING THE STORIES, EXPERIENCES, AND PERCEPTIONS OF THE DIVERSE PEOPLES OF THE AMERICAN WEST, CONNECTING THE PAST TO THE PRESENT TO INSPIRE A SHARED FUTURE. THE AUTRY'S COLLECTIONS OF MORE THAN 600,000 WORKS OF ART AND ARTIFACTS INCLUDE THE SOUTHWEST MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN COLLECTION, ONE OF THE LARGEST AND MOST SIGNIFICANT COLLECTIONS OF NATIVE AMERICAN MATERIALS IN THE UNITED STATES. PHILANTHROPY IS THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF REVENUE FOR THE AUTRY. FUNDRAISING INCOME IS REALIZED FROM GIFTS, GRANTS, SPECIAL EVENTS, AND MEMBERSHIPS AND IS RECEIVED FROM INDIVIDUALS, FOUNDATIONS, CORPORATIONS, AND GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. EARNED INCOME IS A SECONDARY REVENUE SOURCE FOR THE AUTRY AND IS REALIZED FROM ADMISSIONS, PROGRAMS, AND AUXILIARY SERVICES. THE ORGANIZATION HAS HISTORICALLY REPORTED PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGES IN EXCESS OF 33 1/3% PRIOR TO THE 2021 RETURN. THE ORGANIZATION CLEARLY IS ONE THAT IS SUPPORTED BY THE PUBLIC. LIKE MANY OTHER MUSEUMS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, IN 2020 AND 2021 THE AUTRY WAS SEVERELY IMPACTED BY THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND SUFFERED A SIGNIFICANT DECLINE IN BOTH FUNDRAISING AND EARNED INCOME. THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC RESULTED IN THE MUSEUM CLOSING FOR APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR STARTING IN MARCH 2020. WHILE IN-PERSON VISITS HAVE BOUNCED BACK FROM THEIR 2020 LOWS, MOST MUSEUMS HAVE SEEN SIGNIFICANTLY FEWER VISITORS IN 2021 THAN THEY DID BEFORE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. THIS IS DUE TO A COMBINATION OF FACTORS, INCLUDING THE LA COUNTY AND LA CITY CAPACITY RESTRICTIONS, THE HESITANCY OR INABILITY OF VISITORS AND STUDENTS TO RETURN TO IN-PERSON EXPERIENCES, AND STAFF SHORTAGES. THIS CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES RESULTED IN THE ORGANIZATION GENERATING A PUBLIC SUPPORT PERCENTAGE LESS THAN THE REQUIRED 33 1/3% UNDER SECTION 170(B)(1)(A)(VI) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. AS RESTRICTIONS HAVE BEEN LIFTED AND VACCINATIONS ARE MADE WIDELY AVAILABLE, THE ORGANIZATION HAS BEGUN PLANNING TO ENSURE INCREASED SUPPORT FROM THE PUBLIC WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE SAFETY OF THE PARTICIPATING PUBLIC. THESE PLANS INCLUDE A WIDE RANGE OF EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLIC PROGRAMS, INCLUDING LECTURES, FILMS, THEATER, MUSIC, AND FESTIVALS, AS WELL AS CONDUCT SCHOLARSHIP, RESEARCH, AND EDUCATIONAL OUTREACH. ACCORDING TO THE GUIDANCE ISSUED IN PRIVATE LETTER RULINGS XXX-XX-XXXX AND XXX-XX-XXXX, THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE WILL CONSIDER AN ORGANIZATION'S STRUCTURE, PROPOSED PROGRAMS OR ACTIVITIES, INTENDED METHOD OF OPERATION, AND PROJECTED SOURCES OF SUPPORT IN REACHING A DETERMINATION. WITH THE RESTRICTIONS RELATED TO THE PANDEMIC LIFTING, THE ORGANIZATION BELIEVES IT CAN REVERT TO ITS PRE-PANDEMIC PUBLIC SUPPORT AND CONTINUES TO TARGET THE GENERAL PUBLIC. GIVEN THESE FACTORS, DETERMINING WHETHER AN ORGANIZATION QUALIFIES FOR PUBLIC CHARITY STATUS UNDER SECTION 507(B)(1)(B)(I) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE IS BASED ON WHETHER THE ORGANIZATION CAN REASONABLY EXPECT TO SATISFY THE REQUIREMENTS. THE ORGANIZATION HAS ESTABLISHED THE PROCEDURES OUTLINED ABOVE TO THE EXTENT THAT ITS MEETING THE PUBLIC SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS IN THE SUCCEEDING TAX PERIODS CAN BE REASONABLY EXPECTED.
