| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 4 | The Organization's Articles of Agreement were amended in May 2023. The previously effective Articles of Agreement were adopted in 1985. As the Organization amended its bylaws in January 2023, the Articles were accordingly updated to bring them into alignment with the newest and effective bylaws. As the changes to the bylaws occurred in January 2023, any such significant changes to those governing documents were disclosed on the prior year Form 990 for the period ending March 31, 2023. Significant changes and amendments to the Articles of Agreement, as revised and effective this filing period (May 2023, within this tax year ending March 31, 2024), were as follows: 1. The amended Articles update the name of the Organization to match the name as reported on its filed tax return: The League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, Inc. 2. The amended Articles updated the purpose and mission statement of the Organization to read as follows: The purpose for which the Corporation is established is to promote the arts in New Hampshire by fostering the creation of handcrafted objects of aesthetic and functional value by: (A) Providing education and training in the creation of such objects; and (B) Expanding the knowledge and enhancing the appreciation of fine craft objects by the public. 3. The amended Articles revised the narrative for how, when, and why the Organization's assets are to be distributed upon dissolution. The current dissolution doctrine states that in the event of the dissolution of the League, the League's assets shall be distributed to such organization(s) as the Board of Directors shall determine appropriate, provided such organization(s) is/are exempt under Section 501(c)(3) and that such recipient-organization is able to adequately carry on the exempt purpose of the League. 4. The amended Articles formally establish conditions of membership and the composition of the Board of Directors, to bring the bylaws into parity with the recently revised bylaws. Specifically, the amended Articles state that Membership in the League shall be open to all persons. The determination of classes of membership and the eligibility, benefits, responsibilities, and privileges of membership, shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors. 5. The amended Articles stipulate that the Board shall consist of not fewer than 11 nor more than 19 persons. The amended Articles establish the conditions and compositions by which individuals may fill these positions. 6. The amended Articles stipulate that each Director-at-Large shall serve for a term of three years, or until a successor is elected, and that no less than six Directors-at-Large shall be elected in any one year except as necessary to fill a vacancy. 7. The amended Articles establish that the Board of Directors shall be authorized to adopt and amend the Organization's bylaws as deemed fit to carry on the Organization's exempt purpose. 8. The amended Articles explicitly names each type of officer that may serve on the Board (Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, and Treasurer), and establishes that such officers must be members of the League and be elected to the officer-position by members of the League. The 9. The amended Articles establish that election to the Board of Directors shall be based on nominations made to the nominating committee or by petition signed by at least 10 voting members, and that Directors shall be elected by then-current voting members in good standing. 10. The amended Articles establish that a quorum at any special or the annual meeting of the League shall consist of at least twenty-five voting members. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 6 | The membership of the Organization shall consist of the juried artists and supporting members. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7a | The membership of the Organization shall consist of the juried artists and supporting members, and the elected members of the Board of Directors are either juried or supporting members; a Director's terms begin upon annual election by membership. Appointments to fill vacancies do not constitute a term. The Board of Directors elect the Board's Officers and determines who to hire or release as the Organization's Executive Director. Aside from non-Director members who may serve on nominating or executive committees (who may provide input but who may not vote), non-Director members do not influence Officer or Exectuve appointments. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section A, line 7b | The membership of the Organization shall consist of the juried artists and supporting members, and the elected members of the Board of Directors are either juried or supporting members. Non-Director members cannot vote directly on Board governance or operational decisions. However, non-Director members may serve on and provide input through the Organization's various committees, including its Finance Committee, Education Committee, Events Committee, Advance Committee, Standards Committee, and the Juried Members Advisory Forum. Accordingly, through their ability to both elect the Board of Directors and to serve on the key operational and organizational committees, the membership of the Organization may from time-to-time influence or provide direction for the Organization's governance decisions. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 11b | The League of New Hampshire Craftsmen's Form 990 is prepared by an indpendent public accounting firm with the assistance of the organization's financial staff. The Board of Trustees reviews Form 990 before it is filed with the Internal Revenue Service. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 12c | The organization's bylaws require that all board members and officers disclose any potential conflicts of interest and recuse themselves from voting on any matters where they may have a conflict of interest. Any new board members or officers are advised of this policy upon entering their duties of office. The organization's employee handbook states that all employees are required to disclose any potential conflicts of interest. All new employees are required to sign a statement when they are hired that they have read and understand the employee handbook. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section B, line 15a | The Executive Director's compensation is set, reviewed, and approved by the board of trustees. |
| Form 990, Part VI, Section C, line 19 | The organization makes its governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements available to the public upon request. |
| Form 990, Part XII, Line 2c: | The audit process has not changed from the prior year. |
