Operating Budget
Project details
What we need
- A detailed Operating Budget covering at least one full fiscal year
- Expert advice on how to reconcile actual expenses with budgeted expenses
What we have in place
- We currently have a 3-year budget, ending this year, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have financial statements and 990 forms for all our years in operation, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $9,114 , allowing us to publish and mentor 100 Massachusetts teen artists and writers in 2015, who have limited access to the arts.
The success of our organization depends on a detailed, comprehensive budget. Without your help, we cannot fully communicate what we do to funders. Your skills will empower us to secure funding to publish and mentor 100 teens in 2015.

Our mission
Our Mission
The Marble Collection (TMC) cultivates creativity and excellence in the arts by engaging teen artists and writers in a publication process that affirms their voices and deepens their learning.
Our Vision
TMC envisions a community that cultivates young artists and writers, in which we are the leading publisher and advocate of creative work by teens.
What we do
We believe that the literary and visual arts should be an integral part of every teen’s life. To fulfill our mission, we publish the Massachusetts High School Magazine of the Arts, a juried, professional-quality publication, and the only Massachusetts’ statewide print and online magazine of the arts featuring artwork, photography, poetry, and writing by students in grades 8 to 12. TMC’s commitment to published teens does not end when they are selected for publication. We offer one-to-one Student Mentoring Workshops, in which teens are paired with college student mentors, who help them refine their voices and revise their work for publication with constructive, editorial feedback.
In our workshops teens explore the creative process through self and peer reflection, and ultimately learn to describe their work and convey its meaning to audiences at our annual magazine release gala, Spring into Art. Teens also have the opportunity to sell their artwork on our e-Gallery and to become part of a community of artists, writers and advocates through our online alumni networks. TMC’s alumni networks serve as a vehicle for creativity and a platform for teens to advocate for the arts in their own schools and towns and continue to share artistic, college and career opportunities.
