All,

I'm doing some research on museums that have large performance spaces -- 500 seat to 1800- seat -- within the museum complex. Beside the Toledo Museum of Art, and a couple I know that have smaller venues, I'd appreciate any references for spaces that host both music performances, dance, lectures, etc.

Thanks!

In regard to your inquiry it's important to keep in mind an IRS requirement of income tax liability if the facility or usage of the space or facility to acquire revenue is not directly related to the mission statement of the 501(c)(3) as described in IRS documents.  Known as UBIT, many not-for-profits are not aware of the ramifications of non-compliance and increasing possible abuse of this non-compliance could result in an eventual increase in IRS scrutiny for 501(c)(3)'s as a whole group.
