DescriptionThe Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art is dedicated to connecting the public with great works of art. Annually, the Nelson-Atkins welcomes in excess of 350,000 visitors to explore it's encyclopedic collection of nearly 34,000 art objects spanning 5,000 years. Free admission to the Museum's collection allows for hundreds of free public programs each year that give people a wide range of opportunities to interact with art. Over 58,000 students and adults from Missouri, Kansas and other nearby states participate in school and group tours of the Nelson-Atkins each year. Curators focus on studying our collection, enhancing it through gifts and purchases, loaning works from our collection to other institutions to enhance the public's understanding of a particular artist or topic and they organize exhibitions for the Nelson-Atkins' galleries that are both collection and thematically developed. Each year at least three major featured exhibitions are held in large galleries dedicated to rotating or traveling exhibitions. In addition, three exhibitions are held annually in our photography galleries. Rotations of works on paper and textiles in our European collection is ongoing, giving visitors something new to see each time they visit. Approximately 500 volunteers assist and support the Museum annually by giving of their time and intellect. This includes docents and Museum guides who are rigorously trained by our education and curatorial staff to guide and interpret our collection for visitors. The institution-wide transformation of the Nelson-Atkins, including the 165,000 square foot Bloch Building and renovation of the original 1933 Nelson-Atkins Building, continues with the completion of renovations to the American Indian Gallery in November of 2009 and the Egyptian Gallery in April of 2010.Description

Text of Note to Financial StatementsSchedule D, Part III, Line 1aIn conformity with accounting policies generally followed by art museums, the collections, which were acquired through purchases by the trustees and contributions since the inception, are not recognized as assets on the combined statements of financial position. Purchases of collection items are recorded as decreases in unrestricted net assets in the year in which the items are acquired or as decreases in temporarily or permanently restricted net assets if the assets used to purchase the items were restricted by donors. Contributed collection items are not reflected on the combined financial statements. Proceeds from deaccessions are reflected as increases in permanently restricted net assets.
CollectionSchedule D, Part III, Line 4The Museum's comprehensive permanent collection spans 5,000 years and numbers nearly 34,000 objects. The Asian art collection (9,846 works) is among the finest in the world by virtue of its size, depth and overall level of quality. The outstanding ancient art collection numbers 865 objects with masterpieces from ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt and the classical world. The decorative arts collection contains 5,416 works and includes both European and American holdings. The European painting and sculpture collection (853 works) is of fine quality throughout. Some of the world-class masterpieces are works by Bernardo Daddi, Petrus Christus, Jan Gossaert, Lucas Cranach, Bronzino, Caravaggio and Gaetano Gandolfi. The 19th-century paintings include major impressionist and post-impressionist works by Monet, van Gogh and Cezanne. The American art department includes 611 paintings and sculptures with superb portraits by Copley, Stuart, Sargent and Eakins and landscapes by major 18th- and 19th-century painters such as Cole, Church, Heade and Kensett. The modern and contemporary art collection includes important works from the early 20th-century to the present, including seven Noguchi sculptures. The American Indian art collection of 2,233 objects is particularly strong in southwest Navajo and Northwest Coast material. The African art holdings include 204 objects. The works on paper (prints and drawings) collection totals 5,948 works. The Museum's photography collection contains approximately 8,466 items. The collection provides a panoramic vision of its subject, with an emphasis on American photography, from the invention of the medium in 1839 to the present. The Museum is also the home of the 20-acre Kansas City sculpture park which includes the largest collection of Henry Moore sculptures outside England. Currently 7.8% of the Museum's collections are on display at any given time, with an additional 2% exhibited annually through collection rotation. Any work of art not on view is available for research, unless its condition precludes this use.
Use of endowment fundsSchedule D, Part V, Line 4Endowments are in place to support specific education programs, exhibitions, collections administration, acquisitions and operations.
Other expenditures for facilities/programsSchedule D, Part V, Line 1eFrom time to time, the Foundation receives additional information from donors that provides more specific direction or changes the donors' intentions regarding the use of gifts. During 2011, the Foundation reclassified $10.8 million out of endowment funds. This amount is included within the "other expenditures for facilities/program" line.

Use of third parties to process or sell noncash contributionsSchedule M, Part I, Line 32bAuction houses, or occasionally dealers, are used to sell works deaccessioned from the collections. These works include gifts and bequests as well as purchases. A curator identifies a work for possible deaccession. If the Director/CEO approves deaccessioning the work, the curator contacts auction houses or dealers to get sale estimates. The curator recommends an auction house or dealer to the Director/CEO. The curator prepares a Deaccession Proposal and presents the work to the Committee on the Collections (COC). The COC has the authority to approve deaccessions with an estimated sale value of less than $25,000. The Board of Trustees must approve deaccessions with estimated sale values of $25,000 or more. The Director/CEO signs the auction house's or dealer's consignment agreement. Sale proceeds are restricted to the purchase of works in the same curatorial area.

Reason for AmendingDuring the fiscal year 05/01/08 04/30/09 a work of art was donated to the Nelson Gallery Foundation but not properly included in the Form 990. A Form 8283, Noncash Charitable Contributions, was appropriately completed during that year. Based on a confidentiality clause in the gift agreement the receipt of this gift was not communicated and therefore inadvertently not reported on the 990. Upon review it was determined that Form 990 Schedules A, D, M and O should be amended for the fiscal years 05/01/08 04/30/09 through 05/01/10 04/30/11. Description of Practices re: Documentation of Mtgs & Actions of Committees Form 990, Part VI, Question 8b The Executive Committee of the Board does not maintain minutes of their meetings. The remaining committees (Audit, Buildings & Grounds, Collections, Development, Education, Finance & Investment) generate and approve minutes of their meetings.
Describe the Process used by Management &/or Governing Body to Review 990Initial compilation of the information for the return is completed by Finance Department staff with review by Director, Finance and subsequent review by the Chief Operation Officer prior to transmission to accounting firm for return preparation. Upon receipt of completed return and review by Director, Finance the return will be provided to the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Office, Audit Committee, and to all Trustees for review prior to filing.Form 990, Part VI, Question 11B
Disclosure of interests that could give rise to conflictFor the fiscal year ending 04/30/2011 the Museum did not require a written annual disclosure addressing conflicts of interest. The Museum has developed a more detailed Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Policy which becomes effective in the year ending 04/30/2012. This new policy requires the completion of a written questionnaire by each director, officer, member of a committee with Board-delegated powers and key employee, on an annual basis beginning in the fiscal year ending 04/30/2012. The questionnaire addresses each individuals acknowledgement of the receipt of the Code of Conduct and Conflict of Interest Policy and their compliance with it, along with requiring responses to detailed questions relating to specific areas that could raise a conflict.Form 990, Part VI, Question 12b
Offices & Positions for Which Process was Used, & Year Process was BegunThe Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees reviews the compensation and employee benefits of the Director and other senior staff member of the Museum. This same committee also reviews the scheme for compensation and benefits of all other Museum employees. A variety of salary survey information is provided by the Director of Human Resources during this process including surveys by American Association of Museum Directors, Midwest Museum Survey, Human Resource Management Association and Cultural Institution Survey.Form 990, Part VI, Questions 15a and 15b

DESCRIPTION OF PURPOSE OF BOND ISSUEADDITIONAL DESCRIPTION OF PURPOSE: Line A: Finance costs of improvements and additions to the Museum and to pay interest during construction, the premium on the bond insurance policy and other costs related to the issuance of the bonds. Line B: Refund $85,000,000 2001B Series, issued on 12/06/2001, and finance costs of improvements and additions to the Museum and to pay interest during construction, the premium on the bond insurance policy and other costs related to the issuance of the bonds. Line C: Refund $33,595,000 2001A Series, issued on 12/06/2001. Total proceeds of issue: Schedule K, Part II, Question 3, Columns A and B Amount is not equal to issue price. The difference is due to interest earnings during the project period. Other Spent Proceeds: Schedule K, Part II, Question 11, Column B Bond proceeds and other funds of the Museum were used to finance projects for the museum. The amount listed will be allocated based on the Museum's final allocation, which will be completed in the next fiscal year. Year of substantial completion: Schedule K, Part II, Question 13, Column C Not all projects have been substantially completed. Management Policies & Procedures: Schedule K, Part III, Line 7 In the current fiscal year the Museum relied on the Tax Compliance Agreement for each bond issue as the policy and procedures to ensure post-issuance tax-exempt compliance for that bond issue. The Museum is working on a comprehensive set of policies and procedures to ensure post-issuance tax-exempt compliance to be adopted during the next fiscal year.SCHEDULE K, PART I, COLUMN (F)
