Your goals, objectives, and activities paint a picture of an organization that is pro-actively networking to revitalize its community roots. That's impressive.  Thank you for making it clear that your affiliation with the more traditional arts -- particularly painting and music -- is longstanding.  Are you planning to strengthen that affiliation as you develop new events (e.g., including an exhibit of miniature paintings, a concert of short pieces of music, or a contest of haiku compositions/readings to launch the Bonsai Festival)?  Are you educating people about horticulture / gardening as an art form?

Thank you for the vivid description of the Gardens in your impact narrative. This makes the forward motion of the organization clear, and illustrates your mission.

There are shift points in your budget that would be interesting to have explained -- e.g., the ~40% of the expenses grouped on line 9 (remaining operating expenses) and big increase on line 15 (private support).  Notes in "Fiscal Condition" narrative could clarify these obscure sections.

E: Very ambitious 18-19 goals - achievability is questionable; despite length and volume lacks specificity in places.

I: Impact appears to be a catchall space for the Gardens' narrative history and other info; appropriate demographic reach and opportunity to individual ratio.

M: Strong history; superb partnerships that enable a great deal for this organization.

A: Very good.

On your ADA / 504 compliance review do you have accommodations or plans for visual impaired and hearing impaired visitors?

You list a number of objectives for the organization. I am looking for objectives that describe the impact of the program on visitors and community.
