Grants for Local Arts Projects – Due July 19

National Endowment for the Arts grants to USA and territories nonprofit organizations, agencies, and tribal entities for arts initiatives and events. Applicants are advised that required registrations may take several weeks to complete. Eligible disciplines include media arts, dance, design, musical theater, arts education, artist communities, folk and traditional arts, literary arts, local arts agencies, media arts, museums, music, opera, presenting and multidisciplinary works, and visual arts.

Learn more about eligible artistic disciplines.

A project may consist of one or more specific events or activities; it may be a new initiative or part of your organization’s regular season or activities. Organizations that undertake a single short-term program in a year could apply for that event, or they could identify certain components (such as the presentation of a particular artist and the associated activities) as their project. Organizations may apply for any or all phases of a project, from its planning through its implementation.
