Cities, schools, and nonprofits are eligible for National Endowment for the Arts grants for arts initiatives and events.
The NEA is committed to supporting excellent arts projects for the benefit of all Americans. Activities funded through Grants for Arts Projects enable Americans nationwide to experience the arts, foster and celebrate America’s artistic heritage and cultural legacy, and benefit from arts education at all stages of life. We also support arts and health programs, including creative arts therapies, that advance the well-being of people and communities.
Eligible disciplines include visual and media arts, folk and traditional arts, literary arts, opera, museums, local arts agencies, dance, presenting and multidisciplinary works, music, arts education, theater and musical theater, design, and Challenge America.
