The National Endowment for the Arts has announced their latest initiative -- American Masterpieces--Presents. This program will allow presenters the opportunity to do what they do best - design and create their own program for consideration as an American Masterpiece. We encourage presenting organizations of all sizes, genres and aesthetics to apply including: networks of presenters, college or university presenters, local/national/regional presenters, and national service organizations and their networks.
This is a unique opportunity under the Presenting category and, if you already apply to Learning in the Arts, Challenge America - Fast Track, or Access to Artistic Excellence, this affords your organization an additional opportunity to receive project funding. The details of the program are located at www.arts.gov/grants
The deadline is October 1, 2007. We anticipate that between 30 and 40 grants will be recommended for funding. The grants will range from 10K to 100K.
