In plain English
The National Endowment for the Arts Partnership Agreement grants go to the nation's state and jurisdictional arts agencies and the six regional arts organizations. Eligibility is narrow: only state governments and 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than higher-education institutions) qualify, and in practice these awards are made to the designated state arts agencies and regional arts organizations. Awards range from about $400,000 to $2.5M. This is not a general-purpose grant for individual nonprofits or arts groups.
