The Grant Robot is HERE!NEA Media Arts on Radio Television FY 2010 CFDA 45.024
Through this category the National Endowment for the Arts seeks to make the excellence and diversity of the arts widely available to the American public through nationally distributed television and radio programs. Grants are available to support the development, production, and national distribution of radio and television programs on the arts. Priority will be given to artistically excellent programs that have the potential to reach a significant national audience, regardless of the size or geographic location of the applicant organization. Only programs of artistic excellence and merit, in both the media production and the subject, will be funded. strongApplications are now due September 3, 2009./strongbr /span class=”fullpost”br /br /Projects may include high profile multi-part television and radio series, single documentaries, performance programs, or arts segments for use within an existing series. Programs may deal with any art form (e.g., visual arts, music, dance, literature, design, theater, musical theater, opera, film/video/audio art, folk amp; traditional arts). Programs targeted to children and youth are welcome. All phases of a project — research and development, production, completion and distribution costs — are eligible for support. We welcome proposals that include ancillary activities that are intended to increase public knowledge, understanding, and access to the arts. Such activities might include the use of related radio and television programming; interactive Web sites; DVDs or other digital applications; educational material; collaborations with arts organizations, educators, and community groups; video/audio distribution to schools, libraries, and homes; and other public outreach activities.br /br /We Do Not Fund Under these guidelines, funding is not available for: Direct grants to individuals.

This information is compiled and reported to Congress and the public. The outcome the Arts Endowment intends to achieve through the Arts on Radio and Television category is: br /br /Audiences throughout the nation have opportunities to experience a wide range of art forms and activities.br /br /Within the context of this outcome, we ask all applicants to define what they would like to achieve, how they will assess the degree to which it is achieved, and, upon completion of the project, what they have learned from their successes and failures. This need not entail large-scale or expensive evaluation. Applicants should do what is feasible and appropriate for their organization and project. When a grant is completed, grantees must submit a final report and answer questions on their achievements and how they were gauged. Additional information about outcome-based evaluation may be found in the Outcomes Toolkit.br /br /strongEligible Applicants/strongbr /State governmentsbr /County governmentsbr /City or township governmentsbr /Special district governmentsbr /Independent school districtsbr /Public and State controlled institutions of higher educationbr /Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized)br /Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher educationbr /Private institutions of higher educationbr /br /Document Type: Grants Noticebr /Funding Opportunity Number: 2009NEA01ARTVbr /Opportunity Category: Discretionarybr /Posted Date: May 11, 2009br /Creation Date: May 11, 2009br /Original Closing Date for Applications: Sep 03, 2009 br /Current Closing Date for Applications: Sep 03, 2009 Applicants are required to submit their applications electronically through Grants.gov, the federal government’s online application system.
