To support arts programs services and activities associated with carrying out the agency's national endowment for the arts-approved strategic plan

This Project Grant award from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) provides $1,062,600 to the Massachusetts Cultural Council through June 30, 2023 under the NEA's Promotion of the Arts Partnership Agreements program (CFDA 45.025). The funding supports arts programs, services, and activities carried out under the NEA-approved strategic plans of the Council and its eleven sub-awardees across Massachusetts. Sub-awardees include well-known cultural institutions like the Huntington Theatre Company, New England Aquarium, Museum of Science, Massachusetts Audubon Society, and Museum of Fine Arts, which will use the funding to deliver arts and cultural programs and services to Massachusetts residents and visitors. The Partnership Agreements program aims to develop partnerships between the NEA and state arts agencies to advance the NEA's mission. This award exemplifies such a partnership to promote arts programming in Massachusetts.
