About this opportunity
The National Endowment for the Arts is soliciting applications for domestic indemnity coverage of U.S.-owned artworks and artifacts exhibited within the United States, with applications due December 7, 2026. Eligible applicants are 501(c)(3) nonprofits, state and local governments, federally recognized tribal entities, higher education institutions (public and private), independent school districts, and city, county, and township governments. The program provides indemnification against loss or damage to eligible works borrowed for temporary exhibitions, backed by the full faith and credit of the United States; in the event of loss or damage, the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities must certify claims and request Congressional authorization for payment. Applicants are responsible for packing, shipping, security, and condition reports maintained for 90 days beyond the indemnity period's end. The Federal Council makes final award decisions based on recommendations from consulting panels of field professionals. The timeline between application and notification depends on Federal Council meeting schedules. Requests for extensions and renewals must compete against new applications in subsequent rounds. The program operates under CFDA 45.201 (Arts and Artifacts Indemnity). Applicants must consult guidelines at arts.gov and are strongly encouraged to contact the Indemnity Administrator prior to submission. A second FY2027 Domestic Indemnity track has a June 7, 2027 due date.
