About the company
Charlotte Mecklenburg Afro-American Cultural And Service Center Inc., operating as Harvey B. Gantt Center For African-American Arts+Culture, is a Charlotte, North Carolina–based minority-owned nonprofit that receives federal grant funding for museum collections management, exhibition infrastructure, and youth arts programming. The organization operates exclusively as a federal grant recipient (100% of recent awards are prime grants) and does not hold federal contracts or contract vehicles.
The Gantt Center's recent grant portfolio centers on museum collections stewardship and community arts access. The Institute of Museum and Library Services has funded three awards: a $100,000 project grant (September 2026–August 2027) to conduct inventory and conditions assessment of off-site collection storage, hire a permanent full-time registrar, and implement a new collections management system; a July 2024–June 2026 award to migrate collections inventory into a new database and customize artifact storage; and a July 2023–September 2024 award to expand collection storage and install modular exhibition walls. The National Endowment for the Arts funded a June 2023–June 2024 grant supporting Envision Me, a music production and filmmaking program for youth at the center. The National Commission on Libraries and Information Science has placed three additional awards across the grant portfolio.
Federal grant funding is split evenly between the Institute of Museum and Library Services (3 awards) and the National Endowment for the Arts and National Commission on Libraries and Information Science (combined 4 awards). Combined dollars obligated across all ten federal awards total $1.6 million. Recent activity is sparse: one award per year in 2023–2024 and one in 2026, with a gap in 2025. One award (the current IMLS grant) faces completion within the next twenty-four months and will trigger recompete. The organization does not operate as a prime contractor or federal subcontractor and has no role in federal contract vehicles.
