About the company
American Jazz Museum, Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Kansas City, receives federal grant funding for music education programming, archives digitization, and public cultural events as a direct recipient of project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) and the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The organization does not hold federal contracts or operate as a subcontractor; all thirteen awards in its federal footprint are prime grants spanning museum operations, jazz education, and collections management.
The vendor's customer concentration is heavily weighted toward arts and cultural agencies. The National Endowment for the Arts accounts for eight awards across the recent period, primarily supporting jazz festival programming in 2023 and 2024, and a music education initiative announced in 2026. The Institute of Museum and Library Services accounts for two awards focused on the digitization, cataloging, and public access of the John H. Baker Film Collection, a historic archive of over 2,000 film titles spanning 1927 through the 1970s. The National Commission on Libraries and Information Science accounts for three awards. Combined potential value across all thirteen awards is $2.1 million obligated over the past five years.
Recent representative work includes a $319,683 IMLS Museum Grants for African American History and Culture award (CFDA 45.309) announced on October 1, 2025, with completion targeted for September 30, 2027. That project funds inventory, cataloging, and digitization of the John H. Baker Film Collection and twelve public film screenings with expert presentations for older adults, high school students, and the general public. An NEA project grant announced January 1, 2026 supports staff salaries and teaching artist fees for the Kansas City Jazz Academy, a music education program for students, running through December 31, 2026. A prior IMLS project grant awarded July 1, 2022 similarly funded assessment, inventory, cataloging, and partial digitization of the film collection, with educational programming developed in partnership with local higher-education institutions.
Activity has remained flat at roughly one award per year since 2022. Two awards reach ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months, presenting renewal and recompete opportunities with NEA and IMLS.
