About the company
Jacob Burns Film Center, Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Pleasantville, New York, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants supporting curated film programming, public screenings, and arts education, with all funding routed through the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). The organization does not hold federal contracts and has never acted as a subrecipient; its federal footprint consists exclusively of project grants from cultural and education agencies.
The NEA dominates the vendor's customer base, accounting for 24 of 26 total awards (92% of recent activity). The remaining two awards derive from the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Department of Education's Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. Combined federal dollars obligated across the entire award history total $2.9 million, spanning from 2008 to the present.
Jacob Burns Film Center's grant work centers on curated film screenings, public programming, and artist development. Representative recent awards include a January 2026 NEA project grant to support staff salaries for a series of curated films and associated public programming in recognition of America's 250th Anniversary (completion December 2026); a January 2025 NEA project grant for curated film screenings and youth-focused screening programming (completion May 2025); a June 2023 NEA project grant supporting a pre-professional screenwriting and film production program for high school students (completion May 2024); and a June 2022 NEA project grant for the Creative Culture Fellowship Program serving artists working in film, video, and new media (completion May 2023). Awards vary by annual grant cycle; the organization received two awards in each of 2022 and 2023, one each in 2024 and 2025, and one in 2026. One award is scheduled for ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
The organization's federal portfolio reflects a specialized, sustained relationship with the NEA's arts and culture funding streams rather than diversified federal customer development. As a tax-exempt nonprofit, Jacob Burns Film Center operates outside the federal contractor competitive space and does not pursue set-aside or full-and-open federal procurement vehicles.
