About the company
The Ella Project Ella Project Division is a tax-exempt non-profit organization based in New Orleans, Louisiana, that operates as a prime recipient of federal grants from the National Endowment for the Arts supporting professional development and pro bono legal services for artists and arts organizations.
The Ella Project's federal footprint consists entirely of grant work — nine awards across the past several years, all from the National Endowment for the Arts. The vendor operates as a 100% prime recipient with no subcontract activity. Recent awards include project grants in 2026, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022, each carrying the same stated purpose of funding professional development and pro bono legal services. Combined potential value across all documented awards totals $230 thousand.
Customer concentration is singular: the National Endowment for the Arts represents 100% of awards. Activity has remained consistent at one award per year over the past five years, with most recent award dated January 1, 2026 (ultimate completion December 31, 2026). One award completes within the next twenty-four months and faces potential recompete.
The Ella Project holds no federal contract vehicles, prime contract awards, or subcontract positions — the organization's federal footprint is narrowly rooted in NEA grant programming for arts-sector capacity building and legal services. This positioning reflects a specialized mission rather than a broad federal contracting posture.
