About the company
Vocalessence, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is a federal grant recipient that receives project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts to support choral performance programming. The vendor operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards) with no federal contract prime or subcontractor activity.
Vocalessence's federal footprint is narrow and singular: all 24 awards in the source data are project grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the only customer agency served. Combined obligated dollars across the portfolio total $1.9 million. Recent grant work centers on the Witness Choral Performance Project, a recurring initiative that has drawn annual NEA project grants in 2022, 2023, 2025, and 2026 (each running January through June). A 2024 award supported a choral performance project featuring guest artist Melanie DeMore. The Witness project's stated purpose is to celebrate the contributions of African-Americans through choral performance.
Activity has remained flat at one award per year across 2022–2026, with the most recent award granted January 1, 2026, with ultimate completion scheduled for June 30, 2026. The vendor holds no position on federal contract vehicles, has not held prime contracts, and carries no subcontractor relationships. Vocalessence's federal engagement is grant-dependent and agency-dependent, with zero diversification across customer agencies or funding programs.
