Explore SAA Grant Making
State arts agency grant-making data, as provided to NASAA through Final Descriptive Reports, has always been a powerful source for describing a major component of the work conducted by state arts agencies. NASAA’s Grant Making page provides key facts on state arts agency grant-making functions, such as:
- General Operating Support
- Support for Individual Artists
- Support for Arts Education
- Support for Arts in Rural Communities
- Support for Local Arts Agencies
Along with these recently updated fact sheets, a new interactive Grant-Making Explorer provides trends by state for total dollars awarded, operating support, individual artists and arts education. Dynamic charts allow visitors to view trends for each state or for the nation as a whole.
As always, members can request custom benchmarking reports or data visualizations comparing their agency’s funding and grant making over time or against their peers.
