State Arts Agency Grant-making Facts

State arts agency grant-making data, as provided to NASAA through Final Descriptive Reports, are an important source for describing ways in which state arts agencies serve the public. Updated periodically, NASAA’s Grant Making page provides key facts on state arts agency grant-making functions, including:

Along with these recently updated fact sheets, an interactive Grant-Making Explorer shows trends by state for total dollars awarded, operating support, individual artists, arts education, grantee institution and discipline types. Dynamic charts allow you 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.
