NEA Announces Challenge America Fast-Track Grants
The National Endowment for the Arts is to distribute 136 “fast track†grants of $10,000 each. Part of the “’Challenge America Reaching Every Community Fast-track grant programâ€, the $1,360,000 will be shared among mostly small and mid-sized organizations for projects that extend the reach of the arts to underserved populations -- those whose opportunities to experience the arts are limited by geography, ethnicity, economics, or disability. National Endowment for the Arts Deputy Chairman for Grants and Awards Tony Chauveaux said, "Providing broad access to the arts is key to the NEA's work. This program provides opportunities for people in communities as diverse as Aliceville, Alabama and San Francisco, California to participate in arts events." The announcement was made approximately six months after the applications were received, as opposed to the usual nine-month review process.
