The Regional Regranting Program was established in 2007 to recognize and support the movement of independently organized, public-facing, artist-centered activity that animates local and regional art scenes but that lies beyond the reach of traditional funding sources.
The program is administered by non-profit visual art centers across the United States that work in partnership with the Foundation to fund artists’ experimental projects and collaborative undertakings. Since its inception, the Regional Regranting Program has grown steadily, adding new cities and regions to its national network each year.
When COVID-19 hit in 2020 the Foundation doubled the number of regranting partners in its network in order to provide emergency funds to more artists in more regions. Together these programs have supported well over 1,000 independent art projects in the past ten years, granting more than 4. 7 million dollars.

NEA's FY2027 Partnership Agreement Grants (2027NEA04PA) put $59 million into 56 state arts agencies with a September 29, 2026 deadline. No individual arts nonprofit can apply. But this is the channel through which most NEA dollars actually reach small organizations — and the supplanting rule and 1-to-1 state cost share determine how much reaches yours.
Read articleOn August 26, 2026, the NEA, NEH and IMLS jointly rescinded the disparate-impact provisions of 45 CFR Part 1110.
