The NEA offers grants through multiple programs including Art Works, Challenge America, Our Town, and Research: Art Works. Applications are submitted through Grants.gov. Most require 501(c)(3) status or government affiliation. The NEA funds in specific disciplines (dance, design, literature, media arts, music, theater, visual arts) with distinct application cycles.
The NEA's direct individual grants are limited to Literature Fellowships and honorary awards. However, many state arts councils, foundations (Pollock-Krasner, United States Artists, Creative Capital), and residency programs provide direct artist funding. Fiscal sponsorship through organizations like Fractured Atlas opens additional grant opportunities for individual artists.

Foundations like ArtPlace America, the Kresge Foundation, and local community foundations support community arts. CDBG funds can support arts-based community development projects.
