WASHINGTON, D.C. Eleven organizations in Maine have been awarded a combined $280,000 to enhance performing arts and literature programs with the funding awarded through the National Endowment for the Arts.
The National Endowment for the Arts is an independent federal agency established in 1965 whose funding and support give Americans the opportunity to participate in the arts, exercise their imaginations, and develop their creative capacities.
Through partnerships with state arts agencies, local leaders, other federal agencies, and the philanthropic sector, the NEA supports arts learning, affirms and celebrates America’s rich and diverse cultural heritage, and extends its work to promote equal access to the arts in every community across America.
