US-Greece & US-UK Artist Exchange, FY 2027
National Endowment for the Arts
Summary
This Program Solicitation seeks an organization (the Cooperator) to develop and administer two concurrent international artist exchanges that celebrate the connections between arts and sports in the lead-up to the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles, California. Both the arts and sports demand skill and dedication, offer powerful forms of physical and emotional expression, and bring people from different cultures together. The Olympic Games exchange will bring together artists from the United States and Greece; the Paralympic Games exchange will bring together a separate group of artists from the United States and the United Kingdom (U.K.). This program aligns with Executive Order 14328’s declaration that “this extraordinary occasion offers a powerful opportunity to showcase American strength, pride, and patriotism while welcoming the world to our shores.” This award will be made as a cooperative agreement. Under a cooperative agreement, the National Endowment for the Arts (Arts Endowment) is substantially involved in carrying out the supported project in collaboration with the award recipient. Eligible applicants include nonprofit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) U.S. organizations; units of state or local government; federally recognized tribal communities or tribes; and the six Regional Arts Organizations.
