Partnership Agreement Grants, FY 2027
National Endowment for the Arts · 2027NEA04PA · Deadline: September 29, 2026 · Advertised ceiling: $2.5M
Program-level history — this opportunity doesn't publish per-opportunity awards, so these numbers describe its parent program (CFDA 45.025, Promotion of the Arts Partnership Agreements), not this competition alone. Labeled that way on purpose.
69 unique recipients in the sample; 67 repeat winners.
range $66k – $2.6M
Ask-amount guidance
Applicants here typically receive far less than the advertised ceiling: the program median is $975k against a $2.5M ceiling (39%). Budgets far above the median need a story; budgets far below leave money on the table.
Draw-down reality (program)
Across 276 completed awards in this program (FY2021+ sample, USAspending outlay records), grantees ultimately drew a median 100% of obligated funds. A median well under 100% means underspend or early closure is common here — worth knowing before promising a spend-down timeline.
