Details:
The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) assists organizations in effectively integrating arts, culture, and design into local efforts to strengthen communities over the long-term by funding creative placemaking projects across the country. Creative placemaking is when artists, arts organizations, and community development practitioners integrate arts and culture into community work–by placing the arts at the table with other sectors, such as agriculture and food, economic development, education and youth, environment and energy, health, housing, public safety, transportation, and workforce development. The work of creative placemaking, sometimes called creative place-keeping or place-knowing, is rooted in the understanding that all communities have intrinsic value, unique assets, cultural significance, and that projects in the community must be informed by and relevant to the members of that community.
In 2024, the program will continue to offer support through virtual programming, access to on demand resources, and in-person technical assistance, which may include short-term institutes and/or community-based site visits to gather experts with teams of local leaders.
