Description
Nebraska Touring Program Sponsor Grants help organizations bring arts experiences to people across Nebraska. The Nebraska Arts Council funds presentations of performances, programs, or exhibits selected from its Artist Roster, connecting communities with artists whose work can tour beyond their home area. Presentations may include events in schools.
The grant supports a contracted artist fee for a specific presentation rather than an organization’s general activities. Sponsors arrange the event with the artist, apply for support toward the fee, and pay the artist under their contract.
