The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) seeks an organization, designated the Cooperator, to develop and administer two concurrent international artist exchanges celebrating connections between arts and sports ahead of the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles, California. The Olympic Games exchange will bring together artists from the United States and Greece. The Paralympic Games exchange will involve a separate group of artists from the United States and the United Kingdom.
The program emphasizes the skill, dedication, physical and emotional expression, and cross-cultural connections shared by arts and sports. Funding will be awarded through a cooperative agreement, with the NEA substantially involved in carrying out the project alongside the recipient.
