The American Art Program supports scholarly loan exhibitions that contribute significantly to the study and understanding of art of the United States, including all facets of Native American art. These grants advance the Program’s efforts to empower art museums to reconsider accepted histories, amplify the voices and experiences of underrepresented artists and cultures, and facilitate important dialogue with diverse collaborators and communities.

Program Requirements and Guidelines

• Concept Notes must be submitted online by the originating institution and not by a participating-venue institution. (Letters are not accepted from individuals.)
• Art of the United States, including Native American art, should constitute significantly more than half of the checklist.
• The organizing institution’s permanent collection should not constitute more than half of the exhibition checklist.
• A single, privately held collection should constitute no more than half of the exhibition checklist.
• The holdings of a single commercial dealer should constitute no more than half of the exhibition checklist.
• The proposed exhibition should not open before March of the year following your application submission.
• Museums outside of the United States may submit appropriate projects for consideration only if they have proof of valid non-profit status provided by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

The MAP Fund is founded on the principle that experimentation drives human progress, no less in art than in science or medicine. MAP supports artists, ensembles, producers and presenters whose work in the disciplines of contemporary performance embodies this spirit of exploration and deep inquiry. MAP is particularly interested in supporting work that examines notions of cultural difference or "the other," be that in class, gender, generation, race, religion, sexual orientation or other aspects of diversity. $1 million, for up to 40 projects, is awarded annually.
