The NEA is offering grants for U.S. arts organizations to take part in an international arts exhibition in Belgium in 2007. In partnership with the U.S. Department of State and Europalia International, the Endowment wants to help "showcase the excellence, diversity and vitality of the arts in the United States through a series of performances, exhibitions, lectures, and symposia" at the festival, europalia.usa 2007. An application for the europalia program does not preclude an organization from applying under other NEA funding opportunities. To access the guidelines, go to the NEA Web site's "Grants" page, choose one arts discipline and then click on "europalia.usa 2007." [LINK] Posted by Linda Frye Burnham
