frankenthaler warhol foundations fund projects nea cuts 2640695

The Helen Frankenthaler Foundation and the Andy Warhol Foundation are jointly providing $800,000 in emergency grants to replace funding lost when the Trump administration abruptly cut the National Endowment for the Arts' Challenge America grants in February 2025. The grants, each worth $10,000, will support 80 small and medium-sized visual arts programs across the country that had been promised NEA funding for underserved communities, including the Kids & Art Foundation, Allentown Art Museum, Free Arts for Abused Children, InToto Creative Arts Forum, and Latinitas.
