NEA American Masterpieces: Visual Arts Touring: American Masterpieces: Three Centuries of Artistic Genius is a major initiative to acquaint Americans in all 50 states with the best of their cultural and artistic legacy. This component will celebrate the extraordinary and rich evolution of the visual arts in the United States. Through the creation and touring of major exhibitions, art of the highest quality -- that otherwise would not be available -- will be experienced by Americans in communities across the nation. Exhibitions may focus on schools, movements, traditions, subject areas, or themes. Examples are provided in the Program Announcement. The tour of an existing exhibition is eligible. Exhibitions must be: . Scaled to the size and needs of small and mid-sized exhibiting institutions. . Accompanied by related educational and interpretive components. Educational material for children and youth must ensure the application of national, state, or local arts education standards. . Shown for a period of 8-12 weeks at 2-5 venues which may include the organizing institution. Substantial efforts should be made to reach underserved communities.
