Opportunity Summary:
The 74th National Folk Festival Intent to Award (Funding Opportunity Number WASO NPS P13AC00742) is a National Park Service (NPS) notice describing the agency's plan to issue a single cooperative agreement to support a specific public cultural event. The project focuses on helping the NPS program, produce, and present a 74th National Folk Festival Showcase at the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial in St. Louis, Missouri, timed to coincide with the Fair Saint Louis Independence Day celebrations. In practical terms, the funded work centers on delivering a curated folk arts and traditional culture showcase as part of a major public-facing Fourth of July event held on NPS-managed park grounds.
This opportunity is categorized as "Other" and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, which generally indicates that NPS expects to be actively involved with the recipient during planning and execution rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The activity category is listed as Education, reflecting the interpretive and public learning value of presenting traditional arts, music, dance, and cultural demonstrations to a large audience in a national park setting. The associated CFDA listing is 15.916, Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning, which is a common administrative classification used for certain NPS assistance awards tied to visitor experiences and public programming.
Funding details show an estimated total of $58,000, with an award ceiling of $58,000 and an award floor of $0, and the announcement anticipates only one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient is not required by this notice to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. Key dates indicate the notice was posted and created on June 28, 2013, with an original and current closing date of July 10, 2013, and an archive date of August 9, 2013, signaling the period during which the notice was publicly available in active form.
Eligibility is not open or competitive for this announcement. The notice explicitly states that there is no eligibility for the notice because it is an intent to award to a named organization: the National Council of Traditional Arts. That means the NPS is not soliciting applications from other entities through this particular posting; instead, it is documenting its intention to make an award to that specific partner to carry out the festival showcase work.
