Opportunity Summary:
The National Park Service announced a discretionary funding opportunity titled "A Photographic Exhibit of El Camino Real de los Tejas National Historic Trail" (Funding Opportunity Number AJ7700099029) to support professional work connected to developing a photographic exhibit about the El Camino Real de los Tejas National Historic Trail. The purpose of the project is to provide specialized, professional expertise to carry out field studies that will generate the research and on-the-ground documentation needed for a high-quality photographic exhibit. In practical terms, this opportunity is aimed at supporting field-based work along or related to the trail so that photographs and associated study outputs can accurately represent the trail's resources, landscapes, and historically significant locations.
The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the National Park Service expects to be substantially involved during the project rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal participation. The funding activity category is listed under Science and Technology and other Research and Development, reflecting that the work is not just artistic photography, but also includes research-oriented field studies and professional documentation that can support interpretation and public education through an exhibit format.
Funding for this opportunity is fixed and limited. The estimated total funding amount is $30,000, and the award ceiling and floor are both $30,000, indicating the agency anticipated making one award at that exact amount. The expected number of awards is one. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not required to contribute additional funds to meet a match threshold.
Eligibility is limited to private institutions of higher education, meaning the applicant pool is narrowed to private colleges and universities (or equivalent private higher-ed entities) that can provide the appropriate professional capacity for field studies and exhibit development support. The opportunity was posted on October 23, 2009 (created October 20, 2009), with an original and current closing date of October 28, 2009. The archive date is November 27, 2009, indicating the announcement is no longer active.
For assistance with accessing the full announcement or for questions tied to the application process, the listed point of contact is Cheryl Richardson, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 404-507-5747 or by email at cherylrichardson@nps.gov.
