Opportunity Summary:
The Blue Ridge Music Center Programming opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS WASO P12AC31764) is a National Park Service (NPS) grant action described as a continuation award tied to a specific task agreement. The purpose of the funding is to support assistance with programming and planning a total of 18 concert programs scheduled for the summer and fall season at the Blue Ridge Music Center. In practical terms, the project is focused on organizing and preparing a full slate of live music events, which can include activities such as coordinating performers, developing program schedules, planning event logistics, and handling related production planning needed to deliver the concert series.
This announcement is not presented as an open competitive solicitation. Instead, it functions as a notice of intent to award, meaning it is essentially a public notification that NPS planned to make an award under an existing arrangement rather than inviting new proposals from a broad pool of applicants. The posting and creation dates are both June 1, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 11, 2012. The listing notes that the closing date is based on the notification of award for the task agreement, reinforcing that the timeline is administrative and tied to finalizing the award rather than to a typical application period. The opportunity was archived on July 11, 2012.
The award structure is very specific: NPS anticipated making one award, with total estimated funding of $92,000. The award floor and ceiling are both set at $92,000, indicating the award amount was fixed rather than a range. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds to meet a match threshold. The funding activity category is Arts (referencing Cultural Affairs), and the CFDA number associated with the program is 45.024, Promotion of the Arts - Grants to Organizations and Individuals.
Eligibility is listed as "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education." This is a narrower eligibility category than many arts grants and suggests the intended recipient may fall under a specific nonprofit classification (for example, certain partner organizations or nonprofit entities that are not designated as 501(c)(3)), while excluding higher education institutions from that particular limitation. Given the notice-to-award language and single expected award, the eligibility details may be included primarily for compliance and classification rather than to encourage new applicants.
