Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Programming, planning for 5th Richmond Folk Festival" (Funding Opportunity Number NPS WASO P12AC31818) is a National Park Service (NPS) continuation grant intended to support the programming and planning work associated with the 5th Richmond Folk Festival at Richmond National Battlefield Park. The announcement is essentially a notice of intent to award rather than a competitive funding opportunity. In practical terms, it signals that the NPS planned to make a single award to a specific organization for this particular festival-related scope of work, and it explicitly states that it is not open for proposals.
The NPS identified the National Council for the Traditional Arts, Inc. (NCTA) as the intended recipient. The eligible applicant category listed is nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education), but because the notice is not a solicitation and names the intended awardee, other nonprofits were not being invited to apply. The funding instrument is a grant, and the opportunity is categorized under arts-related activities, aligning with CFDA 45.024, "Promotion of the Arts - Grants to Organizations and Individuals." The program structure indicates a continuation award, which commonly means the funding builds on an existing partnership or prior work rather than launching a new open competition.
Financially, the posting lists a total estimated funding amount of $32,000, with an award ceiling of $32,000 and an award floor of $32,000, reinforcing that only one award was anticipated and that the amount was effectively fixed. No cost sharing or matching requirement was included, meaning the recipient would not be required to provide matching funds as a condition of the award. The announcement shows an expected number of awards of one.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted and created on June 5, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 11, 2012, and an archive date of July 11, 2012. These dates function more as administrative milestones for the public notice than as a traditional application window, since the announcement states there is no proposal opportunity. For assistance accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is Jaime Mijares, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 303-969-2755 or by email at jaimemijares@nps.gov.
