PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS – REGIONAL ARTS ORGANIZATIONS

FINAL DESCRIPTIVE REPORT
Grants Numbers 13-6100-2xxx

Introduction:
Attached are the instructions and required format for the Final Descriptive Report (FDR) for Regional
Arts Organizations' (RAO) Partnership Agreements. The format is designed to facilitate accountability,
analysis of information about arts agencies, and cooperation among Regional Arts Organizations, regional
groups, and the Endowment through information exchange. You are required to use this format in
reporting on all Partnership Agreement activities.
The FDR consists of the DETAIL section, TOTALS page, Data Sequencing Form, and if applicable,
Narrative Requirement for Folk Arts Partnership funds.
•

DETAIL – a list of all grants, awards, and activities carried out under the Partnership Agreement.

•

TOTALS – a chart of actual project cost including administrative expenses and source of funds.

•

Data Sequencing Form (Part 1) – cover sheet for the DETAIL section.

•

Folk Arts Partnership Narrative Requirement (Part 2) – a brief summary of folk arts activities
(only applicable if Folk Arts Partnership funds are included on the grant letter).

A list of definitions for the FDR Data Fields is incorporated into the instructions.
The Partnership Agreement must be matched one to one (dollar for dollar) unless otherwise noted on your
award letter or through an amendment. The TOTALS page and the Federal Financial Report (FFR) is
used to verify that the required match has been met. Federal funds, direct or indirect, cannot be used to
match the Partnership Agreement.
Report only on allowable activities/costs funded through your Partnership Agreement – including awards
and programmatic activities.
If you have questions or would like assistance completing this report, please call the State and Regional
staff at (202) 682-5430.

DETAIL SECTION INSTRUCTIONS & DEFINITIONS
You are reporting on Partnership Agreement activity and costs. This includes subawards and any other
allowable expenses included in the approved project budget. These are expenses covered by NEA funds
and matching funds.
To complete the DETAIL section, create an electronic data file that includes all fields that constitute an
award record per the FDR Data Fields List in "Attachment 1."
Instructions and definitions for each field are given below. The definitions, for the most part, come from
the National Standard for Arts Information Exchange.
The structure of the data file should be explained in the Data Sequencing Form to allow NEA to certify
your data file.
New definition fields are highlighted in yellow

the data fields from the FDR Data Fields List.
a. For each blank that requires a number, fill in only one number.

should only be used numerically.
2. List the records for each grant, award, and/or activity on which you are reporting as described
below:
a. activity for which there is an application and award process, regardless of the funding
source. Information on non-funded applications is not a part of NEA reporting requirements.

sponsorship of a statewide meeting, technical assistance, etc.).
Records may be listed in any order. You may find it convenient to list applications and awards by
arts discipline, grant program, or alphabetically. However, the individual data fields must be in the
prescribed sequence.

Indicate below how many organizations of each type participated in the funded activities during the period
of support. An organizational partner is an outside entity that provides resources (more than money) that
support a project or special initiative. Because all NEA and SAA/RAO grants require matching resources,
organizations that only provided money are not considered partners. Funders are not excluded from being
partners, but they must have supplied human resources or information capital, or actively participated in
another way such as project planning, development, or implementation.
