Getty Foundation
The Getty Grant Program was formally established in 1984 to serve the visual arts and related humanities by providing funding for work of exceptional merit for which resources were otherwise limited. It was established by the J. Paul Getty Trust, an international cultural and philanthropic organization serving both general audiences and specialized professionals. The Trust is a not-for-profit institution, educational in purpose and character, that focuses on the visual arts in all of their dimensions. As of 2009 the Trust supports and oversees four programs: the J. Paul Getty Museum; the Getty Conservation Institute; the Getty Research Institute; and the Getty Foundation, which continues the work begun by the Getty Grant Program. In 2005 the name of the Getty Grant Program was changed to the Getty Foundation. The Foundation supports projects, internationally, that promote research in the history of art and the humanities, the understanding of art, and conservation.
The professional staff of the Trust design programs, encourage and assess proposals, and seek to discover opportunities of exceptional promise that can advance a field or strengthen an institution. Applications are evaluated by the professional staff, calling on outside expertise when required. The staff recommends to the President grants for funding under Trustee-approved appropriations. [From report "The J. Paul Getty Trust Grant Program" presented to the Trustees at April 27, 1980 Board meeting.] Grants in excess of $50,000 must be approved by the Trust Grant Committee.
