Where the money goes
- Arts organizations of color in Advancing Well-Being in the Arts initiative
- School districts participating in Wallace's ECPI leadership work
- University and think-tank studies of Wallace's own initiatives
- Out-of-school-time, summer learning, and afterschool field research
- Retainers for national education associations as "communications partners"
Typical grant
Median grant is $100,000 and the middle half runs $10,990 to $245,188, so most checks are modest while a small number carry the total. The big money is initiative participation: $3,000,000 to arts organizations joining Advancing Well-Being in the Arts and $1,345,000 to each district in the Equity-Centered Pipeline Initiative. Research awards cluster between $150,000 and $850,000, and the same evaluators and intermediaries reappear year after year, often with two to four grants in a single year.
Their words
Phrases from their own grant descriptions, worth speaking back to them.
- “To participate in Wallace's Advancing Well-Being in the Arts initiative”
- “To participate in Wallace's ECPI”
- “To study the work of districts participating in”
- “To serve as a Wallace communications partner”
- “high-quality afterschool and summer programs”
Positioning adjacent work
- Pitch as a study of an existing Wallace initiative, not a freestanding project; that is how research money moves.
- Ask $150,000 to $650,000 for a single study; reserve larger figures for multi-district evaluation designs.
- Anchor to a named theme: principal pipelines, summer learning, arts and youth well-being, or artists of color.
- Emphasize products the field will use, like tools, cost calculators, surveys, and think pieces, not journal output.
Worth knowing: Almost every grant describes work Wallace designed and named itself, so entry comes through being recruited into an initiative rather than proposing one. A tight bench of repeat research partners, including RAND, American Institutes for Research, Learning Policy Institute, and a handful of state universities, absorbs most evaluation dollars, and 2024 shows a clear new push into arts organizations rooted in communities of color.
