South Arts create partnerships and collaborations, assists in the professional development of artists, arts organizations and arts professionals; presents, promotes and produces Southern arts and cultural programming; and advocates for the arts and arts education. The organization works in partnership with the nine state arts councils of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Founded in 1975, South Arts is one of six not-for-profit, regional arts organizations (RAO's) funded by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA). The NEA's House reauthorizing committee encouraged the development of RAO's in 1973 to create a more effective mechanism for delivering services, especially those related to touring and presenting the performing arts. The United States Congress sets aside a specific appropriation within the NEA budget for the "states and their regional organizations." The legislation creating South Arts and the other Regional Arts Organizations was introduced by Public Law 93-133: 2/7/1973 Legislation introduced in Senate 4/3/1973 Reported to Senate, amended, S. Rept. 93-100. 5/2/1973 Passed/agreed to in Senate: Measure passed Senate, amended, roll call #112 (76-14). 6/14/1973 Passed/agreed to in House: Measure passed House, amended in lieu of H.R. 3926. 10/4/1973 Conference report agreed to in Senate: Senate agreed to conference report. 10/19/1973 Public law 93-133 signed by President.
