National Gallery of Art federal obligations in District of Columbia

Agency 3302 and District of Columbia share one USAspending.gov cell: $271,800,470.94 in National Gallery of Art obligations across 436 awards. The figure is an obligation sum, not an outlay total and not the agency's nationwide book. Mean dollars per action are about $623,395.58 if you divide the two facts.

Key figures

  • Agency 3302 plus District of Columbia geography yields $271,800,470.94.
  • A long award list: 436 rows.
  • Obligations are commitments, not payments.
  • Neighbor-coded work in Maryland or Virginia is excluded.
  • No contractor names in this packet.

National Gallery of Art dollars tagged to District of Columbia

Awarding agency 3302 and place-of-performance state DC meet here. $271,800,470.94 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not National Gallery of Art's nationwide budget, not District of Columbia's entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. National Gallery of Art in the District is a museum-operations cell, not a Smithsonian twin and not a visitor-count. Gallery-operations and collections-care folklore and headquarters-city and federal-enclave folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a census of visitors or artworks.

436 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — more than a few hundred rows can mix large instruments with smaller service awards. A long row list can mix small support payments with larger instruments. The join does not rank District of Columbia against other states and does not name vendors or conservators inside the extract. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Why a long award list still hides mixed instruments

Dividing $271,800,470.94 by 436 yields about $623,395.58 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical museum-operations award. A second National Gallery slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat District of Columbia's 3302 total as a synonym for every National Gallery of Art bureau account.

Gallery-operations and collections-care folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative's extra columns. Headquarters-city and federal-enclave folklore may explain a search path. It does not add dollars.

Two hubs, one intersection

The agency-wide National Gallery of Art page aggregates 3302 without requiring DC geography. The District of Columbia federal spending page aggregates all agencies with District of Columbia place of performance. Only National Gallery of Art in District of Columbia applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 436 awards and $271,800,470.94.

Place of performance in District of Columbia is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list DC while later collections care occurs in Maryland or Virginia. National Gallery awards coded to those places do not sit in this total even if a vendor's mailroom is in the District. This packet does not split Northwest from Northeast or Southeast. Northwest, Northeast, and Southeast are reader landmarks, not packet subtotals.

What USAspending publishes here

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $271,800,470.94 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in District of Columbia over-reads the field. USAspending.gov is the source named in the packet.

Award count 436 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use National Gallery of Art in District of Columbia. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug. Keep the obligation word in every reuse of $271,800,470.94.

District of Columbia National Gallery totals are not campaign money

A large National Gallery total in District of Columbia does not mean the agency caused District of Columbia's fiscal mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between headquarters-city and federal-enclave folklore and National Gallery awards is expected; it is not a finding about waste or program quality. No performance metric is in the packet.

Keep $271,800,470.94 labeled as agency 3302 obligations with District of Columbia place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. Do not claim that donations paid for $271,800,470.94 in District of Columbia. No contractor names are in the packet, and none are invented.

Reuse rules for this extract

A clean footnote names awarding agency 3302 (National Gallery of Art), District of Columbia place of performance, $271,800,470.94 in obligations, and 436 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $271,800,470.94 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $623,395.58 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical museum-operations award.

National Gallery of Art in District of Columbia, District of Columbia federal spending, National Gallery of Art, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $271,800,470.94 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Northwest-versus-Northeast folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Vendors or conservators names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Correlation is not causation. National Gallery of Art in the District is a museum-operations cell, not a Smithsonian twin and not a visitor-count.
