NPR has been picked to receive a $500,000 grant through this year’s Getty Prize, half of which will be shared with Los Angeles member stations LAist and KCRW.

Ann Philbin, director emeritus of the Hammer Museum, has been awarded the 2025 prize for her work in arts and culture, the J. Paul Getty Trust announced Wednesday. The honor comes with a $500,000 pay-it-forward grant from Getty, which was established last year. It allows the award recipient to recognize the work of an arts or educational nonprofit.
