The National Fund for the Arts (FNA) was created in 1958. It is an autarchic body responsible for generating the necessary economic conditions for the expansion of art and culture in the country, through economic assistance to the various artistic and literary activities .

Thus, it institutes a financial system to encourage creation at the individual and / or group level made by non-profit entities or that are part of the cultural industries. It also aims to serve the preservation of the artistic heritage of the different regions of the country. The FNA acts, in this way, as a true National Bank of the Arts.

Various institutions around the world have replicated their innovative format and their pioneering model of management. Among them, the International Fund for the Promotion of Culture of UNESCO, created in 1974.
