The American Arts Endowment (could possibly be abbreviated to AAE) is a nationally recognized art organization in the United States of America, its only known role in the series is its pecuniary bid to protect Spinelli's Masterpiece on the playground's blacktop of Third Street School. Their representative, Collette Découpage, was the one who arrived by helicopter to Third Street to tell the administration there to not wipe away the blacktop (as it would be financially endowed by, he organization, the American Arts Endowment). This organization has only ever been mentioned in the episode "Spinelli's Masterpiece", in which it was willing to back Spinelli's blacktop sketch to preserve it. Either the American Arts Endowment or Collette Découpage possibly has a helicopter in their possession; it isn't known if this organization is belonging to the Government or accepts subsidies from the U.S. Government.
