The D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities (DCCAH) is an agency of the District of Columbia government under the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development. The DCCAH was created as an outgrowth of the U.S. Congress act that created the National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities. In 1965 the foundation provided for two operating federal agencies: the National Endowment for the Arts and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
