(a) From the appropriation under s. 20.380 (3) (d), the board shall award arts challenge initiative grants to arts organizations and local arts agencies.
(b) The board shall award grants from the appropriation under s. 20.380 (3) (d) to match up to 25 percent of an arts organization's or a local arts agency's income from contributions for the fiscal year in which a grant may be awarded that exceeds the amount of income from contributions in the previous fiscal year and income from earned income that exceeds the amount of earned income from the previous fiscal year in that fiscal year subject to the following requirements:
1. An arts organization or a local arts agency must earn income which exceeds the amount of earned income from the previous fiscal year in each fiscal year for which the organization or local arts agency applies for a grant to meet the requirements of this paragraph.

(e) Notwithstanding par. (b), a grant under par. (c) or (d) may match up to 100 percent of the sum of the arts organization's or local arts agency's income from contributions and earned income for the previous fiscal year, except that a grant under par. (d) shall be not less than $3,000 and not more than $10,000.
(3) If the amount in the appropriation under s. 20.380 (3) (d) in any fiscal year is insufficient to fund all grants under this section, the board shall award grants, including the minimum and maximum grants under sub. (2) (e), on a prorated basis.
(4) The board shall promulgate rules to implement and administer this section.
