NEH Historical and Cultural Organizations Grants

There are two kinds of these NEH grants: Planning grants and Implementation grants.

The deadline for both kinds is August 15, 2012.

Planning grants support the early stages of project development, including consultation with scholars, refinement of humanities themes, preliminary design, and audience evaluation.

Implementation grants support final scholarly research and consultation, design development, production, and installation of a project for presentation to the public.

Both kinds provide support for museums, libraries, historic places, and other organizations that produce public programs in the humanities. Grants support the following:

• exhibitions at museums, libraries, and other venues;
• interpretations of historic places, sites, or regions;
• book/film discussion programs; living history presentations; and other face-to-face programs at libraries, community centers, and other public venues; and
• interpretive websites.

Up to 30 awards will be funded, ranging up to $1,000,000.
