Nevada Humanities Grants

Nevada Humanities is especially interested in funding projects that promote community through various forms of engagement and projects that encourage conversation. This may be through face-to-face dialogue, such as lectures, forums and round-table discussions, but also through programs that stimulate thought and reflection, such as media productions, film screenings, exhibitions, local history projects and projects that explore local culture and Nevada’s diverse heritage and unique places.

Grant deadlines are: March 10 and October 10. Applications requesting $1000 or less may be submitted at any time.

Grant applications are submitted online.

The grant guidelines provide further information on the centrality of the humanities, eligibility requirements, ineligible expenses, the points to cover in the project narrative, completing the budget form, cost-sharing, and tips for success.

Staff members are available to answer questions and to review draft proposals in Reno at 775/784-6587 or 800/382-5023, and in Las Vegas at 702/895-1878.
