Nevada Humanities Major Project Grants Portal Now Open
By Staff of Nevada Humanities
“We are excited to launch the Nevada Humanities Major Project Grants as our state begins to reopen and look ahead to a new future.”
Nevada Humanities is pleased to announce the opening of the Nevada Humanities Major Project Grants that are part of the FY2022 Nevada Humanities Project Grants to Support Public Humanities Projects. These Major Project Grants, which fund projects and organizations across the state, have a public humanities project focus and will support public humanities projects that range from one month to one year to implement.
Through this Major Project Grant program, Nevada Humanities offers grants of up to $7,500 to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, tribal entities, and governmental entities, which includes libraries, museums, and educational institutions, to fund public and educational programs in the humanities. The funding that comprises these grants addresses the continuing need for humanities-based, cultural programs statewide.
