Humanities For All Quick Grant
Fall Deadline: Apply by October 17, 2022
Humanities for All is a grant program that supports locally-initiated public humanities projects. This program responds to the needs and interests of Californians, and encourages greater public participation in humanities programming, particularly by new and/or underserved audiences.
The next deadline to apply for a Humanities for All Quick Grant (between $1,000 and $5,000) is October 17, 2022.
Quick Grants are awarded three times a year to small-scale public humanities programs and projects that take place within one year from the award date. Projects should be grounded in the humanities, show potential to provide high-quality humanities learning experiences for participants and audiences, and demonstrate a capacity for successful implementation. Appropriate formats include but are not limited to community dialogues, reading- or film-and-discussion groups, oral history or nonfiction writing or story-sharing workshops, participatory virtual programs, interpretive exhibits, and other types of activities.
Any California-based nonprofit organization or non-federal public agency is eligible to apply. Note: A cash or in-kind match of the award is NOT required.
For grant guidelines, application instructions, applicant webinar video, and a list of previously awarded projects please visit the Humanities for All Quick Grants page. Projects awarded for this round will take place from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023.
Applications for the Quick Grant may be submitted via the grant portal.
