NEH Consultation Grants
A new category of grants is available from the National Endowment for the
Humanities to support the development of public humanities programs.
Consultation Grants will be awarded in the early stages of a project, to
allow collaboration with scholars and other advisers who can help to develop
or deepen the project's humanities themes and content. Competition is open
to museums, historic sites and historical societies, public television and
radio stations, independent media producers, libraries, and other non-profit
organizations.
The maximum award is $10,000.
Preference will be given to first-time grant recipients. Special
consideration will also be given to applicants from the following 14 states
and Puerto Rico, which have been underserved by NEH awards:
Alabama Missouri Oklahoma
Alaska Montana Puerto Rico
Florida Nevada Texas
Idaho North Dakota Washington
Louisiana Ohio Wyoming
Examples of situations in which a Consultation Grant might be helpful:
* A historic site wants to broaden its local focus by exploring larger
themes in the history of the area or region. The staff needs to consult
with historians and professionals from other historic houses and museums to
help shape a new interpretation for the public.
* A museum is interested in improving the ways in which its
collections are used to communicate ideas to the general public. The staff
wants to bring in a team of scholars, museum curators and educators to help
develop workable humanities themes and strategies for interpreting those
themes for visitors.
Deadlines: September 11, 2000
April 16, 2001
