Arizona Humanities supports community-based projects that leverage the humanities to connect Arizonans with their cultures, peoples, and histories. It seeks to foster community engagement through innovative approaches to the humanities, aiming to provide context, depth, and perspective on significant issues, thereby stimulating thoughtful community exchange, building new audiences for the humanities, and advocating for the importance of humanities in democracy.
The grants program by Arizona Humanities aims to foster community exchange, build new audiences for the humanities, innovate new methods within the humanities, and advocate for the importance of humanities in a vibrant democratic society. The grants support various program formats, including interactive lectures, discussions, exhibits, publications (with a third-party, peer-review process), public broadcasts (online or radio), film documentaries, and discussions related to performances. Arizona Humanities offers both Mini Grants and Project Grants, providing funding up to $10,000 for Project Grants to support public programming that uses the humanities to add context, depth, and perspective to the Arizona experience and explore significant issues for Arizonans. Grants are funded through a federal grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and awarded on a competitive basis, with organizations encouraged to consult with Arizona Humanities before proposal submission.
