Deadline: 1 June 2017
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is currently accepting applications for its Common Heritage grants program in order to recognize that members of the public—in partnership with libraries, museums, archives, and historical organizations—have much to contribute to the understanding of the cultural mosaic. Together, such institutions and the public can be effective partners in the appreciation and stewardship of our common heritage.
The program supports events organized by community cultural institutions, which members of the public will be invited to attend. At these events experienced staff will digitize the community historical materials brought in by the public. Project staff will also record descriptive information—provided by community attendees—about the historical materials.
Award information
- Grants of up to $12,000 will be awarded.
- All grants are awarded for a period of eighteen months, although a grantee may complete a project in a shorter period of time.
