The Public Humanities Program Grants (formerly known as Community Project Grants) support projects that preserve, promote, and share the history, literature, cultures, and personal stories that offer Floridians a better understanding of themselves, their communities, and their state.
These projects aim to create opportunities for bringing people together to not only reflect on the history and heritage but also the current cultural and civic life.
