    Description

    The mission of Nevada Humanities is to connect and transform communities by sharing and amplifying the stories, ideas, experiences, and traditions of the diverse people of Nevada. In support of its mission, Nevada Humanities creates and supports public programs statewide that articulate the Nevada experience and facilitate the exploration of issues that matter to Nevadans and their communities. These programs help perpetuate and disseminate local culture and heritage, improve quality of life, enhance education, and enrich life and thought. In addition, Nevada Humanities contributes to the economic health of Nevada by producing and promoting activities that stimulate heritage tourism and attract new business to the state, aid in fostering a creative and well-educated population, and support a diverse and important nonprofit cultural industry throughout the state. Nevada Humanities is one of 56 independent, nonprofit state and territorial humanities councils that partner with the National Endowment for the Humanities. Nevada Humanities awards matching project grants in three categories: Major Project Grants, Mini-Grants, and Planning Grants. These grants are awarded to 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, education institutions, and government entities to support the implementation of public humanities projects throughout Nevada. All Nevada Humanities grant awards are subject to the availability of funds.

    Additional Eligibility Information

    Period of Performance: Flexible; projects must take place between November 1, 2024 - October 31, 2025, and be completed by October 31, 2025; period of performance is subject to award date and completion of project. Applications for Mini-Grants of up to $2,000 may be submitted at any time during the fiscal year, but no less than ten (10) weeks in advance of the project’s first proposed program dates. No projects will be funded after publicity materials have been released. Mini-Grants are designed to respond to yearround, immediate programmatic needs of Nevada cultural organizations. The application process, forms, and guidelines for Mini-Grants are the same as for Major Project Grants and Planning Grants. The Period of Performance for Mini-Grants begins with the date of the grant award and ends on the date of the completion of the last public event or public component of the project. Your project final report is due 90 days from the date of the last public event or public component of the project. For example, if your Mini-Grant is awarded on January 1, 2025, and your event takes place on March 1, 2025, your grant Period of Performance is January 1, 2025 - March 1, 2025. Your final report would be due on or before May 30, 2025.
