Action Grants

Action Grants support the implementation, continuation, or expansion of public humanities programs.

An Action Grant proposal will be able to clearly articulate a program’s objectives, plan, and timeline. We encourage you to set ambitious objectives for your program content and design. This funding stream can, for example, help you to implement new projects developed through previous Incubation Grants or other planning processes.
