Description
The Mississippi Humanities Council (MHC) Minigrants program provides funding of up to $2,500 to support public humanities projects throughout Mississippi. Minigrants are designed for nonprofit organizations seeking resources for short-term or smaller-scale initiatives that promote public understanding and engagement with the humanities. Eligible projects can include public programs, exhibits, planning activities, and the development of original productions in film, radio, podcasts, or online formats. This program is currently the primary MHC grant opportunity due to federal funding cuts and the suspension of Regular Grants.
