Vermont Humanities Project Grants are designed to support innovative community and curriculum development initiatives that use the humanities to foster vibrant, just, and resilient communities across Vermont. The program prioritizes projects that engage the public in humanities-based learning, promote civic engagement, and encourage democratic practices. Special emphasis is placed on reaching underserved, rural, or under-resourced communities, and on projects that foster collaboration, inclusivity, and accessibility. Initiatives that bring together diverse populations and provide leadership opportunities for historically marginalized groups are especially encouraged.
