Humanities and Cultural Organizations May Apply for Aid

Wisconsin’s humanities and cultural organizations may now apply for financial relief from the Wisconsin Humanities Council through its  Wisconsin Humanities CARES Relief Grant program, which will distribute close to $540,000 in federal relief funding to help organizations weather the COVID-19 pandemic.

Learn about eligibility and apply for grants of up to $10,000 at wisconsinhumanitiescares.org. The first-round deadline is May 15, and award decisions will be announced by June 5. 

The relief funds were authorized by the federal CARES Act through the National Endowment for the Humanities and are intended to support the general operating costs of smaller humanities and cultural organizations.
