Opportunity Information: Apply for 20181226 MR
Programming Grants to Accompany NEH on the Road Exhibitions is a discretionary grant opportunity from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) designed to help host sites build public-facing humanities programming around an NEH on the Road traveling exhibition. The core purpose is not to fund the exhibition itself, but to support the extra programs that make the exhibition more engaging for local audiences and deepen the humanities content through activities that encourage learning, conversation, and community participation.
Funding is intended for ancillary public humanities programs that are accessible to the general public and fit naturally alongside a traveling exhibit. Common program formats include public lectures; reading and discussion series; film screenings paired with facilitated discussions; Chautauqua-style presentations in which scholars portray historical figures or interpret historical topics; family-oriented educational events; guided exhibition tours; and other comparable activities that extend the exhibition theme beyond simply viewing the panels or objects. The emphasis is on public humanities, meaning programs should interpret history, culture, literature, ethics, or related humanities subjects in a way that invites broad public engagement rather than serving a narrow academic audience.
Eligibility is limited and very specific. Applicants must be nonprofit institutions with 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status, and they must already have a confirmed booking for an NEH on the Road exhibition through the Mid-America Arts Alliance. In other words, an organization cannot apply to this program unless it has secured an exhibition booking first, and the booking must be confirmed through the designated partner organization that manages the traveling schedule.
This opportunity is offered as a grant (Funding Instrument Type: Grant) under the humanities funding activity category, with CFDA number 45.164. The funding opportunity number is 20181226 MR. The listed award ceiling is $1,000, indicating that awards are small and intended to cover modest program costs tied to the exhibition, such as speaker honoraria, discussion facilitators, supplies for family programs, promotional materials for public events, or other reasonable expenses directly connected to hosting and interpreting the exhibition for the public. The original closing date for the opportunity was December 26, 2018, and the source record lists the creation date as January 19, 2018.Apply for 20181226 MR
