their communities.

Council invites nonprofit organizations to apply for
Humanities-and-the-Arts Grants, which fund public programs that use the
humanities to increase understanding and appreciation of the arts. These
grants are offered in partnership with the Pennsylvania Council on the
Arts.
Mini-Project Grants (awards up
to $1,000) are available year-round. April 1 is the deadline for
Project Grants (awards up to $5,000).
Humanities-and-the-Arts

groups, and lectures.
