National Endowment for the Humanities: America's Media Makers: Development Grants. Deadline August 17, 2011
Grants for America's Media Makers support projects in the humanities that explore stories, ideas, and beliefs that deepen the understanding of lives and the world. The Division of Public Programs supports the development of humanities content and interactivity that excite, inform, and stir thoughtful reflection upon culture, identity, and history in creative and new ways. Grants for America's Media Makers should encourage dialogue, discussion, and civic engagement, and they should foster learning among people of all ages. To that end, the Division of Public Programs urges applicants to consider more than one format for presenting humanities ideas to the public.
