NEH Public Impact Projects at Smaller Organizations Grants

Deadline: June 12, 2024 (optional draft due May 8)

The NEH's Public Impact Projects grants aim to assist small and mid-sized cultural organizations in expanding the scope, reach, and excellence of their public programs. These grants support activities such as enriching interpretive strategies, strengthening interpretive skill sets, and enhancing community engagement with public-facing programs. The program encourages organizations to consider their interpretive humanities needs or programmatic goals and how meeting these needs would benefit public audiences. Projects may involve evaluating current programming, identifying new story opportunities, implementing new programs, or providing professional development opportunities for staff and volunteers. The maximum award amount is $25,000.

The NEH encourages proposals from first-time applicants and provides tips for successful submission, including starting early, submitting distinct proposals, observing requirements, and seeking assistance from Program Officers. The recording from a live webinar and Q&A session on April 25, is available for reference.
