Michigan Humanities
We celebrate and strengthen the humanities statewide, providing public programming and funding for organizations and projects from the shores of four Great Lakes, the expansive Upper Peninsula, Michigan’s rural landscapes, and urban centers. We support Michigan’s communities as they come together through stories, histories, cultures, and conversations.
