Arizona Humanities supports innovative, community-based projects that use humanities disciplines to connect Arizonans to the cultures, peoples, and histories of the state and beyond. We welcome proposals from a wide range of nonprofit, educational, and governmental organizations and encourage projects that are innovative in their approach toward the humanities and public programming. Projects should use the humanities to provide context, depth, and perspective to issues of significance to Arizonans.

This year, the fund seeks proposals from Native-led nonprofits and organizations that are focused on providing youth with opportunities that help perpetuate traditional ecological knowledge, spirituality, and the intergenerational transfer of knowledge systems, resulting in compassion, respect, dignity, reverence for nature, and care for each other and the Earth.

Grants will be awarded to individuals and organizations in support of efforts to promote the reduction and eventual elimination of nuclear weapons, prevent the emergence of new nuclear states, and advance regional peace.
