Submit your nominations to honor the work of extraordinary members of the public humanities community!
The Council invites YOU to submit nominations for the 2017 Celebration of the Humanities awards, to be presented in October 2017.
The 2017 Celebration will focus on how the humanities bring us together through stories that make connections not widen differences, conversations that bring people and communities closer, and affirmation of our shared civic values.
