Humanities New York Sharp Action Grants Available from $1,500 to $10,000
HNY Sharp Action Grants are implementation grants for public-facing humanities projects that encourage audiences to reflect on their values, explore new ideas, and engage with others in their community.
These grants aim to actively engage audiences through creative programming formats, including workshops, roundtables, panel discussions, exhibits, podcasts, and interactive digital platforms
HNY SHARP Action Grants are intended to help not-for-profit groups that have experienced financial hardship resulting from the pandemic continue to provide humanities programming to their communities.
