SC Humanities’ Accessibility and Inclusion Grants are intended to support making public humanities programs and collections more accessible to diverse public audiences. Funds can be used for such activities as translation and captioning services, ASL interpreters, materials for the visually impaired, student transportation expenses, and childcare to make programs more accessible to families. This is not an exhaustive list. Grant funds CANNOT be used for construction costs. Awards are currently $2,000 or less.
The Accessibility and Inclusion Grant application and guidelines are available for download as an editable pdf form, below. Please read through these materials carefully.
