America’s Media Makers Development Grants (NEH)

Grants for America’s Media Makers support projects in the humanities that explore stories, and beliefs that deepen our understanding of our lives and our world. Grants for America’s Media Makers should encourage dialogue, discussion, and civic engagement, and they should foster learning among people of all ages. NEH offers two categories of grants for media projects: Development Grants and Production Grants. Development grants enable media producers to collaborate with scholars to develop humanities content and format and to prepare programs for production. Development grants should culminate in the refinement of a project’s humanities ideas, a script, or a design document for (or a prototype of) digital media components or projects. 20100113-TD (GG 10/15/09) Deadline: 1/13/2010
