CT Humanities encourages curiosity, understanding and critical thinking, providing leadership through grants, partnerships, and collaborative programs. Our vision is an engaged, informed Connecticut. You might know us as the Connecticut Humanities Council, the 501(c)3 state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities that provides grants to historical societies for exhibitions and programs exploring our state’s rich history, offers book-based facilitated discussions for all ages in libraries across the state and provides after-school Book Voyagers programs in the Hartford, New Haven, and New London school systems.
