General operating support for state or territorial humanities council

With the General Operating Support Grant, the Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities brings the humanities to life through subawards and/or public programming in Louisiana. The council tailors its subaward-making and public programs to the needs, resources, and interests of Louisiana. In doing so, it delivers on its mission to partner with communities, institutions, and individuals to explore Louisiana’s past, reflect on our present, and imagine our future.
