Maryland History Day, the Chautauqua program, Community Conversations and re-grants for public humanities programs in American history and culture.

The Maryland Humanities Council will use the 2008 We the People funding to support four program areas that have proven effective in engaging diverse audiences: the Maryland History Day program, the Chautauqua program, the Community Conversations program, and the Grant program. Additionally the Council will develop a fifth program for Picturing America. Each of these program areas offers Marylanders the opportunity to personally explore the rich diversity of America's history and culture.
