State Humanities Program
to support the "Our Stories, Our Future" initiative through the Speaker's Millennium Lecture, humanities grants, book discussion groups, Commonwealth Speakers, and promotional and media activities. Partnering with PCN, the state's cable network, the Pennsylvania Humanities Council will take We the People programming throughout the state. In addition to broadcasting the Speaker's Millennium Lecture, this partnership will create a new series featuring the Commonwealth Speakers, focusing especially on communities with the Speakers are presenting.
The PHC will continue to build on its success connecting America's past in personally meaningful, socially significant ways to the people of Pennsylvania. Programming again will include events like the Speaker's Millennium Lecture, as well as book discussion groups; small and large grants; speakers; and the statewide broadcast of a new television series. The project will serve at least a quarter million people, reaching people in all 67 counties of the state in our final year.
