The Public Humanities Fellowship is a competitive grant program intended to support research in the humanities relating to Montana and the region. Fellowship funds support continuous work on a humanities project for a period of six consecutive months. Fellowship funds may support recipients’ compensation, travel, and other costs related to the proposed scholarly research and delivery of a public program in Montana.
Humanities Montana fellowships are not limited to individuals in educational institutions. Independent scholars and writers in various other settings—such as, museums, libraries, and historical associations, or others—are welcome and encouraged to apply.
Public Humanities Fellowships Support:
As the funding landscape for federal agencies continues to evolve, Humanities Montana is following guidance as released by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). For information regarding recent Executive Orders and their impact on the NEH, visit the NEH website.
