We’re humbled to announce that we’ve been awarded a CA CARES Relief Grant by the California Humanities, an independent nonprofit organization and partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH). Funding for these grants has been provided by the NEH as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act economic stabilization plan. According to their site, the mission of California Humanities is “to connect Californians to ideas and one another in order to understand our shared heritage and diverse cultures, inspire civic participation, and shape our future.” Since 1975, they’ve been “promoting the humanities as relevant, meaningful ways to understand the human condition and connect us to each other in order to help strengthen California.” Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, they’re awarding these grants “to meet the emergency relief needs of organizations and individuals in order to help sustain and grow the public humanities field in California.” We’re very honored to receive a generous grant from this respected organization because we aspire to the same goal. Through our artistic work, we similarly attempt to explore the human condition. We recognize that there are many other worthy organizations and individuals who are in need during this challenging time. So we deeply appreciate California Humanities’ support of our work.
