Year-round, we cultivate the joy of the humanities statewide, providing public programming and funding for organizations and projects from the shores of Lake Michigan to the banks of the Ohio River, from Vigo County to Wayne County. We equip Indiana’s communities to connect, converse and create vibrant, more resilient futures together. Your support ensures that we can continue this vital work.
Together With You, We’ve Been Doing Great Things For More Than 50 Years
We’ve sought to provide context to a world that continues to baffle, delight, frustrate and elude us. We’ve worked to help Hoosiers tackle difficult questions, understand varied perspectives and connect across divides. We’ve served our community as a trusted neutral convener, supportive grantmaker and innovative program partner. And we’ve made it all fun, because life is too short.
With an eye to the future and our values as our guides, we’re excited about what we can accomplish, and we invite you to be a part of the work we’re doing to support good projects and great ideas in our state.
Let’s Do More Good Work Together
With your help and partnership, we’ll continue to equip Indiana’s communities to connect, converse and create vibrant, more resilient futures!
