Fellows are expected to plan and execute their project, participate in cohort meetings, create and maintain a project plan and budget, and submit a final impact report and present it to the Humanities Washington Board of Trustees and staff.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This program is specifically intended for individuals in the early stages of their careers. This is typically defined as five or fewer years into a career path.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Eligible applicants will still be developing their skills, networks, and experience in the field. Individuals serving in leadership roles or with extensive experience in the public humanities are likely outside the scope of this program. Applicants must be at least 18 years old to be considered.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Examples of eligible applicants include (but are not limited to):<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We use the NEH\u2019s definition of the humanities, which is as follows:\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u202f<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe term \u2018humanities\u2019 includes, but is not limited to, the study and interpretation of the following: language, both modern and classical; linguistics; literature; history; jurisprudence; philosophy; archaeology; comparative religion; ethics; the history, criticism and theory of the arts; those aspects of social sciences which have humanistic content and employ humanistic methods; and the study and application of the humanities to the human environment with particular attention to reflecting our diverse heritage, traditions, and history and to the relevance of the humanities to the current conditions of national life.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If the answer is yes to <\/span>all of these questions<\/span><\/i>, your project is likely to be eligible for consideration:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Innovative projects that serve audiences underrepresented in the humanities are prioritized. Projects can take many forms, such as public presentations, online exhibits, podcasts, discussion groups, video series, place-based programming, and digital publications.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Art projects are outside the scope of this project. We encourage individuals with folk and traditional art projects to look into the <\/span>Heritage Arts Apprenticeship Program<\/span><\/a>, .
