Eligibility Criteria
To be eligible for an Ohio Humanities grant, you must apply on behalf of a nonprofit organization—such as a public library, museum, historical society, or community organization— located in the state of Ohio
In addition to being a state-recognized non-profit, organizations must meet two other major criteria:
- The organization is not solely a fiscal agent sponsor for the project. The sponsoring organization for an Ohio Humanities grant must be making a substantive contribution to the project.
- The organization does not currently have an open grant with Ohio Humanities. Large organizations with semi-autonomous departments or locations—like universities, public library systems, or park systems—may receive a waiver for this limitation.
