The guidelines for OCH¹s 2010 Public Program Grants are available online at
oregonhumanities.org and the letter of inquiry postmark deadline is right
around the corner - October 31, 2009!
 
OCH funds programs that offer opportunities for civic engagement and
humanities learning, respond to timely issues and ideas in communities
across Oregon, and inform and broaden the context for public conversations.
Special consideration will be given to programs that explore the following
themes:
 
€ Globalism (including but not limited to economics, war, security, labor,
migration, immigration, or foreign policy)
€ Media and Consumer Culture (including but not limited to media literacy,
consumerism, advertising, socioeconomics, technology, ethics, or privacy)
€ Place and Community (including but not limited to public space, property
rights, sustainability, localism, land use, urban and rural issues, or the
built environment)
 
Public Program Grants are awarded in amounts between $1,000 and $5,000 once
a year; letters of inquiry must be postmarked by Oct. 31, 2009. Full
proposals, if invited, will be due by December 15, 2009.
