Giving is a Humanities Discipline

The Humanities Council of Washington DC is the only District organization devoted to identifying, supporting, and showcasing D.C.’s humanities programs. The Humanities Council is an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities; however, it is a private, non-profit organization, and not a federal or District agency. The Council relies on the generosity of individuals, foundations, corporations, and government agencies to sustain and continue its mission to preserve the District’s diverse cultural legacies by providing educational and cultural humanities-based programming throughout the city that explore ideas within a unique Washington context.
