Online grants office hours
Humanities Nebraska is offering live online grant office hours with Grants Management & Outreach Specialist Katie Bradshaw. These office hours will take place via Zoom 3-4 weeks before each grant deadline.
There is no structure to these informal office hours, though sometimes the session may begin with a specific topic discussion. Drop in anytime during the hour to discuss grant ideas, get clarifications about application questions, or ask anything else you’d like to know about humanities grants.
The link for each office hours Zoom will be sent to anyone who has applied to Humanities Nebraska for a grant in the last year, anyone who has signed up for a grant workshop, and anyone who requests to be added to the grants mailing list.
