Kentucky Humanities believes in the power of storytelling, history, and culture to educate, inspire, and strengthen our communities. The humanities connect us to our past, help us understand our present, and shape our future. With your support, we can continue to bring engaging programs, cultural initiatives, and educational resources to all Kentuckians.
Funding and support for the humanities are crucial for preserving Kentucky’s unique heritage, fostering critical thinking, and providing enriching experiences for people of all ages. Advocating for Kentucky Humanities means ensuring that schools, libraries, museums, and community organizations have the resources they need to continue their vital work.
