PUBLIC SCHOLARSHIP GRANTS competition

Partnership grants for partnerships of arts and humanities faculty
and community-based artists, humanists, educators, etc., who have

at the local, regional or national level.  Each project may request
up to $10,000; up to seven of these grants will be awarded.

Curricular design grants for faculty teams to investigate ways to
