The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded a $175,000 Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Federal/State Partnership program (CFDA 45.129) to the Florida Humanities Council, Incorporated. This funding will support the development of a documentary film and an oral history collection focused on the stories of recovery, resiliency, and rebuilding following the impact of Hurricane Ian on Florida's environment, businesses, and culture.
As part of this project, Florida Humanities Council will work with local community foundations and cultural institutions to curate and document stories for the documentary and oral history collection, which will be featured in the council's Florida Stories and a special edition of Forum Magazine. The council will partner with WGCU Public Media to plan, curate, and produce the documentary film and a complementary podcast series on the impact of Hurricane Ian in Southwest Florida.
