About the company
New Mexico Humanities Council, a tax-exempt nonprofit organization headquartered in Albuquerque, operates as a federal grant recipient under the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) and the Department of the Interior, delivering humanities programming, cultural resilience initiatives, and subaward-making to New Mexico communities.
The Council's federal footprint is concentrated entirely with NEH, which has funded 11 of its 13 awards over the past thirteen years. The organization acts exclusively as a prime grant recipient; it does not hold federal contracts, contract vehicles, or subcontract roles. Recent work spans general operating support, disaster recovery programming, and specialized humanities initiatives. The Council received a $624,877 Project Grant from NEH's Promotion of the Humanities Federal/State Partnership program (CFDA 45.129) effective June 1, 2026 through April 30, 2031, providing five-year general operating support to develop and distribute subawards to local cultural institutions, educational organizations, and community groups while implementing direct public humanities initiatives across New Mexico. Supporting that effort, the Council completed a $30,000 emergency supplemental grant from NEH in 2022 to assess and plan disaster response following the Hermit's Peak and Calf Canyon wildfires, and a subsequent NEH supplemental award dated June 1, 2024 extending through May 31, 2026 to support communities impacted by those wildfires through humanities-based recovery and cultural resilience activities. The Council also holds NEH Project Grants for the National History Day Supplements program (awarded September 1, 2023, completed February 28, 2025) and the "United We Stand" supplement (awarded September 1, 2023, completed October 31, 2024), both addressing civic engagement, cross-cultural understanding, and education on community history and social cohesion.
The Council's second funding source is the Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management New Mexico Region, which has issued two Cooperative Agreements. One cooperative agreement, dated October 1, 2022 and completed September 30, 2023, supported a Southern New Mexico Archaeological Sites website incorporating digitized collections from the Permian Basin area, with advisory committee work, student internships, and outreach in collaboration with Isleta Pueblo and Mescalero Apache tribal nations. A second cooperative agreement dated September 7, 2021 and completed August 31, 2022 supported a New Mexico Ancient Peoples and Places website project. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $11.8 million. Award volume has been modest and irregular—two awards in 2021, three in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2024, and one in 2026—with only one award reaching completion in the next twenty-four months, leaving minimal recompete exposure in that window.
