About the company
New York Council For The Humanities, doing business as Humanities New York, is a nonprofit organization headquartered at 150 Broadway in New York that receives federal grant funding from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) to deliver public humanities programming and subawards across New York State. The organization operates exclusively as a grant recipient (100% of recent awards are prime grants) with no federal contracting activity.
Humanities New York's federal footprint consists entirely of NEH grants under the State Humanities Program (CFDA 45.129) and supplemental program categories. The most recent and substantial award is a $1.159 million Project Grant under the Promotion of the Humanities Federal/State Partnership program, dated June 1, 2026, with performance through April 30, 2031. This general operating support grant enables Humanities New York to develop public programming — civic discussions, living history presentations, reading and discussion series, and community-centered events — and to provide subawards to New York-based cultural organizations and institutions. The organization also holds an active grant from November 1, 2022, running through October 31, 2027, under the State or Jurisdictional Humanities Program, which similarly supports subawards and public programming with stated goals to expand outreach and reach vulnerable and underserved New York communities. Prior awards included an NEH United We Stand Supplement (September 1, 2023, through June 30, 2025) to foster cross-cultural understanding and civic engagement, and an NEH National History Day Supplement (September 1, 2023, through February 28, 2025) to extend outreach to underrepresented and hard-to-reach student populations.
The National Endowment for the Humanities is the sole customer across all 17 awards in the portfolio, with combined dollars obligated at $35.8 million. Activity has been sparse — one award in 2019, one in 2021, one in 2022, two in 2023, and one in 2026 — reflecting the structure of multiyear general operating support grants rather than frequent task order competition. Only one award faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
