For the past two and a half years, CT Humanities has been using state, federal, and private
foundation funds to steward the cultural sector through the pandemic with grants, digital
resources, and professional development programs.

CTH, an independent, nonprofit affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities,

dialogue, and civic engagement in ways that strengthen communities and enhance quality of
life for all Connecticut’s residents.

and culture to transform and enrich their lives and be empowered participants in our
democracy,” says Dr. Jason Mancini, a North Stonington resident and CTH’s executive
director.
