The Arts and Humanities Education Projects (AHEP) grant supports In-School and Out-of-School-Time arts and humanities projects for children and youth in preschool through high school settings. The grant also supports professional development opportunities in the arts and humanities for classroom educators.
The grantees and award amounts listed on this page reflect funding that has been reviewed and approved by the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. However, inclusion on this list does not guarantee that the award was accepted or disbursed. In some cases, funding may not be issued due to reasons we are unable to share publicly, including but not limited to grant award restrictions or noncompliance.
