Event Funding

The Wyoming Institute for Humanities Research seeks to support events that contribute to the active presence of the humanities at the university and that foster community for faculty, students, and the public.As part of these aims, the Humanities Institute has established a fund to support humanities-related events. Any event with humanities-related content is eligible for support but priority will be given to visiting scholars and scholarly symposia. The kinds of activities eligible for support include but are not limited to: 

• Bringing distinguished scholars in humanities related fields to deliver public talks at the university, affiliated community colleges and/or broader Wyoming community.

• Hosting seminars, symposia, conferences, and/or workshops that help foster and advance humanities research at the university.

• Covering the costs of honoraria, travel, and other incidental expenses for these kinds of activities.

We are no longer accepting applications for event funding. Please check back this summer for an updated application for events occurring in academic year 2025-26.
