Fifteen organizations from across Wyoming have received a 2026 Culture Grows Grant from Wyoming Humanities. The Culture Grows Grant is a general operating support grant designed to support the cultural network of Wyoming.
“If any organization understands the necessity, benefit, and relief that general operating support can provide, it is Wyoming Humanities,” says executive director Chloé Flagg. “We believe that these dollars are transformative for our cultural organizations across the state, but there is so much more to this grant program.”
Awardees of the Culture Grows Grant join a Cohort that will move throughout the year in concert with one another, sharing each other’s work and finding inspiration and collaboration along the way, all facilitated by Wyoming Humanities. The Cohort includes online quarterly meetings, dedicated time to celebrate and promote each organization, a robust humanities program and events calendar, and numerous other opportunities for connection and growth among the Cohort.
