Lattie F. Coor Programming Grants

A portion of the Lattie F. Coor Endowment is available each year to assist individual faculty, departments, and programs with co-sponsorship of programming efforts in the humanities and fine arts. These may include workshops, symposia, conferences, and performances, but most often are meant for one-time guest lectures or speakers. Lattie F. Coor Programming Grants are designed for events being planned in collaboration among multiple departments, centers, programs, or units. The maximum amount of any award will be $2,500. For larger programs or events, please see the websites for the Coor Project Award and Coor Working Groups.
