We’re a program partner, grant-maker, and connector of people and communities. In this complex world the Maine Humanities Council uses old-school tools – books, poetry, history, big ideas – to foster meaningful connection and positive change in communities throughout Maine. Our work takes the long view, takes humanity seriously, and requires commitment and delight.

Happy Pride Month! Today, we want to uplift the wonderful speakers apart of our Maine Speaks program who are sharing personal experience and history with communities across our state.

If you're interested in bringing these talks to your community, head to our website to apply for a Maine Speaks program!
