About Humanities Washington

OUR MISSION: Humanities Washington opens minds and bridges divides by creating spaces to explore different perspectives. OUR LENS: The humanities reflect our past, but just as importantly, our present and future, serving as a dynamic light to engage, inspire, challenge, and empower Washingtonians. The humanities encourage us to investigate, speak, listen, read, reflect, question, think, grow, and act. Through the humanities and from a variety of perspectives, we provide programs and experiences of lasting value, creating insight, understanding, wisdom, and a deeper appreciation for all that we share. OUR WORK: Humanities Washington is the state's flagship non-profit for promoting and providing programs based in the humanities. We play a critical role in addressing an immediate and growing crisis concerning community identity and understanding, respect for other perspectives, and the ability of communities to work together to shape a better future. Our work in cultural education promotes awareness of the history of local communities and its residents, provides opportunities for people to gather and learn more about their unique past and shared present, and nurtures relationships that enable us to move forward towards a more prosperous future. We act as a catalyst and facilitator, supporting and partnering with a wide network of communities, organizations, and individuals across the state.
