South Dakota Humanities Council
South Dakota Humanities Council's mission is to celebrate literature, promote civil conversation, and tell the stories that define our state. Founded in 1972, the South Dakota Humanities Council (SDHC) is an independent, non-profit organization that serves as the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) endorsing public humanities throughout South Dakota. As the only state-wide organization dedicated to developing, implementing, promoting, and supporting state humanities programs, SDHC's mission is to "celebrate literature, promote civil conversation, and tell the stories that define our state." We provide public programming in history, literature, archaeology, and other humanities disciplines while working with museums, libraries, and other state cultural, educational, and community-based organizations to deliver programs to South Dakotans.
