Raíces Cultural Center was a featured grantee in this event and participated in the panel discussion.

From the New Jersey Council for the Humanities event description:

"Join us for an interactive conversation about how public humanities have affected New Jerseyans over the past fifty years.

The New Jersey Council for the Humanities has been helping grantees and program partners harness the power of the public humanities for fifty years. Over the past five decades, NJCH:

• Administered millions of dollars in grant funding as the nonprofit state partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
• Helped hundreds of New Jersey communities bring meaningful projects to their audiences, fostering an informed and empathetic citizenry.
• Ensured access to interesting and thought-provoking discussions and presentations for tens of millions of New Jerseyans.

Join us for a dialogue about the history of the Council and how its present and future work will continue to shape our state featuring five organizations who represent the breadth and depth of NJCH’s grantees. Later in the program, NJCH will introduce the new Stanley N. Katz Prize for Excellence in Public Humanities, which will be awarded for the first time this year in honor of our 50th anniversary."
