We the People in Illinois
to develop statewide public programs on the history of American music, Westward expansion, Illinois history, and other important topics in American studies.
The Illinois Humanities council seeks $168,740 for We the People in Illinois to develop statewide programs through Museum on Main Street (MOMs), including our Illinois Musical Heritage program; our speakers bureau; and grants. These programs will deal with the history of American music, Westward expansion, Illinois history, and other important topics in American studies. This programming will benefit rural and downstate audiences primarily, though not exclusively.
