For twenty-five years, the New York Council for the Humanities has helped New Yorkers challenge their minds and expand their horizons. This October, we invite you to help us celebrate the third annual State Humanities Month. The exhibitions, lectures, walking tours, film screenings, and family events featured in this calendar offer many opportunities to explore the Empire State's rich history, fascinating heritage, and diverse cultures.
