Using the humanities, we connect with people across Vermont to create just, vibrant, and resilient communities and to inspire a lifelong love of learning.
To better support public humanities work across Vermont, we have exponentially grown the amount of money we distribute to Vermont non-profits and other organizations through our grants programs.
For the 23rd year of the Vermont Reads program, we invite Vermont communities to plan projects centered around The Light Pirate by Lily Brooks-Dalton.
Please note: our original order of 3100 copies have all been claimed, but we will receive a second shipment of 1500 copies in early January, 2026. At this point we are planning to ship books to new Vermont Reads applicants no sooner than mid-January.
