The West Virginia Humanities Council has announced the suspension of statewide grantmaking due to the cancellation of federal funds from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The decision, made under the direction of the Department of Government Efficiency, leaves the council without the necessary funding to continue awarding grants. With no indication of when federal support may be restored, the council has been forced to indefinitely suspend their grantmaking program. This announcement comes after every state humanities council received a Notice of Grant Termination from the NEH, citing the cancellation of federal funds for the remainder of 2025. WOAY will continue to monitor this developing story and provide updates as more information becomes available.
