The Northern Marianas Humanities Council is soliciting nominations for the 2015 Governor’s Humanities Awards.
This event, held annually in October as a part of CNMI Humanities Month, recognizes outstanding contributions to the humanities by individuals and organizations in the community.
Nominees should have a notable humanities achievement in the past year, as demonstrated in any of the following four categories: Research and Publication in the Humanities; Preservation of Traditional Cultural Practices; Preservation of CNMI History; and Outstanding Humanities Teacher (in both classroom and non-classroom settings).
A fifth category, Lifetime Achievement, recognizes significant contributions to the humanities over multiple decades. This award may be given posthumously.
Nomination forms and instructions are available at the council’s office in the Springs Plaza Building, Gualo Rai, or on the council website at www.northernmarianashumanities.org.
Nominations are due no later than 4:30pm on Friday, Oct. 16.
Awards will be presented during a ceremony to be held in late October.
