The Vermont Humanities  Speakers Bureau  provides informative and thought-provoking presentations by scholars and experts on diverse humanities topics. These rich experiences are accessible for Vermont non-profit organizations to present in their community for a small fee.

How it works

1. Browse the catalogue of speakers and topics, and review our Speakers Bureau Guidelines and FAQs.
2. Contact a speaker to set a tentative date and time, and discuss any special arrangements.
3. Request the program using our online form at least six weeks in advance. We’ll respond within one week.
4. Publicize the event once it’s been approved. Contact the speaker to confirm. We’ll mail you a packet of promotional materials and paperwork.
5. Host the event: provide a comfortable space, introduce the speaker, and encourage attendees to sign in and share feedback.
6. Submit our online Host Survey, and mail the program fee and paperwork to VHC.
