Sundance Institute is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the discovery and development of independent artists and audiences. Through its programs, the Institute seeks to discover, support, and inspire independent film and media artists from the United States and around the world, and to introduce audiences to their new work.
The Golden Globe Foundation supports our Feature Film Program, which fosters the development of outstanding new voices in independent feature-length fiction filmmaking, and our Press Inclusion initiative, the Institute’s effort to cultivate a more representative press corps at the Sundance Film Festival by providing multi-faceted support to journalists from underrepresented communities, specifically, critics who identify as BIPOC, women, LGBTQ+, and/or people with disabilities.
Sundance Institute artist support programs provide a wide range of resources to emerging independent voices, including residency labs and intensives, granting, expert mentorship, and community as they develop their careers and share their stories with the world.
