EXCLUSIVE: The nonprofit Sundance Institute announced the eight women selected for the 2023 Sundance Women to Watch x Adobe Fellowship.

They were all chosen for their exceptional talent and commitment to furthering their creative practice. “We’re excited to partner with Adobe to champion and uplift this talented group of women artists who are working across creative disciplines,” said Michelle Satter, Founding Senior Director, Artist Programs at Sundance Institute. “Our 2023 cohort, selected from underrepresented communities, will receive granting and a continuum of support from Sundance and Adobe as they take their next steps to develop and sustain their careers.” All fellows receive support through a $6,250 cash grant; skill-building workshops; referrals to career development opportunities; a 12-month membership to Adobe Creative Cloud to create, share their stories, and further refine their craft; and a connection to the Sundance ELEVATE professional development initiative.

Created in 2020 under the name Women at Sundance Adobe Fellowship, the program was formed by the Institute and Adobe around a shared commitment to nurture, develop, and champion underrepresented voices at pivotal moments in their careers.

Filmmakers are nominated from across Sundance artist programs, including the Documentary Film Program; the Episodic Program; the Equity, Impact, and Belonging Program; the Feature Film Program; the Indigenous Program; and Artist Accelerator.
