The Sundance Institute today announced the launch of the Latine Fellowship and Collab Scholarship—a new program intended to bolster Latinx representation in independent media.
The program will provide fellowships and scholarships to emerging Latinx artists, also offering professional development opportunities, virtual gatherings to connect with like-minded artists and Creator+ memberships to Sundance Collab, Sundance Institute’s digital learning space for artists from around the world.
The Latine Fellowship will provide six emerging Latinx artists who have previously been supported by the Institute with a year-long, multi-disciplinary fellowship experience beginning in August, offering bespoke creative and tactical support along with unrestricted, non-recoupable grants of $10,000.
