Sundance Institute Archives & collection

Founded in 1981, Sundance Institute is a nonprofit organization that discovers and supports independent film, media, and theatre artists from the U.S. and around the world.

Sundance Institute helps artists tell their stories—and the Sundance Institute Archives & Collection works to protect and preserve them. We are passionate about preserving and sharing the stories of our supported artists and the history of the organization for generations to come.
