2025 Graton Fellowship

The Graton Fellowship, established in 2023, was designed to support Indigenous artists from California-based tribes, both federally and non-federally recognized.

The 2025 Graton fellows will receive support for a project in development or production, receiving critical financial and creative assistance throughout 2025. The Graton fellows will each be granted $25,000, mentorship from Indigenous Program staff, access to creative and professional development opportunities, and an invitation to attend the Sundance Film Festival. The Graton Fellowship is possible through an endowment from the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria, which will also facilitate scholarships for Indigenous Californians on Sundance Collab.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
