We socio with the Sundance Institute to help identify and support 18- to 25-year-old emerging documentary and narrative filmmakers. By sponsoring Sundance Ignite Fellowships, we give these artists the chance to develop their craft and careers.
Adobe is the first brand to create a Sundance Institute fellowship for women. Our goal is to discover and spotlight women artists who are creating great work in film and other disciplines.
We support the creative community and honor people whose work elevates the role of visual content in culture. This program gives individuals the opportunity to focus on a creative project for one year to explore their passion and process.
We support the National GEM Consortium’s mission to help students from underrepresented groups pursue graduate degrees in STEM fields. Each year we grant 10 fellowships to cover part of the students’ tuition and fees, and we also offer a summer internship.
Last year, in response to extensive need in the creative community for monetary support and career guidance, we decided to establish the Creative Residency Community Fund. The Fund enables us to support a variety of creators by hiring them for Adobe-commissioned projects.
