The Sundance Institute jointly with the Sundance Institute Workers United announces the Institute’s voluntary recognition of the staff union represented by the Communications Workers of America (CWA) Local 9003 to function as the bargaining representative for their employees.

“CWA Local 9003 is very happy to announce that we have received voluntary recognition from the Sundance Institute. We warmly welcome the dedicated professionals at the Institute into our union family,” said Marisa Remski, president of CWA Local 9003. “This recognition represents an important milestone in our ongoing efforts to strengthen solidarity, promote fairness, and empower creative workers throughout the industry. Together, we look forward to continuing the work of building a stronger, more equitable future for all workers in the creative community.”

“Our deep respect for our staff and strong support of unions guided the Leadership of the Sundance Institute to voluntarily recognize a collective bargaining unit,” said Trista Schroeder, Sundance Institute General Counsel. “We are looking forward to entering the process with our colleagues to reach an outcome that reflects our mutual respect and shared mission.”
