We lead a diverse community on a search for urgent expressions of the human experience, spotlighting marginalized narratives and underrepresented visions.

Each year, we: Host 3 LABS for 36 artists-in-residence, preparing 24 features for production and 8+ shorts for distribution; Design 24+ WORKSHOPS for 400+ participants with 168 established guest/teaching artists; Program 60+ EVENTS by 100+ artists for a local audience of 3000+ and an international membership; Manage $500k+ in grants toward sponsored artist’s PRODUCTION; Fund a FELLOWSHIP that pairs 4 artists and 4 writers, each receiving $20k and publication support; Create groundbreaking doc projects, including the neighborhood history, Living Los Sures (2015) and the immersive performance, Say Something Bunny! (2017). Through this work, UnionDocs provides a vibrant space where storytelling, experimentation, journalism, politics, and poetry intersect and engage a multiplicity of audiences.
