Sponsor a filmmaker during the Women's Residency Program, part of the Gabrielle A. Hanna Provincetown Film Institute of the Provincetown Film Society. Your sponsorship will go toward travel, lodging and stipend. During the residency, you will be invited share a meal with the filmmakers.  

As part of the 100-year tradition of Provincetown as America’s oldest art colony, the Women’s Residency Program allows established women-identifying filmmakers from around the world who have had films in PIFF the opportunity to work in Provincetown during the off-season alongside other artists and writers who use the solitude of the outer Cape Cod area as inspiration for their work.

The program offers one or two-week residencies in Provincetown that includes a small travel stipend, lodging, and roundtrip travel from Boston to Provincetown. Residents can have uninterrupted time to work on any current project or choose to engage with the vibrant community of Provincetown for the exchange of ideas, skills, and experiences. Potential applicants are nominated by a panel of film industry professionals.

Past residents have included Jennie Livingston (Paris Is Burning), Michelle Boyaner (Packed In A Trunk: The Lost Art of Edith Lake Wilkinson), Alice Wu (Saving Face).
