Welcome to the Sunrise Gallery

In April of 2020, following the cancellation of our 34th annual spring conference in New Harmony, Indiana, we embarked on an ambitious process to dig deeper into our mission. We commissioned 17 writers to create short scripts based on the ideals of The New Harmony Project: hope, courage, strength, and the resiliency of the human spirit.

Over the course of eight months, we worked with filmmakers to transform seven of those scripts into fully produced short films. The tireless efforts of more than 75 artists from New York to Los Angeles, and right in our backyard in Central Indiana made this project possible. Their efforts have created beautiful, thought-provoking, inspiring films and scripts that examine and lift up the best of our collective humanity.

We invite you to look around, explore the films, scripts, interviews, and performances by Indianapolis-based actors on each of the script and writer pages. We hope that you’ll like and share the content on social media, and help us spread the word about this incredible digital gallery!
