PARK CITY, UT, UNITED STATES, January 21, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Ericka Nicole Malone Entertainment (ENME) proudly announces the return of The Indie Directors & Creators Lounge, a premier three-day activation during the Film Festival in Park City, taking place January 24-26, 2025, at The Cabin, 427 Main St., Park City, UT 84060. Now in its fifth year, this signature event series continues to celebrate the vibrant tapestry of diverse voices in filmmaking, amplify emerging and veteran talent, and tackle the challenges independent creators face in Hollywood.

Five years ago, the award-winning producer, director and writer Ericka Nicole Malone created the Indie Directors & Creators Lounge, this year themed “Cashmere and Chocolate,” to honor and amplify diverse storytellers while addressing important issues facing underrepresented voices in the entertainment industry. It remains her desire to provide an elegant yet comfortable space for Hollywood veterans and creative newcomers to come together and be educated, entertained and inspired.

Malone, best known for her work on Remember Me: The Mahalia Jackson Story, has created the Lounge as a one-of-a-kind space that unites industry visionaries to foster creativity, collaboration, and transformative storytelling. Over the years, the Lounge has welcomed icons such as Ruth Carter, Ken Whittingham, Rose Catherine Pinkney, Robi Reed, the legendary DJ Spinderella, and SWV, among others.
