Bristol's Hidden River - Short Film Screening with Q&A, and Art Exhibition

Welcome to Bristol's Hidden River - Short Film Screening with Q&A, and Art Exhibition at Bristol Megascreen in Bristol Aquarium. Join us on January 22, 2026 at 7:00 PM for an evening filled with creativity and inspiration.

This short film follows the River Frome from its quiet rural origins into the heart of Bristol, channelled beneath the city through hidden culverts. Along its journey, the film uncovers the surprising resilience of the river’s wildlife, and celebrates the dedication of local communities working tirelessly to protect, restore, and reconnect people with this often-overlooked river.

Arrive at Bristol Aquarium to welcome drinks and an exclusive art exhibition, showcasing river-themed artwork and sculptures from communities local to the Bristol Frome.

The screening will be followed by a panel of filmmakers and BART staff for a Q&A.

Entry to the scerening is free, however any donations to contribute towards Bristol Avon Rivers Trust's vital work would be greatly appreciated. Donations can be made here on our website: https://bristolavonriverstrust.org/donations
