Create Community 2026

Celebrate 5 years of Creatives For Culture. For the first time we have early bird + student tickets as well as extended networking time!

Our annual event CREATE COMMUNITY is back and this year, it’s extra special as we celebrate 5 years of Creatives For Culture

Over the past five years, we’ve connected artists from across the UK, built a strong creative network, and supported filmmakers in bringing their work to wider audiences. As a collective, we’ve grown in ways we’re incredibly proud of forming partnerships with organisation such as GA and KIMFF, creating work experience opportunities for young creatives, expanding and strengthening our vendor community, and hosting free public screenings for films previously only shown at festivals.

We’ve also used our platform to support other grassroots organisers and continue building a culture rooted in collaboration, access, and creativity.

As a registered CIC, every ticket directly supports what we do; from paying artists and running events (including free ones), to creating opportunities for emerging creatives and sustaining our community year-round.

What to expect at CREATE COMMUNITY:

• Film Screenings + Q&A
  Watch a curated selection of film submissions followed by live Q&As with the filmmakers and some recorded Q&As from our filmmakers across the world. For the first time this year our submission was open to global.
• Guest Industry Speaker
  Sarah Boyks, a film producer for Blank Canvas Pictures and an experienced production manager is our Guest Speaker for this year. Produced 6 Short Films (Incl. BAFTA consideration), currently developing her first feature film. She was production manager on The Christophers, and on an action thriller starring Jean Reno and worked on Netflix's Queen Charlotte. Gain insight, inspiration, and the chance to ask your questions directly.
