Homegrown: Screen Dance by Local Artists

This event is part of the Brighton Screendance Festival Pass. For £15 you get access to all festival events (excluding Nature Inside), which is an £8 saving compared to buying each event individually. To take part in this offer first buy a festival pass here, and then book tickets for each festival event, which will then appear as 'free' to you.

Join us as we celebrate the wealth of local talent in the South East and present a series of films by local artists making dance for screen.

We’re also proud to be premiering films created as part of our Young Filmmakers Commission, in exciting formats across the building, presented alongside Homegrown. 

Expect an afternoon of playful, curious and awe-inspiring screendance, with the full line-up to be announced in October.
