25th Community Screenings

Marking 25 years of Somerset House, this series celebrates film and moving image work from across our resident creative community.

Inviting some of our 600 resident organisations and artists to screen their film and moving image work, this series creates a space for peer-to-peer dialogue, sharing the processes and collaborations involved.

From documentaries that surface stories of migration and the environment, to films borne out of the exceptional creative talent of neurodiverse directors and performers - enjoy visual storytelling that pushes boundaries at the intersection of creativity and social change.

Join us on Wednesday evenings to discover newly released films, gain behind-the-scenes insights and leave inspired
