Community
Salford has always been a festival with a strong community focus. We pride ourselve on being a people's festival. This section of the website will be dedicated to the work of Community organisations and filmmakers, and above all to the communities themselves.
As the site develops, we will be populating this page with information about training possibilities, projects and events and the ways in which people can get involved. This will be a year-round resource, presented in association with our festival partners at CRIS. Those of you already involved in creative work within the community might like to sign up to CRIS's CREATIVE DIRECTORY.
CRIS also oversee and run Salford Film Festival's Youth and Community Strand. This year's festival sees the return of our PATHWAYS Programme, celebrating the work produced by community filmmakers, and an expansion of the SALFORD YOUTH FILM FESTIVAL, featuring screenings, workshops and the world premiere of the specially-commissioned multimedia piece DIRTY OLD TOWN, in which the young musicians of tomorrow stake their claim to pride of place in our SALFORD IS SOUND strand!
