With a focus on the power of storytelling, BFMAF hosts a year-round programme of film events, workshops and conversations. Named after the Northumbrian dialect, The Burr of Berwick invites responses to the histories, communities and stories of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
Based at 22 Bridge Street, The Burr offers regular opportunities to meet up, share ideas and discuss our complex and changing world through film. The programme includes artist development workshops, exhibitions, public commissions and pop-up events.
Pop into the venue or join the next event to explore the histories that shaped our present, and come together to discover possible futures.
The Burr of Berwick is supported by Create Berwick (CCZ) and funded by North East Combined Authority and Northumberland County Council.
Our next Vertical Screen Commission is What would it take to convince you that something was real? by Andrew Wilson. Catch the short film through the window of The Burr of Berwick on 22 Bridge Street 24hrs a day.
