Our events bring people together through talks, workshops and live projects that explore documentary practice today. They draw on collaborations with artists, researchers, community groups and cultural partners, creating space to think about how we understand real lives and shared experience.

Events take place throughout the year in community venues, cultural spaces and partner organisations. They support discussion, learning and creative exchange, offering routes into the cultural, political and artistic questions that shape the world around us.

This work relies on support. Donations help us plan and deliver events, build new collaborations and sustain the wider activity that keeps these opportunities available to people across the North East and beyond.

All fundraising goes to the AmberSide Trust (registered charity number: 1160760).
