Collaboration is at the heart of LandxSea.
Our Community Partners are environmental, cultural, educational and place-based organisations that help bring the festival to life.
They contribute not only behind the scenes, but within screenings, conversations, workshops, public events and community activity throughout the programme.
These relationships connect the stories on screen with the people, knowledge and practical work shaping life in Angus, across Scotland and beyond.
Together, we create a festival that is inspiring, rooted, responsive and relevant.
What Community Partners Bring
Every partnership is different and shaped around shared interests, expertise and capacity.
Ideas and Insight
Local knowledge, lived experience and specialist perspectives that deepen the conversations around our films.
Speakers and Facilitators
Contributors who can take part in Q&As, workshops, discussions, assemblies and creative events.
Activities and Events
Workshops, displays, performances, demonstrations and participatory activities inspired by festival themes.
Community Connections
Relationships with local groups, audiences and networks that help the programme reach the people it will most resonate with.
Promotional Support
Sharing screenings and activities through newsletters, social channels, community listings and word of mouth.
Lasting Impact
Ways for audiences to continue learning, connecting and taking action after the credits roll.
Who We Work With
We welcome conversations with:
- Local community organisations and voluntary groups
- Environmental charities, campaigns and networks
- Arts, culture and heritage organisations
- Schools, colleges and educational programmes
- Researchers, universities and science organisations
- Youth, wellbeing and community-development groups
- Organisations working around land, sea, climate, food, culture or place
You may already have a particular film, activity or subject in mind, or simply want to explore where our work overlaps. Some of our strongest partnerships begin with an informal conversation and grow from there.
