What’s On

Artivism x Upfest (Drop-In)

Tobacco Factory
Raleigh Rd, Southville, Bristol BS3 1TF

Bristol’s histories of protest, resistance and public creativity collide in a powerful afternoon of film, sound, public art and creative disruption.

For one afternoon, Artivism x Upfest explores what civil rights means in Bristol today — and what it could become by 2029.

In partnership with Bristol Radical Film Club, the programme features films exploring the St Pauls Uprisings, a film with David Olusoga in conversation with Bristol Bus Boycott pioneers. Also, a preview of concepts and imagery from Ella-Mia Grant’s upcoming mural ahead of its live Upfest painting.

Expect rebel soundtracks, placard-making, and opportunities to help shape Bristol’s first Civil Rights Manifesto.

Suitable for all.

No booking required.
