Berkshire Film and Media Collaborative's Summer Networking Night
About this Event
The Berkshire Film and Media Collaborative (BFMC) is bringing our popular Networking Night to the Berkshire Innovation Center in Pittsfield, MA.
Our last two Networking Nights sold out, and we’re excited to bring that same energy to the Berkshire Innovation Center for another evening of conversation, connection, and collaboration.
Join filmmakers, media professionals, educators, students, entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, and creatives from across the region for an evening designed to bring together the people helping shape the creative and economic landscape of the Berkshires and Western Massachusetts.
Whether you work behind the scenes, support the arts, are building your career in film and media, or simply want to connect with others in the creative community, this event is a great opportunity to meet new people, share ideas, and grow your network.
Enjoy lively conversation, light refreshments, and the inspiring setting of the Berkshire Innovation Center. Don’t miss the chance to connect with collaborators, learn more about BFMC’s work, and celebrate the growing film and media community in our region.
Admission is free, but space is limited to 100 people! RSVP requested by June 19.
