WE OUT HERE FESTIVAL
Community event production at We Out Here Festival, blending film, conversation and open water swimming
The work
The project involved producing a morning programme that began with a short film screening, followed by a group lake swim led by Swim Dem Crew. The event was designed to bring people together in an atmosphere that combined creativity, movement and community connection.
The impact
The result was a festival experience that extended beyond music, opening space for dialogue around swimming, wellbeing and representation. By pairing film with collective action in the water, the event strengthened Swim Dem Crew’s community presence and offered festival-goers a meaningful, memorable morning.
