The Berkshire Film and Media Collaborative has hosted a quarterly networking event in each of the western Massachusetts counties over the past year: Northampton, Springfield, Greenfield and Lenox.

“Our focus is to create new business opportunities for our local film and media artists, “says Diane Pearlman, Executive Director of BFMC. “It’s exciting to see people meet other creatives from down the street or the next town. New business relationships are always sparked.”

The event is generously sponsored by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, Tanglewood, Hadley Farms Meeting House, Limelight Productions, and the Economic Development Council of Western Mass.
