Arts Programme

Our Arts Programme presents the best in international contemporary art practice and research through exhibitions, talks, events and new commissions. The artists we exhibit expand the boundaries of non-fiction through moving images, immersive technologies, sound and performance.

The 2021 Arts Programme comprises three exhibitions, three new commissions (including the collaborative project Right on Time Radio), virtual and IRL events, as well as associated screenings and talks. Some of our programme is viewable in galleries and cinemas in Sheffield, while nearly all of our programme is viewable on our Online Exhibitions Platform, accessible during the festival dates. 

The Sheffield DocFest Arts Programme is free and accessible to all—both in person and online—and is supported by Arts Council England.
