About BMFF
Hosted by Pickford Film Center and Make.Shift Art Space, the fourth annual Bellingham Music Film Festival is a showcase of music through the medium of film. The films include music videos and shorts all focused around music-inspired subject matter. The Bellingham Music Film Festival is an inclusive space inviting both student and professional filmmakers from both the Pacific Northwest and international landscape.
Bellingham, Washington has always been a hub for music and film. BMFF celebrates the union of the two by screening exclusively music-related films and connecting this community on a global scale. Not only will a wide range of film formats be featured at multiple screening sites, but the weekend will be powered by live music. Films and music will be playing at Make.Shift Art Space and Pickford Film Center in Bellingham, Washington.
