Dave Brewis is available for talks, Q&As, and curated screenings, drawing on his work as the creator and director of the documentary series Gatherings.
With a focus on folklore, ritual, landscape, and contemporary culture, Dave’s work explore why ancient customs persist, how communities maintain identity, and how seasonal practices continue to underpin modern life.


Events can be tailored to suit festivals, cinemas, universities, galleries, and community spaces.
Screenings may include episodes or extracts from Gatherings or Dave's wider archive covering the living folklore of UK and France.
Talks can be adapted in length and tone, from informal conversations to in-depth presentations, followed by discussion, or audience Q&A as required.
"Gatherings offered a truly informative and respectful insight into Britain’s living folk traditions, placing the diverse communities and their perspectives at the foreground. Our members found it an incredibly immersive viewing, and it incited a lengthy discussion about the place of local folk customs in a globalised world."
