TICKETS ARE FREE! PLEASE DONATE TO THE SIFF STAFF FUND!
About
(????, ????, ????, 82 min, in ??? with ??? subtitles)
A pipe burst at The Egyptian and SIFF staff need our community’s support! At the moment, the the length of the closure and it’s effect on staff is a bit unclear, so we are trying to raise funds as a safety net. If recovery funds aren’t needed, money raised will go to support the SIFF workers union!
Join us on November 13th at 7pm for a free screening of a VERY secret and VERY good movie. While admission is free, donations to SIFF staff’s fundraiser are VERY strongly encouraged in lieu of the cost of a ticket. Presenting proof of donation at the concession counter will get you a free small popcorn 😉
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum’s ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. All doors in Northwest Film Forum are non-motorized, and may require staff assistance to open. Our upstairs workshop room is not wheelchair accessible.
The majority of seats in our main cinema are 21″ wide from armrest to armrest; some seats are 19″ wide. We are working on creating the option of removable armrests!
We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter. Also available at the front desk is a Sensory Kit you can borrow, which includes a Communication Card, noise-reducing headphones, and fidget toys.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at suji@nwfilmforum.org. Our phone number (206-329-2629) is voicemail-only, but we check it often.
Made possible due to a grant from Seattle Office of Arts & Culture, in partnership with Sensory Access, our Sensory Access document presents a visual and descriptive walk-through of the NWFF space. View it in advance of attending an in-person event at bit.ly/nwffsocialnarrativepdf, in order to prepare yourself for the experience.
NWFF patrons will be required to wear masks that cover both nose and mouth while in the building. Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them. Recent variants of COVID-19 readily infect and spread between individuals regardless of vaccination status.
