Port Townsend Film Festival: Port Townsend, WA


Port Townsend Film Festival
211 Taylor Street, Suite 401A, Port Townsend, WA

Launching with the motto "A film lover's block party celebrating great films and filmmakers,” the first Port Townsend Film Festival launched on September 22, 2000. We closed off Taylor Street and brought in hay bale seating for an evening of free outdoor movies, opened three indoor movie venues, and screened 24 documentary, feature, and short films over three days and nights.

Moving forward 17 years, we now screen more than 90 films in seven venues! It’s completely walkable, includes a big outdoor dinner for passholders, Q&A and panel discussions with filmmakers, and great parties. We still invite the community to fill Taylor Street on three evenings, for the free outdoor movies, and offer free films day and night in the Peter Simpson Free Cinema.

"A Field Guide to Losing Your Friends" will be shown at the following times:

Friday, September 15 at 9:30 am at the Key City Theatre.

Saturday, September 16 at 6:15 pm at the Rose Theatre.
