About
Among Scarecrow Video's vast physical media archive one will find shelves loaded with VHS-only treasures: analog releases of feature films, instructional videos, DIY presentations, and all manner of cultural ephemera that never made the leap to digital formats. With the archivists at Moving Image Preservation of Puget Sound, Scarecrow has been working to digitize these releases and preserve these irreplaceable objects of our cultural heritage.
When MIPoPS received its first boxes of videotapes from Scarecrow to digitize, they were loaded with rare artifacts of our queer history, including decades of Seattle-specific memories: 30-year-old footage of Neighbors, R Place, and clubs of days long past; lesbian buddy-detective films that look suspiciously like they were shot in the offices of The Stranger; interviews with attendees of an International Association of Gay and Lesbian Square Dance Clubs convention; and so much more.
Seattle's queer roots run deep, and in its 37 years, Scarecrow has absorbed a share of that history. Come prepared to be enchanted and enlightened as we dive into this newly digitized treasure trove and present some highlights of queer culture from Seattle and around the globe. |

Accessibility
| |
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. 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.
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 rajah@nwfilmforum.org
