**PURCHASE OF PASS GETS YOU INTO ONE SCREENING OF EACH FILM, YOU CHOOSE WHEN!**
John Lilly is perhaps one of the strangest people to ever have any major impact on American popular culture, and this weekend Northwest Film Forum presents a double feature of two films that have his fingerprints all over them. John Lilly and the Earth Coincidence Control Office is the new documentary from Michael Almereyda & Courtney Stephens exploring Lilly’s work and lasting impact, and Altered States takes Lilly’s work and concepts and dramatizes them in a way that only someone like Ken Russell with a Hollywood budget could pull off.
Expand your consciousness for ONE WEEKEND ONLY!
And as a bonus, we will have the video game Ecco The Dolphin, one of the most surreal gaming experiences created, available to play in the lobby!
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.
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 Director of Exhibition at cole@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 strongly encouraged 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.
