Youth Summer Camps

Every summer, Northwest Film Forum offers camps for youth to get hands-on with the art and craft of film and media making and to develop their creativity and voice.
Summer Youth Filmmaking Camps and Programs will be offered in-person in 2023.
Summer camps begin July 10th and run through August. NWFF will offer in-person day camps. Our summer camps include Stop Motion Animation, Special Effects, as well as camps for queer youth.
Email questions about camps to Nico (nico@nwfilmforum.0rg).

Summer Camp FAQ
What is your camp refund policy?
In case your plans change, here is our policy on camp refunds:
- 100% refund if we receive your cancellation notice 7 calendar days before the first day of camp.
- Camps must meet a minimum enrollment requirement to launch, and may be cancelled if the camp does not meet a minimum number of enrolled students. Students will be notified in advance if there is limited enrollment for a camp, and can receive a full refund, which may take up to 30 business days to process and transfer.
