Hedgebrook Filmmakers Showcase

  • Whidbey Island Center for the Arts PO Box 52 | 565 Camano Avenue Langley, WA 98260 (map)

For 35 years, Hedgebrook has lifted up the voices of women authoring change on the page, on the screen, and on the stage. If you love films written, directed and/or produced by talented women with a passion for visual storytelling, you won’t want to miss this event!

This year, the Hedgebrook Filmmakers’ Showcase features a selection of shorts and features, both documentary and fiction, from independent films to the making of a Hollywood hit, with a filmmaker discussion following each film. Expand your mind through their storytelling, and learn what inspired them to create and share these films. Grab your favorite snack, gather your favorite people, and come support the four featured filmmakers!

You can watch in person at NWFF on opening day, May 19, or closing night at WICA on June 3, or virtually from May 20 – June 2. People aged 13+ are all welcome to enjoy the showcase.

Presented in partnership with the CineStory Foundation, Northwest Film Forum and Whidbey Island Center for the Arts.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
