If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at Our phone number (20) is voicemail-only, but we check it often. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject! The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Also available at the front desk is a Sensory Kit you can borrow, which includes a Communication Card, noise-reducing headphones, and fidget toys. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. We are working on creating the option of removable armrests! The majority of seats in our main cinema are 21″ wide from armrest to armrest some seats are 19″ wide. Our upstairs workshop room is not wheelchair accessible. All doors in Northwest Film Forum are non-motorized, and may require staff assistance to open.

Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum’s ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible.
