Seattle Deaf Film Festival Postponed

On March 11, 2020, Washington State Governor Jay Inslee announced proactive measures to curb the spread of COVID-19, including a ban on all events over 250 people, with a prohibition on smaller events if they are unable to conform to social distancing requirements. The press conference is available here.

 SDFF is one of Deaf Spotlight's most treasured events, giving us the opportunity to gather and watch new works by Deaf and hard of hearing filmmakers. After careful consideration, we have come to the conclusion that we must postpone SDFF 2020. We made this decision out of deep care for the health and safety of our community.

All current tickets will be honored, and further ticket sales are suspended for the time being. We will resume sales once we have a new date, which will be announced later this year. More details will be announced when available.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you. We look forward to continuing to explore, create, and share artistic inspirations with the community.

Thank you for your understanding. If you have questions, you may reach us at sdff@deafspotlight.org.

Sincerely,

Michael Anthony, SDFF Festival Director

Patty Liang, Deaf Spotlight Executive Director
