YOUTH MOVIE NIGHT 2025
Looking for something that’ll make you laugh, tear up just a little, and feel oddly hopeful about the world—all in over two hours? We got you.
Join the White Salmon Arts Council and the Gorge Impact Film Festival for a totally free, family-friendly evening of short films that are proof that good storytelling doesn’t need 2.5 hours, a car chase, or six sequels.
These tiny cinematic gems range from 2 to 15 minutes—perfect for short attention spans, fidgety kids, overworked parents, and grandparents who “just want to be home by 9.” Every film was hand-picked to inspire joy, wonder, and maybe even a spontaneous group hug (no pressure).
BYO seating situation: beanbags, floor cushions, crash pads, yoga mats, grandma’s recliner, inflatable couches, or the most ridiculous camping chair you own. (We love a dramatic outdoor throne.) We will have a few chairs on hand to share as well. The Society Cafe will be open for drinks and food for purchase, and you’re also welcome to bring your own food and drinks.
This event is free to the public (everyone is invited). But if you’re feeling the warm fuzzies, consider a $10 donation to the 2025 GIFF Youth Filmmaker Grant, helping launch the next generation of filmmakers with heart, humor, and vision.
Whether you're 5 or 85, this is your invitation to a night of cinematic joy and community coziness. Expect to laugh. Maybe cry. Definitely snack. Probably tell your friends, “Wow, that was actually way better than I thought.”
See you there. Bring your heart. And your beanbag ;)
Big thanks to the Society Cafe for generously donating use of their space for this special night of movies.
