Seattle Latino Film Festival Expands North with First-Ever Shoreline Matinee Program at The Crest

October 12, 13 & 15, 2026 

SEATTLE, WA — The Seattle Latino Film Festival (SLFF) will make a significant expansion during its 18th Annual Edition by presenting, for the first time, a dedicated series of weekday daytime screenings in Shoreline, creating a new gateway to Latino and Latin American cinema for audiences in North Seattle, Shoreline, and communities throughout northern King County.

The three-film matinee program at Landmark’s Crest Cinema Center represents an important step in expanding SLFF’s geographic reach.

By bringing the festival to a major cinema venue in the north, SLFF aims to make its programming more accessible to residents who may not regularly travel to downtown Seattle for cultural events. The initiative also invites audiences of different ages and backgrounds to discover filmmakers and stories from across the Latino world.

The Shoreline program is made possible through the 4Culture Reduced Admission Access program, helping SLFF expand affordable access to cultural programming and strengthen its connection with communities throughout King County.

“This is an important step for SLFF,” said Jorge Enrique González Pacheco, Founder and Chief Programmer.
“For 18 years, we have worked to bring Latino cinema to audiences across the region. Bringing weekday matinees to Shoreline opens a new door—making the festival more accessible while inviting North Seattle and northern King County communities to become part of our cultural conversation.”

The Shoreline matinees are part of SLFF’s broader commitment to cultural access, representation, and community engagement. The festival presents cinema connecting audiences with diverse experiences, histories, identities, and perspectives from Latin America, Spain, the Caribbean, and Latino communities in the United States.
