2025 Summer Film Photo Contest Winners

2025 Summer Film Photo Contest Winners

 

Project Statement

As we begin to settle into the wet, grey, moody PNW fall weather, we'd like to take a moment to reflect back on the sunny days of summer past as we announce our winners from our 2025 Summer Film Contest. From our favorite parks, forests, and beaches, to our homes, neighborhoods, and favorite local haunts, our community captured the essence of summer in the PNW, and we are thrilled to share these winning images!

Many thanks to the artists who submitted their work to this year's show, and congratulations to our nine winners. And a huge thank you to our sponsor, Pelican Brewing!⁠
