Relocation Guide|Moving to Salem Oregon

Sundance.

The cream of the crop of Independent Film Festivals here in the US.  Many films get debuted, critiqued, and start their journey into the mainstream from there.

Obviously Salem isn’t Park City, UT (where Sundance is held) BUT, that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy our own Film Festival.  Salem Oregon has an independent film festival, currently in its 5th year.   Movies are held in three venues around town, the original independent theater, High Street Cinema, the new independent theater, Salem Cinema, and the Grand Theater downtown.

Whether you are looking for a drama, documentary, comedy…or everything in-between, this is an excellent local event for lovers of the indie movies.

If you are considering moving to Salem Oregon and wonder what our arts scene looks like, check out some of our other posts about things to do.

One of the hard parts about moving to a new city is finding out what activities there are to do.  If you are into the art scene and are moving to a smaller city like Salem, Oregon that can be a bit harder sometimes. 

One of the local options for people into the art scene is the Hallie Ford Museum of Art if actually a part of Willamette University.   If you are looking to attend a lecture, exhibit, or generally be involved in the local art scene, Hallie Ford is one of the places you will want to consider.
