HOW DOES SWFF WORK?
Start by submitting your photo (limit of 1 per category or youth) and/or film here by 11:59 pm October 1, 2026.
Once submissions have closed, finalist selection will begin. All selected finalists will be contacted by the beginning of November.
SWFF will be shown in Terrace, BC, and other participating locations. Participants will vote on their favourite films and photos. Judges representing Skeena communities will select the finalists from all photo and video entries. Community votes will be tallied after the tour, and all the winners will be announced in December.
