The new Oregon Film Museum expands the facilities and programming of the current institution housed in the former Clatsop County Jail -- a celebrated landmark since its role in The Goonies -- and sets the groundwork for Astoria’s next phase as a cultural node in the Northwest.
The core of the proposed new building’s program is the interaction between Making, Collecting, and Viewing. Interactive exhibits, flexible exhibition spaces and informal screening areas combine with a more formal screening room to provide a complete educational and entertaining museum experience. A rooftop café and open-air movie space offer a unique cinematic experience overlooking the Columbia River.
