Harbor Island Studios, owned by King County, Washington, is a film production facility unveiled in 2021. This production studio represents King County’s first major public investment to bring back a once-thriving film industry and hundreds of family wage, creative economy jobs.

This offers an opportunity for members to tour the facility, ask questions of the King County Creative employees overseeing its operations, and learn more about the County's investment in the industry in the region. 

A virtual tour and Q&A session will be provided in the near future. Arrangements are still being made with King County Creative.
