Virtual Screening Room
Description
The Blue River flows over 40 miles and is a vital source of connection for the communities and ecosystems along its path. It is important to restore the Blue River so communities can fully experience its natural benefits and develop a deeper appreciation for nature. The Blue River Documentary explores the ways the Blue River needs our help, and the ways restoration and bring communities together.
The Heartland Conservation Alliance and The Nature Conservancy present The Blue River, a documentary focusing on the River's unique and important qualities. Each event runs 7:00 - 8:30 p.m. and features a screening of the documentary followed by a Q&A to discuss how the River relates to a weekly theme.
The screenings will take place on Zoom.
