The Midshore Riverkeeper Conservancy is hosting its 3rd annual Wild and Scenic Film Festival in Easton on Friday, November 16, at 6:00 pm. Last year’s film festival was a full house, and tickets are selling fast again this year.

The festival will feature high-quality, inspiring and educational films, that aim to increase the groundswell of environmental interest and motivate people to go out and make a difference for our local rivers.

“There will be eight films in the line-up about real conservation issues, some local, some national, and some international,” said Natalie Costanzo, from the Midshore Riverkeeper Conservancy. “This year’s lineup includes a film by the granddaughter of Jacques Cousteau, Alexandra Cousteau, a local film about fish, and another movie about one Filipino man’s use of plastic soda bottles to create solar-powered lights.”

Liza Ledford from the Avalon Theatre says: “Hosting the Wild and Scenic Film Festival is always a great pleasure for the Avalon Theatre. As we get closer to the event there is a growing excitement and increase in ticket sales. People are really starting to mark their calendars each year for this night.”

The $50 ticket includes an open bar and food this year, as well as an opportunity to bid on over thirty silent auction items.

Proceeds go to support the work of Midshore Riverkeeper Conservancy in restoring and protecting our local rivers.
