Head over to the Heard Museum on Monday, June 8 at 1:30pm for the second Movie Mondays event of the summer.
The museum is showing a 52-minute film called The Salmon Forest. On Canada’s Pacific coast, winding from the north end of Vancouver Island to the Alaskan border, is more than 400 kilometers of forested inlets and islands. This is the largest tract of intact temperate rainforest on Earth. Here, millions of spawning salmon that support dense concentrations of forest life, including grizzly bears, black bears, bald eagles, seals, otters, gulls and the Gitga’at First Nation, return every year. Bathed in mist and rain year-round, this is one of the most biologically diverse and lush places on the planet.
The screening is free with regular museum admission, which is $10 for adults, $9 for seniors ages 65 and older, $5 for students with a valid student ID, and $3 for children ages 6 to 12. Children under age 6, Heard Museum members and American Indians receive free admission.
The Heard Museum, located at 2301 N. Central Ave., is open from 9:30am to 5pm Monday through Saturday and 11am to 5pm on Sunday.
