"These 10 films are very real . . . but they're also very, very hopeful in that they will move you to action, and action is what we need." ---Bill McKibben

Bellows Falls Opera House

Admission if free, donation optional, registration requested

Join us for a very special event we’re hosting here in our corner of Vermont, the Future Climate Film Festival produced by Merlyn Climate Grants. This event will feature ten short films from four continents that give expression to what we're feeling—hope and cynicism, climate denial and climate grief, rage and heartbreak, resilience and resolve—and offer paths toward climate empowerment.

America's leading voice on climate, Bill McKibben, co-founder of 350.org and Third Act, is the Honorary Judge and launches the Festival in a videotaped introduction.

Admission is free! Please consider a donation to support the museum in providing a diversity of learning opportunities for all ages.

Please meet us at The Bellows Falls Opera House, 7 Village Square, Bellows Falls, VT . Public parking is available in and around Bellows Falls town center right outside of the Opera House. Plan to arrive at least 15 minutes early to give yourself time to check in and get settled before the start of the event. Doors will open at 1:30PM.

Send any questions to Jay DeGregorio at jay@nature-museum.org, or you can reach us at 802-843-2111. Thank you for your interest and support.  We look forward to seeing you for this event!
