Wild & Scenic Film Fest
The Wild & Scenic Film Festival is a three-day event presented annually by the Evanston Environmental Association (EEA) and the city of Evanston. Different movies are shown on the three separate days of the festival. This is the festival's eighth year in Evanston and its popularity in past years has now led to the addition of a third day to provide matinee showing times! The Wild & Scenic Film Festival is organized and produced by SYRCL (the South Yuba River Citizens League), and was started in part to help environmental organizations like the EEA grow their membership. The festival offers a line-up of the best in environmental and adventure short films covering a variety of topics relevant to those concerned about the future of our planet. 2019 Dates/Times
