Celebrate the beauty and wonder of the natural world at the Wild & Scenic Film Festival. With Representation Matters as a theme, this year’s lineup features films that spotlight underrepresented voices in the environmental and wilderness communities. Learn about the importance of the ancestral lands surrounding the general Nch’i-Wàna area from the short film Land of the Yakamas; see how naturalist John Olmsted turned an abandoned California mining ditch into the first wheelchair nature trail in the United States in A Wild Independence; and check out how Roze McQueen navigates climate change in the music video “I’m a Child.”
Wednesday 11/16. $25, 7pm. Violet Crown Cinema, 200 W. Main St., Downtown Mall, and online. livingearthva.org
