Join the 3rd Grade Action Network for the screening of their documentary, Save Our Southern Residents, followed by a screening of Free Willy.
The 3rd Grade Action Network is a group of 50 students who learn about social activism and local issues. As part of the curriculum, the students collaborate on a big project to help drive meaningful action while learning important skills that will help them become active stewards of their community, applying what they’ve learned to real-world challenges.
For this year’s Action Network, the students have selected killer whales. Throughout the course of their studies, they have featured guest speakers from Killer Whale Tales, Whale Scout, NOAA, Whale Trail, Orca Recovery, Sound Action, and Orca Network.
As part of their work, the students have made their very own documentary where they seek to educate viewers about the plight of the endangered Southern Resident killer whales and inspire people to take meaningful action to help save them from extinction.
The event is open to the public, and tickets will be available by donation. Proceeds from the screening are going to Orca Conservancy and our ongoing work to help recover the Southern Residents.
