Overview

  • Group size60 people

Join an inspiring film screening that explores the Gila River, the last truly wild and free flowing river in New Mexico. Winding through rugged canyons and ancient forests, the Gila remains untouched by dams and continues to nourish diverse wildlife, Indigenous culture, and endless opportunities for exploration. This film reveals why the Gila is more than a river—it is the birthplace of the American wilderness ideal and a reminder of what’s at stake as threats like the rollback of the Roadless Area Conservation Rule put this extraordinary landscape at risk. Experience the story of a river whose unbroken rhythm has shaped generations and discover why protecting it’s beauty and power matters now more than ever. This event is presented by Environment America, an organization dedicated to protecting the natural spaces and wild places that define our country. Their team brings deep expertise and passion to the fight to preserve the Gila for future generations.
