Join us for a screening of Patagonia’s new documentary, Artifishal, to defend the wild fish we love and tell the truth about the devastating cost of hatcheries, fish farms and the willful ignorance of scientific fact for political expediency.
Artifishal is a film about wild rivers and wild fish that explores the high cost—ecological, financial and cultural—of our mistaken belief that engineered solutions can make up for habitat destruction. The film traces the impact of fish hatcheries, and the extraordinary amount of public money wasted on an industry that hinders wild fish recovery, pollutes our rivers and contributes to the problem it claims to solve. Artifishal also dives beneath the surface of the open-water fish farm controversy, as citizens work to stop the damage done to public waters and our remaining wild salmon.
Drinks and small bites (provided by BjornQorn) will be served starting at 7:00 pm and the film will begin at 7:30 pm. After the film there will be a Q&A with director, Josh “Bones” Murphy. Guests can bring an item to be screen printed, plus there will be custom Artifishal swag including stickers and pint cups available for a donation to the featured non-profit Riverkeeper!
