| Whether we’ve been on this journey together since 2011 starting with The Breach – or whether you found your way here last week – it doesn’t matter. We’re connected now on this shared mission to save what we love. And it’s time to gather and take action for the last crown jewel for wild salmon on our planet – Bristol Bay. It’s not just this summer’s final national livestream event for The Wild – it’s a day of action for Bristol Bay: 230pm AK / 330 Pacific / 630pm Eastern Live Virtual Invocation with Yupik Land Acknowledgement by Melanie Brown, poetry by Bristol Bay fisher-poets like Maggie Bursch and a special appearance by Grammy Award Winning singer and wild salmon ally, Brandi Carlisle! 3pm AK / 4pm Pacific / 7pm Eastern Live virtual wild salmon Cook-Along with star chefs, including James Beard winners Tom Douglas and Renee Erickson! |
Encore National Livestream Screening of The Wild!4pm AK / 5pm Pacific / 8pm Eastern Before the film starts, we’ll be giving a shout-out to all the Bristol Bay Warriors who have been in this fight for the long haul.
