A Film Festival by Activists for Activists

SYRCL’s Wild & Scenic Film Festival inspires environmental activism and a love for nature–through film. Wild & Scenic shares an urgent call to action, encouraging festival-goers to learn more about what they can do to save our threatened planet.

This is the 5th year of the Living Earth School hosting this amazing film festival in Charlottesville. Join us to celebrate the wonder of nature and the connections it brings. Our program this year features incredible films hand-selected by us, so we can guarantee they’ll inspire you like they inspired us. The films you’ll see are adventurous documentaries and short films on nature. Our theme for the films we chose was Earth Care, People Care. The films will inspire, educate, and move you to tears. Tears of joy and sadness. Come be a part of connecting with nature and a community of like-minded individuals who are committed to making our world a better place for all, nature included.

All proceeds from the event support our mission to nurture and deepen our relationships with nature, ourselves, and our communities — simply stated as: Earth Care, People Care.

Join us at the Dickinson Theater at PVCC for an evening of community connection and inspiration! Food vendors starting at 5 pm, community partners, and an online auction before the films start rolling at 7 pm.
