On Tour Hosts
Wild & Scenic On Tour partners with environmental groups, college and university groups, nature centers, and museums across the country to host the festival as a way to outreach into their communities and bring together an audience of diverse affiliations. The groups use the festival as a tool to raise awareness for their campaigns and recruit new activists. Using the tour as an outreach strategy is one of the primary goals of the tour and something we strive for with each venue.
By working with organizations, the issues featured in the films are brought back to a local level to show how global issues affect everyone.
