A free online screening featuring To the Surface, a film by Bristol-native Tyler Murgo who raises questions around the global impact of Narragansett Bay’s seafood industry, and addresses ongoing sustainability efforts by local fishermen. Following the film, Tyler Murgo will join Dr. Skylar Bayer, Assistant Professor of Biology, Aquaculture & Extension Specialist at Roger Williams University in a panel discussion moderated by Kendall Reiss. What is the role of art in the face of climate change? How do artists and scientists address public advocacy and civic responsibility in their work? Can storytelling lead to awareness and change?

Unlimited online registrations are available.
