About this event
The FRDC invites you to join us online on April 7th, 7:00-8:30pm, for a digital presentation and talk by photographer and "outdoor storyteller" Fernando Lessa!
Fernando Lessa combines his skills as a photographer with a passion for outdoor activities and the natural world to document the important relationships between humankind and nature.
Mr. Lessa will present an online seminar on his documentary film "Urban Salmon", a collaborative project created with the support of Take a Stand for Conservation and The Watershed Watch Salmon Society. The result of four years of photography and research, “Urban Salmon” highlights the existence and revival of wild pacific salmon in the Metro Vancouver Watershed!
Mr. Lessa’s presentation will provide an in-depth look into the years of hard work that made this documentary possible, and will encourage all of us to reconsider our place in the Fraser Watershed’s ecosystems, which may be far closer and more fragile than we realize!
This presentation will conclude with a Q&A session. We hope you will join us!
Registration is by donation, and includes a link to the Zoom meeting.
The FRDC is pleased to be able to offer this seminar with free registration, but as a non-profit charitable organization we rely on community members like you to stay open. Please consider making a donation to the Discovery Centre online or in-person, on your next visit. We hope you will join us!
