Doors Open @ 7:00

Film runs 7:30 – 8:40

It’s been a challenging year for U.S policy, but that doesn’t mean there’s no hope for solving the climate crisis. In fact, hope is powerful force for change. On January 29, join HC3 and Patagonia Breckenridge for a screening of the film, “The Scale of Hope.” This inspiring film follows former White House climate advisor Molly Kawahata as she prepares for an expedition in the Alaska Range while working to create a new climate narrative that centers her favorite question—What can I do to help?

Snacks will be provided, and a short discussion will follow the film.

The event is FREE, but tickets are required. Get yours here: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/copy-28
