Sea Studios Film Festival- June 6th

Sea Studios Foundation’s inaugural Film Festival in honor of World Ocean Day will be held Saturday, June 6, from 12 - 7 p.m. at the Cannery Row IMAX Theater in Monterey. This year the theme is "Think beyond Plastics" and the goal is to to inspire conservation of the ocean and encourage people reduce their use of plastics, the main source of marine debris. Sea Studios Foundation has partnered with a wide-range of Monterey Peninsula-based organizations to present three internationally acclaimed films focusing on the effects of plastics in the ocean. The films will be shown in the beautiful, state-of-the-art Cannery Row IMAX Theater via digital presentation. The Festival will also include a panel discussion and a Meet-The-Filmmakers reception. The Festival is supported in part by a generous donation of the Packard Foundation.
