Wild & Scenic Film Festival informs and inspires
Coastal Rivers Conservation Trust will host its seventh annual Wild and Scenic Film Festival on Tour at 7 p.m. on May 15 at the Lincoln Theater with a curated selection of 10 short films.
Wild & Scenic’s 2025 films feature exceptional filmmaking, breathtaking cinematography, and compelling storytelling to inform and inspire about environmental issues and the power of the natural world. Attendees can expect award-winning films about nature, outdoor adventure, conservation, wildlife, environmental issues, agriculture, and more.
Beer, wine, and concessions will be available through the theater, and guests may enter to win giveaways from the Wild and Scenic Film Festival’s national sponsors, Coastal Rivers, and local sponsor Rising Tide Co-op.
Tickets are $12, for kids under 16 - $7, and free for Coastal Rivers members, and may be purchased online at coastalrivers.org/events. The event is sponsored locally by First National Wealth Management, Haley Ward, Rising Tide Co-op, and Twin Villages Foodbank Farm.
Now in its 22nd year, the Wild & Scenic Film Festival on Tour is a selection of short films from the annual festival held the third week of February in Nevada City, California.
The film festival is a natural extension of Coastal Rivers’ work to inspire people to act on behalf of the environment. Coastal Rivers is a non-profit, member-supported, nationally accredited land trust caring for the lands and waters of the Damariscotta-Pemaquid Region by conserving special places, protecting water quality, creating trails and public access, and deepening connections to nature through education programs.
