For more information:
In a time of serious stress, nothing soothes like the great outdoors. Now, even people who are staying home will be inspired and excited thanks to the first-ever virtual outdoors film festival hosted by the Sierra Club’s Inspiring Connections Outdoors (ICO) youth outings program. The 2-night Inspiring Connections Outdoors Film Festival will take place February 20th and 21st beginning at 7PM Eastern Time (6PM Central/5PM Mountain/4PM Pacific) and can be watched on a smart TV or computer on Youtube Premieres. The program will feature a range of exciting, touching, and, importantly, diverse films centered on the outdoors.
There is no charge for watching the free Inspiring Connections Outdoors Film Festival. However, donations are greatly appreciated, as the weekend activity will serve as a fundraiser for seven Sierra Club Inspiring Connections Outdoors (ICO) groups across the nation. There will also be a silent auction, where great gear and other items from Stio, YETI, Gregory and NRS and more can be bid on at the event website starting February 13th. Night 1 will feature films from the 5 Point On the Road adventure film festival. Night 2 is dubbed our "ICO Community Campfire NIght" and will showcase an innovative, unique lineup curated by the Sierra Club’s ICO volunteers, including young people. The films will especially reflect and inspire diverse youth and families.
