Freshwater Focus
April 13, 2024
Traverse City’s International Affairs Forum is putting a spotlight on freshwater this week with back-to-back events at the Dennos Museum Center Milliken Auditorium. First up is a free screening (tickets required) of the documentary Relentless—which follows how the sea lamprey nearly decimated fish populations in Lake Superior—at 6pm on April 17. A panel discussion including the director of the film plus experts on Great Lakes fishing will follow. Then, at 7pm on April 18, Peter Annin, director of the Mary Griggs Burke Center for Freshwater Innovation and author of The Great Lakes Water Wars and Purified: How Recycled Sewage Is Transforming Our Water, will take the stage for a discussion on global water tension and the Great Lakes Compact. Tickets for the April 18 event are $15; $10 for virtual livestream. Learn more at tciaf.com.
