Mother Earth’s Movies
By Jillian Manning | April 16, 2022
In honor of Earth Day, we found several free, nature-inspired film screenings throughout the region this week. The Dennos Museum Center in Traverse City will host two showings (1pm and 2:30pm) on April 20 of America’s National Parks at 100, which takes armchair travelers on a tour of national parks across the country. Reservations required: go to shop.dennosmuseum.org. On April 22, you can catch the movie 2040 at 6:30pm at the Old Town Playhouse in Traverse City. The hopeful film looks at ways to reduce the effects of climate change and will be followed by an environmental discussion. Call 231-947-2210 for more details. Last but not least, this week is the premiere of Water, Sand & Sky, a documentary set at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Catch it on the big screen at the Historic Vogue Theatre in Manistee (April 19, 7pm), The Garden Theater in Frankfort (April 21, 7:30pm), and at the Bay Theatre in Suttons Bay (April 23, 2pm, 3pm, and 4pm).
