We're Looking Forward To...

Island of the Great White Shark

Tuesday, January 6: 6-8 p.m.

Join filmmaker Richard Theiss at the Birch Aquarium as he screens Island of the Great White Shark, an award-winning 43-minute documentary that captures the true nature of great white sharks of Isla Guadalupe, a remote island off Baja, Mexico. The film also chronicles the efforts of conservationists and scientists working to understand these sharks before it is too late.
