    Join filmmaker and educator Jon Bowermaster for two short screenings followed by discussion:

    For the past few years, people have watched a singular sailing boat being renovated in various ports along the Hudson. The original purpose of the Schooner Apollonia, a 64-foot, steel-hulled sailboat built in the 1940s was to carry and deliver up to 20,000 pounds of cargo by sail.  Their team of ambitious young adventurers, led by Captain Sam Merrett, have been working steadily to restore the dilapidated hull, overhaul its engine and sails, carve new booms and mast and return it to the water. The Apollonia has been trawling ports from Hudson to Kingston, Beacon, Newburgh, Poughkeepsie, Piermont and Ossining, its hold stuffed with all kinds of Upstate goods headed south – and products made in Brooklyn and Manhattan returning back north – using only sustainable energy – sail power and/or vegetable oil!

    Follow the journey of the palm-sized Bobolink songbird from a New York farm field to Argentina and back. Join Noah Perlut and his team of researchers as they begin tracking individual birds and following their fascinating local and international migration patterns to better understand the kinds of habitats they are drawn to during nesting, migration and in the winter across the globe.
