Films at the Field Lab: Waterways

For one evening, the Field Lab will be transformed into an outdoor cinema. Join us for a program of shorts curated by the Exploratorium’s Cinema Arts group. A selection of documentaries, artist-made films, and archival footage will offer a multifaceted look at water and our relationship to it. From poetic evocations to aerial investigations, the program will consider our local landscape of the Bay shore, tidal zones, and natural cycles.

Visit the Field Lab and explore the dynamics of the San Francisco Bay. From the critters that live in the tidelands to the impacts of rising seas to the regional policies and projects that will help us adapt to the effects of climate change, the Field Lab will engage the public in understanding our tidelands. Over three weeks, the Field Lab will be installed in front of the museum in the Plaza providing a free venue for hands-on workshops, talks, radio broadcasts, a research library, and an evening film screening tonight.

Presented with support from the California State Coastal Conservancy and Exploratorium’s Fisher Bay Observatory Gallery.
