Mancos Valley River Filmfest

TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR FOR $25.

Mancos Valley Resources, in partnership with Title Sponsor Alpacka Raft, is holding the 2nd Annual Mancos Valley River Film Festival this June 2018. One hundred percent of the proceeds of this fest will support local nonprofits in Montezuma County, Colorado. Last years event raised $9,600 to benefit the 100 Excelsior Plant fire victims who lost their jobs when the Mancos-based plant burned down May 2017. The money was funneled through two Mancos Valley Resources (MVR) projects: Mancos Food Share and Mancos Pay It Forward.

This year, funds will be split between MVR and the Mancos Trails Group, an organization that seeks to enhance the hiking, biking, and river trails in Mancos.

During the event, American Rivers Sinjin Eberle will talk about the 5000 Miles of Wild Campaign, an effort to preserve 5000 river miles and gather 5000 river stories. Conservation films will include the Blue Heart: The Fight to Save Europes Last Wild Rivers, along with a short film about Dolores River conservation efforts. As well, a variety of short films will be shown on urban bikerafting in Portland, fly fishing in Alaska, and more to be announced.
