MEMBER CONNECTIONS Screening & Discussion: Urban Nature If you know where to look, you’ll find the most surprising slices of nature thriving amidst the urban jungle of America’s largest cities. The One Earth Festival will screen several episodes of WTTW’s 16-episode digital series Urban Nature, in which University of Chicago evolutionary biologist Marcus Kronforst leads audiences on a tour of overlooked ecosystems in Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. He’ll hop on a bike, grab a kayak, or even take the subway, to seek out the unlikely habitats that are hidden among the skyscrapers. And he’ll discover how these havens are essential to the health of our cities—and the future of our planet. The series creator, Emmyaward winning producer Dan Protess, will be available for an audience Q&A following the screening. For more information, please visit wttw.com/events.

Join WTTW for this FREE screening and discussion of the new Independent Lens film, Dolores. With intimate and unprecedented access, Peter Bratt’s documentary tells the story of Dolores Huerta, who is among the most important, yet least-known, activists in American history. Co-founder of the first farmworkers union with César Chávez, she tirelessly led the fight for racial and labor justice, becoming one of the most defiant feminists of the 20th century. The film screening will be followed by a discussion. For more information, visit wttw.com/events.
