"An Evening with Don Briggs" will be held Friday, July 2, 2010 at the Blue Sage Center for the Arts in Paonia from 7 to 9 pm. Don will be giving a slide show featuring his extraordinary photography. Also scheduled is a possible sneak preview of his new documentary about the struggle to keep the Grand Canyon a free-flowing stretch of river. Details TBA.
Don Briggs is one of the early Grand Canyon river runners and a member of ARTA, beginning in the late 1960s as the first commercial rafting outfit on the Grand Canyon. For years, Don has been involved in river activism, documenting the fight in the 1970's to save California's Stanislaus River. Watch the trailer for "Last River Lost" here.
This event will be a benefit for NFRIA with a suggested donation of $8. Don't miss this opportunity to share an evening with one of the original river activists!
