Source-to-Sea expedition
Tuesday, March 11
7:00pm
The Lyceum is delighted to show a free private screening of The Voice of the Hudson, which documents the remarkable story of a two-week, 375-mile journey from the source of the Hudson River to the Atlantic Ocean by eight students who hiked, paddled, and biked from New York State's highest summit—Mt Marcy—to New York City, and along the way conducted a citizen science project of the Hudson's water quality. During their project-based learning expedition, the student trekkers discovered the river's uniqueness, relevance to conservation, and current ecological condition while also gaining a strong sense of achievement and environmental stewardship. The film, by the Emmy-award winning cinematographer and filmmaker John Barnhardt, will be hosted by project co-organizer, Joe Dadey
Joe Dadey is the executive director of Hamlets to Huts, an Adirondack region nonprofit dedicated to creating recreational links between communities and wild places. He was a co-organizer and participant in the 375-mile trek documented in The Voice of the Hudson.
