The 20th annual Backcountry Film Festival is headed to Livingston on Tuesday, Feb. 11th, at The Shane Lalani Center for the Arts. Local sports equipment retailer Dan Bailey’s will co-host the screening, and ticket proceeds will benefit Wild Montana.
Presented by Winter Wildlands Alliance, the Backcountry Film Festival celebrates human-powered recreation and wild winters. For 20 years, the festival has sparked conversations about the human connection to wild places, encouraged grassroots activism in the face of warming winters, and inspired stewardship of our wild public lands and waters. Festival-goers will enjoy films featuring backcountry experiences, conservation efforts, and personal stories of reflection and discovery while traversing wild landscapes.
The festival raises funds for local groups and nonprofits through a national film tour directly benefiting local projects and programs that promote access and stewardship of public lands. The Livingston screening will benefit Wild Montana, a grassroots conservation organization that unites and mobilizes communities to keep Montana wild.
At the Livingston screening, attendees will have a chance to win prizes donated by local businesses, including Mystery Ranch, Dan Bailey’s, Elk River Books, Neptune’s Brewery and more.
Doors open at 6 pm and the screening begins at 7 pm. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online at wildmontana.org/bcff/livingston or at the door.
Together, we make a positive impact on decisions determining the management
of public lands and waters across the state that sustain the well-being of Montana’s people, communities, and wildlife.
