Coming Together for the Love of Fish – A Film Festival for the AFS Alaska Chapter Virtual Meeting – March 22, 2021

A silver lining from this time of COVID is how quickly and efficiently we are collectively embracing the virtual world – and one of the best ways to highlight the Love of Fish is through film. We are also in a time when many aquatic scientists and managers have added new tools to their toolbox, including time-lapse photography, GoPro capacity and drones. The goal of this symposium is to bring together a collection of films from the AFS membership to highlight ways they are Coming Together for the Love of Fish. Grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy!!!!
