In its Iowa premiere, the Columbia River Canoe Project follows cousins Robert Lester and Braxton Mitchell as they attempt a 1,300-mile canoe expedition from the Continental Divide near Butte, Montana, to the Pacific Ocean.The film's third character is their Bob Foote-designed 17' Oberholtzer Ruby Red canoe, handcrafted for their journey at Navarro Canoe Co. in Rock Island, Illinois.
Enjoy the award-winning 70-minute coming-of-age, environmental stewardship, and adventure documentary film inside the state-of-the-art boutique independent cinema, The Last Picture House, in downtown Davenport, Iowa.
Your Columbia River Canoe Project ticket includes access to a post-screening reception sponsored by Navarro Canoe Co. at Micky's Irish Pub, around the corner one block away, from 7:30pm to 9pm.
At 8pm, Navarro Canoe Co.'s master builder Jeff OHern will guide you on the materials, woods, and new build standards he has implemented since taking over the manufacturing at Navarro in 2022.
Learn why it takes over 100 man hours to handcraft and build an heirloom floating work of art that's also capable of a journey such as the Columbia River Canoe Project.
