Film Screening: Cigarette Surfboard

Join us on February 26, 7:00 p.m. in Jepson Hall, Room 118 to learn how an impassioned surfer, Taylor Lane, created a functional surfboard from 10,000 littered cigarette butts collected from California beaches. This project takes Taylor around the world to learn from professional surfers who are working to protect and restore oceans through science, education, art, business, and political activism. The film was selected by students in the World of Cinema Endeavor, who will introduce the film and lead the Q&A with the creator after the screening.

All are welcome! There will be a reception at 6:00 p.m. just outside of Room 118, and the film will start at 7:00 p.m.
