Come Celebrate the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge! Wednesday October 22,
2025 at 7:30 p.m. online.
MCAS is excited to present the amazing film *The Arctic, Our Last Great
Wilderness*.
The Arctic is not just one of the planet’s greatest natural spectacles,
it’s a place with global ecological importance that has supported
Indigenous communities and diverse ecosystems for generations.
Narrated by Indigenous film producer *Princess Daazhraii Johnson* (Neet'saii
Gwich'in) with National Geographic photographer *Florian Schulz*, *The
Arctic: Our Last Great Wilderness* roams the 19.6 million acres of what is
currently known as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
Follow the elusive 200,000-strong Porcupine caribou herd as it migrates to
the Arctic Coastal Plain, one of the longest animal migrations on Earth.
Meet the polar bears, musk oxen, wolves, golden eagles, and people who call
this area home. Experience the adventure of The Arctic and learn why this
remarkable land deserves our protection.
A Q&A with Lois Norrgard and Jackson Smith of the Alaska Wilderness League
will follow the film. Tune in to learn about this amazing place and take
action against oil exploration and development in our wildest Refuge.
