Join Voyageurs Conservancy and National Park partners from across Minnesota for a special screening of Out There, an inspiring feature-length documentary celebrating America's national parks and the people whose lives they touch.

Created during the centennial of the National Park Service, Out There follows a young filmmaker and his childhood friend on what begins as a summer road trip and evolves into a seven-year journey across America's public lands. Through breathtaking cinematography, powerful storytelling, and intimate interviews, the film explores how national parks inspire adventure, healing, stewardship, and a deep sense of belonging.

Following the screening, stay for a community conversation and Q&A with the film maker celebrating the importance of our national parks and the people working to protect them.
