Smithsonian 175th Film Fest: To Tropic Seas Aboard Velero III
Thursday, September 30, 2021 - 5:00 PM
All aboard! On Thursday, September 30th at 5pm EDT, media digitization manager Kira Sobers will screen part of To Tropic Seas Aboard Velero III, which follows Smithsonian curator Waldo LaSalle Schmitt on his 1934 voyage to the Galapagos Islands. In addition to exploring the wildlife and marine life the crew studied on the expedition, the audience will also meet the infamous inhabitants on Florena Island, including the self-proclaimed Empress of the Galapagos. Come for the science. Stay for the witty narrator. During the program, Sobers will discuss her work with audiovisual collections and the breadth of films at the Archives.
