The New England Aquarium and GBH present a special behind-the-scenes look at NOVA’s three-part series Sea Change: The Gulf of Maine as part of the Aquarium’s Lowell Lecture Series. Featuring imagery by acclaimed film producer and veteran photojournalist Brian Skerry, the series examines the changes taking place in the Gulf of Maine, a body of water that is warming 97 percent faster than the global ocean. Blending science, exploration, natural history, and stories of human experience, Sea Change illuminates how the gulf may serve as a preview of what might happen in other parts of the world due to climate change.

Join us in person or via live stream for a screening of highlights from the series followed by a panel discussion and Q&A with Skerry and other members of the filmmaking team about their experiences documenting and studying this spectacular wilderness, and how the communities that live and work along the gulf’s shores are working to sustain its future. Panelists include:

  • Laurie Donnelly, Executive Producer, Sea Change, and Director of Lifestyle Programming, GBH
  • Dr. David Fields, Senior Research Scientist, Bigelow Labs
  • Brian Skerry, Photographer and Producer, Sea Change
  • Chun-Wei Yi, Writer, Director, and Producer, Sea Change
  • Moderated by Dr. Letise LaFeir, Chief of Conservation and Stewardship, New England Aquarium

 
Free of charge and open to the public, the Lowell Lecture Series is made possible due to the generosity of the Lowell Institute. This event is presented in partnership with GBH. Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the program starts promptly at 6:30 p.m.
