Nature Coast Movie Night: Seagrass and Oysters – NSW
October 28, 2023 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm AEDT
Join OzFish at a seagrass and oyster restoration themed movie fundraising event.
Nature Coast Marine Group are partnering with AusOcean, Narooma High School, Batemans Marine Parks and Eurobodalla Shire Council to install an underwater camera and data logging buoy in Narooma. School students will assemble it and NCMG will assist in deploying and monitoring it. The live stream, focusing on seagrass and rays, will be available for everyone to watch 24/7! In an effort to raise funds for this incredible project, OzFish and NCMG will be hosting a seagrass and oyster restoration themed movie night.
Seagrasses, such as Posidonia Australis, and oysters are not only incredible habitat for many species, but also play crucial roles in carbon storage and water filtration. It is for these reasons, and many more, that we must do all we can to protect them!
The night will include a few short and medium length films about local and worldwide initiatives, with talks in between outlining some of the great projects that our organisations are involved in.
Vegetarian and vegan dinner will be available for $10 on the night, and drinks by donation. Kids under 12 are free, but please still book a ticket for them!
Registration is essential. We hope to see you there.
This event is supported by Nature Coast Marine Group, AusOcean, Narooma High School, Batemans Marine Parks, Eurobodalla Shire Council and BCF – Boating, Camping, Fishing.
