This is a special event hosted by an outside party. The Avalon is not handling ticketing for this event.

Please join the Center for Biological Diversity, the Endangered Species Coalition, Earth Justice and Defenders of Wildlife in celebrating the Washington, D.C. premiere of the documentary OR7 – THE JOURNEY. This inspiring film tells the story of a wolf in Oregon, but it’s truly about all wolves and the precarious state of wolf recovery in the West.

The film tells Journey’s story, not just as an adventure thousands of miles in the making, but representing the return of his species to their native habitats. It explores an awakening in how Americans view native wildlife and wild places, the increasing conflict between 21st century science and values, and the old prejudices and politics that put the future of wolves – and OR-7 – in jeopardy.

Besides being a wildlife success story, Journey has brought wolves into the public eye. This couldn’t come at a more critical time, as there have already been three pieces of legislation proposed this year seeking to remove federal Endangered Species Act protections from Gray wolves.
