Sponsorship Benefits

Do your business’s values align with conservation awareness, climate change action, community advocacy, water quality and quantity issues or the use of art in environmental change?
Consider supporting Eagle River Watershed Council’s annual Wild & Scenic Film Festival through a sponsorship or in-kind donation for the annual silent auction. All funds raised support our mission and critical work to protect and restore the watershed through education, projects, monitoring and advocacy.
This film festival + silent auction event supports programs such as our signature Watershed Immersions series, workshops and the Eagle River Water Festival. It’s a chance to use film to highlight environmental issues across the globe and to inspire action within our local community.
Last year, our virtual film event resulted in more than 430 logins and was our most successful Wild & Scenic Film Festival yet!
To secure your sponsorship of the 2022 program, please email us. You may remit payment by check (no processing fees) or via our secure payment option (processing fee added).
Water is critical for life, and this community depends upon it for everything from the snow that covers its slopes to the communities that have blossomed because of the recreation and tourism here.
Sponsorship and in-kind donations enable your brand and products to get out in front of your audience in a way that matters to them. Grow brand awareness and be associated with a mission that matters.
Let your values speak for themselves and share that you support water education, watershed restoration efforts, water quality monitoring and more!

With minimal lead-time, the change was made for the 5th-Annual event to change to a virtual format from being a fully in-person event, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Tickets were available by donation, and resulted in more funds brought in to support watershed education than in the history of the event.
This change was a huge success, making the Watershed Council’s event a spotlight event for virtual film festivals nationalwide for host organization SYRCL.
The first-ever Eagle River Watershed Council Wild & Scenic Film Festival started in 2016 and has grown to become one of our most-loved annual events.
