Our Mission
The Texas Master Naturalist™ Program’s mission is to develop a corps of well-informed volunteers to provide education, outreach, and service dedicated to the beneficial management of natural resources and natural areas within their communities for the State of Texas. Coastal Prairie Chapter members volunteer mainly in Fort Bend, Waller and Wharton counties.
Free Screening – Texas Rivers: Deep in the Heart 2
From the team behind Fin and Fur Films and narrated by acclaimed actor Ethan Hawke, Deep in the Heart 2: Texas Rivers is a visually stunning documentary celebrating the rivers that make Texas wild. The film invites viewers to appreciate the natural beauty of Texas waterways and consider the importance of these vital resources to the state’s diverse wildlife and natural heritage.
Enjoy complimentary popcorn and soft drinks during the screening!
Following the screening, attendees are invited to stay for a brief question-and-answer session and panel discussion featuring members of the riparian conservation community. The discussion will offer an opportunity to learn more about river and stream conservation and the efforts underway to protect the natural resources that sustain Texas communities and wildlife.
The Texas Master Naturalist Coastal Prairie Chapter is underwriting the screening as a gift to the community. The chapter serves Fort Bend, Waller, and Wharton counties through volunteer education, outreach, and service dedicated to the beneficial management of natural resources and natural areas.
