At National Geographic, we invest in bold people and
transformative ideas to further global understanding of our
planet and create a community of change. This season, our live
event programming presents some of these amazing people and
ideas to inform and inspire you.
Meet the “Bat Man of Mexico” and find out why you should
love bats, too. Get a glimpse into the lives of Ethiopia’s
“bleeding heart” monkeys and learn why their best friends are
wolves. Be inspired to take action after watching the powerful
documentaries featured in our annual partnership with the
Environmental Film Festival. Take a ride through the American
West. And be sure to snap some selfies at our Instagram exhibition.
There’s so much more to explore. We invite you to join us, to
go further together, and to better understand and care for this
amazing planet we call home.

DEAR FRIENDS,
FRI, MAR 3 | 7:30 PM | STARTING AT $25
TALK
A parasitic wasp consuming a caterpillar from the inside. The
secret life cycle of the honeybee. The surprising way the fates
of the long-nosed bat and tequila are tied together. Prepare to
be astonished by the dramatic and one-of-a-kind photographs
of ANAND VARMA and the enchanting stories of world-
renowned scientist RODRIGO MEDELLÍN.
Join National Geographic Explorers JEFF KERBY and
VIVEK VENKATARAMAN for a rare look at Ethiopia’s
bleeding heart monkey—the gelada—named for the red
patches on its chest. Learn about this charismatic species’
alpine survival techniques, bizarre diet, and unique
relationship with the critically endangered Ethiopian wolf.
BEAUTY AND THE BIZARRE
What does it take to be a National Geographic
explorer? Join three comedians and a surprise guest
explorer as they discover the answer for themselves.
Host CHRIS DUFFY leads a comedic adventure of sci-
ence and discovery full of interactive games, sketches,
and hilariously misguided guesses to figure out what our
explorer does all day.
Chris is a staff writer for National Geographic’s
Explorer and the creator and host of You’re the Expert,
a live show, podcast, and public radio program on Bos-
ton’s WBUR where three comedians try to guess what
a scientist studies.

In 2013, filmmaker BEN MASTERS, three of his friends, and 16 wild
mustangs journeyed across 3,000 miles of some of the most rugged
territory in the American West. This audacious trek—to inspire adop-
tions for wild horses and burros—has since inspired Ben to help
others on their own journeys. Hear Ben share inspiring stories from
the road and watch clips from his documentary Unbranded.
This award, now in it’s fourth year, recognizes short films that explore
innovative solutions to balancing the needs of humans and nature.
See a line-up of outstanding films, including the winning film,
Kokota: The Islet of Hope, and meet filmmaker CRAIG NORRIS.
Co-presented with the National Wildlife Federation.
Follow an international group of scientists and filmmakers
as they travel to the legendary Galápagos Islands and document a
complex and unique underwater world that that is under threat.
See the winning film for this award established in memory of
William Warner by the Warner/Kaempfer family, to honor a film
reflecting a spirit of reverence for the natural world.

This season, our live event programming presents some of these amazing people and ideas to inform and inspire you. Meet the “Bat Man of Mexico” and find out why you should love bats, too. Get a glimpse into the lives of Ethiopia’s “bleeding heart” monkeys and learn why their best friends are wolves. Be inspired to take action after watching the powerful documentaries featured in our annual partnership with the Environmental Film Festival. Take a ride through the American West. And be sure to snap some selfies at our Instagram exhibition. There’s so much more to explore. We invite you to join us, to go further together, and to better understand and care for this amazing planet we call home. Gary Knell President and CEO National Geographic Society DEAR FRIENDS,
