This Friday on Art Beat in studio is Brian Huntington of the Skeena Watershed Conservation Coalition. He will chat with me about The Invisible Migration and related celebratory events.
Don't miss it! Friday 15 May, 3pm-3:30pm, listen live online, on your radio in the Smithers area at 93.9FM, or later right here at smithersradio.com under the Art Beat Play List.
If you missed the outstanding May 11 Invisible Migration Event, at the Babine River Fence, you still have a chance to celebrate our salmon friends at a camp fire jam in Hazelton May 20th.
More about this event on the show. Learn about the Invisible Migration here:

BRIAN HUNTINGTON
A founding member of SWCC, Brian moved to the Skeena in 2003 from Missoula, Montana to work with a senior biologist from the Ministry of Environment on a grizzly bear conservation project in the upper Skeena watershed. Brian graduated from the University of Montana with a BSc in Resource Conservation and Wildlife Biology. He worked as a Biological technician for the USGS on Glacier National Park’s original grizzly bear DNAstudy and as a project coordinator with the MT Dept of Fish & Wildlife, the Alliance for Wild Rockies and the Great Bear Foundation from 2000 to 2003. Since 2004, Brian has been organizing baseline inventory research for selected fish, wildlife and cultural resources in the upper Skeena. In 2007, he was adopted into a Gitxsan House group with territories in the upper Skeena as a result of his meaningful work. Most of the photos you see on our website are a result of Brian’s many treks into the wilderness with his camera
