New Zealand has been called the most beautiful place on earth with two large and spectacular islands located just over twelve hundred miles off the eastern coast of Australia. These islands offer the visitor an entire gamut of action, adventure, history and beauty. Paragliding, soaring, trekking, fishing and scuba diving are popular sports.

A Southern California native, Howard is a documentary-adventure filmmaker, searching for fascinating stories of the people and their land in Southeast Asia, the Pacific, and Europe.

SafeHaven Humane Society will sell coffee, tea and homemade baked goods during the show’s intermission. Proceeds support SafeHaven Humane Society, Albany’s non-profit animal shelter.

Ticket price is $8, $6.50 for students/seniors. The film will be shown in the LBCC Russell Tripp Performance Center in Takena Hall, 6500 Pacific Blvd. SW, Albany.
