Event Description
On Sunday, April 21, The Spire hosts adventurer, author, filmmaker, and speaker, Jill Heinerth for an Earth Day multimedia presentation in the facility’s historic performance hall.
The event will take guests through Jill’s exciting and ongoing career as one of the world’s most accomplished underwater explorers and will invite more than six-hundred guests to interact with environmental agencies and organizations following the talk.
From diving iceberg caves in Antarctica with National Geographic to training divers on the set of Avatar 2, Jill’s curiosity and passion about our watery planet is the driving force in her life. In her visually stunning presentations, she encourages audiences to reach beyond their limitations, challenge the unknown, and love our rich and magnificent oceans and waterways.
