The national tour of the annual Wild & Scenic Film Festival in Nevada City—one of the largest environmentally focused film events in the country—comes to Sacramento on Friday with a program largely featuring short documentaries about water quality, preservation and recreation, such as Walk on Water, which centers on a man paralyzed from the waist down who reconnects with the outdoors through white-water kayaking. Learn about the conservation efforts of local environmental groups like Save Our Sandhill Cranes at a waste-free reception at 5:30 p.m. catered by the likes of Sacramento Natural Foods Co-op, The Cultured Kitchen and culinary graduates from St. John’s Shelter Program for Women & Children. $10; additional $5 for reception. 6:30 p.m. Crest Theatre. 1013 K St. 203-1220. ecosacramento.net
