GREENE — The Araxine Wilkins Sawyer Memorial, 371 Sawyer Road, will present Dale Johnson’s film “The Lure of Alaska” at 2 and 7 p.m. Friday, April 15.

Alaska is one of the few places where sizable fragments of the natural world still exist, unfettered by any human influence. There are also moose, people, cities, fishing, the Marine Highway and receding glaciers in a gigantic land that maintains a mystic aura in the psyche of many people.

Attendees should be prepared to see grizzlies fishing for salmon and competing with each other for the best places; and scenes from Anchorage, now a city of 300,000 — more than half the population of the state. Then there are Denali and Wrangel-Saint Elias national parks, two of the nation’s largest. Wrangel-Saint Elias contains the abandoned Kennicot copper mine, which flourished at the end of the 1800s.

Admission is free. FMI: 207-946-5311, www.sawyer-foundation.com, www.facebook.com/sawyer.foundation1937.
