National Geographic Live is a three-part speaker series featuring Mireya Mayor, primatologist, Bryan Smith, extreme videographer, and David Guttenfelder, photojournalist. All three speakers have travelled the world to get the powerful stories and images you’ve seen on the National Geographic channel and magazine. Season tickets to this series cost only $81 for the three engagements, and single tickets are only $30 – the perfect gift for anyone in your life who is curious about the world around them.

Individual events are also available:

Mireya Mayor, a former NFL cheerleader who grew up in Miami, is a respected primatologist and Emmy Award-nominated wildlife correspondent. Animal lovers and young women interested in science will love this behind-the-scenes look at life in the field. Mireya will be in Spokane February 20, 2019.

Bryan Smith has faced machete-wielding locals in Papua New Guinea, suffered frostbite during the first-ever ice climb on Niagara Falls, and scaled North America’s tallest mountains. Both the adrenaline junkie and film enthusiast will love hearing Smith share his philosophy on adventuring with purpose. Bryan will be in Spokane March 27, 2019.

David Guttenfelder made history in 2011 when he helped the Associated Press open a bureau in North Korea.

We recommend this show for any rock stars in your life – musical rock stars or people who might as well be rock stars for all they do for you. For example, any teachers in your life deserve a strong “thank you” this season. They will enjoy the music and message of School of Rock, featuring musical theater’s first-ever kids rock band.
