Ocean Institute Lecture Series
An Evening with Bob McKnight and Greg MacGillivray  
Join us Thursday, March 18th for an illuminating evening as we dive into the surf culture with two pioneers who helped introduce the sport to new audiences throughout the world. Bob McKnight, co-founder of Quiksilver, Inc., and IMAX filmmaker Greg MacGillivray, co-founder of MacGillivray Freeman Films, will take us on a journey from their early days of filming surf movies to the multi-billion dollar sport it has become. Join Bob and Greg as they talk about their passion for surfing, show image and film clips, and discuss how they successfully drew international attention to a sport that was mainly limited to coastal regions.
