Lolita program at The Whale Museum

There will be a showing at The Whale Museum on Thursday, Jan. 6 at 6:30 p.m. of the documentary "Lolita: Slave to Entertainment."

Do you want to learn more about Lolita, aka Tokitae, the missing L Pod whale?

Lolita, the only survivor of the orcas captured from the Southern Resident community, has been living and performing at the Miami Seaquarium since 1970. Friday Harbor High School students Kayla Drummond, Mallory Dahlquist, and Shondala Scott have decided to dedicate their community service project to educating islanders about Lolita.

Join them at The Whale Museum on Thursday, Jan. 6 at 6:30 p.m. for a presentation and a showing of the documentary “Lolita: Slave to Entertainment.” There is no charge for the program but the students are asking for donations that will help support Orca Network’s Lolita campaign and The Whale Museum’s Education Department.
