On September 12, 2024, SLOMA hosted a private screening of the new Native Like Water short film Haagua: an Indigineous Surf Film. After the screening, Native Like Water crew members Marc Chavez, Luz Guerrero, and Amon B. Chavez answered questions and shared about their groundbreaking work. This program was moderated by Haylee Bautista, Ocean Advocate for the yak titʸu titʸu yak tiłhini tribe. This event was presented as part of SLOMA’s exhibition, Whose Waters? A Celebration of Surfing, on view through October 20, 2024.
