The Colorado Environmental Coalition invites the public to a free screening of a documentary, "Last Hat in Town," which is about Rifle. The screening is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at the Center of Craig, Sixth and Yampa Avenue.

"Cultural anthropologist and ethnographic filmmaker Zachary Fink paints this poignant and lyrical portrait of a changing American West as he chronicles the hardships of rural Coloradoans forced to adapt to the conditions brought by the encroaching presence of the natural gas industry," the CEC stated in a news release.

The film is 75 minutes long.
