Inland fans of the reality show "Whale Wars" are in for a treat.
Captain Paul Watson will be in Riverside for the fifth annual Sea No Evil Art Show on Saturday at the Riverside Municipal Auditorium.
The 1,776-seat auditorium has been closed since August but will reopen for one night to house this event.
The benefit began in 2007, when Riverside residents Derric and Erin Swinfard wanted to engage local communities about the health of the oceans on behalf of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.
Watson will be delivering a speech at the event. Other cast members from "Whale Wars" will be making appearances as well.
Sea No Evil, so far, has raised over $250,000 for the Sea Shepherd organization.
More than 100 artists have contributed to the event.
They include Jeff Soto, Shepherd Fairey, Kinsey, Lola, Gary Baseman, Korin Faught, Mark Dean Veca, Vince Chan, Ryan Jacob Smith and Gretchen Ryan.
Tickets are $10, with VIP access for $100 that includes 5:30 p.m. admission, a meet-and-greet with Watson, T-shirt and autographed poster.
The auditorium is at 3485 Mission Inn Ave.
