Rising Tides – Fairfield’s Coast: Past to Future
| September 29, 2016 — March 19, 2017 |
Fairfield’s coastline thrives, attracting people to work, play, and live along the shore, but rising sea levels and shifting weather patterns are changing our relationship with the coast. This timely exhibition explored our shoreline’s long history of coastal resilience, through stunning photographs, artifacts, and documents, and examined how climate change presents new challenges for the future. It won an Award of Merit from the American Association for State and Local History in 2017.
