Community Projects > Water Stories

This program was created on November 18, 2023 as part of the exhibition Water Stories: River Goddesses, Ancestral Rites, and Climate Crisis curated by Jinah Kim, at Harvard Radcliffe Institute.

Conversation and collective art making centered on the history of Fresh Pond reservoir, local sources of drinking water, and personal stories of water as healing, connective, and sacred. Marks were made collectively on a shared paper scroll using algae pigmented ice from Blacks Nook of Fresh Pond reservoir.
