A River in Time: Environmental Histories on the Neponset River

Created by Laura Clerx et al.

Using maps and storytelling, A River in Time: Environmental Histories on the Neponset River invites viewers to engage with the Neponset River’s many pasts, from its prehuman history through the present moment. While this project servers a wide audience, the hope is that the Neponset’s environmental history orients the people who engage with the river, perhaps on a daily basis, to the its many historical pasts, and the ways these pasts encapsulate larger trends in US history.
