Bay State Without Beaches: Stories of the Shoreline at Lynn Museum

Join us on March 4 from 5-7 pm at Lynn Museum for the opening reception of Bay State Without Beaches: Stories of the Shoreline!

Bay State Without Beaches: Stories of the Shoreline is a multi-media exhibit highlighting personal stories about how coastal climate change is affecting people and communities across Massachusetts, featuring photos and paintings of our treasured shoreline, ocean-inspired beats, portraits, and artwork from local artists. We believe that lived experience is just as important as scientific data when it comes to understanding climate change.

These stories from community members of all ages who work, live, and play on the harbor can help us reaffirm our commitment to protect the state’s natural resources and create a new story for generations to come.

Visit our online storytelling exhibition anytime to read the full stories from our participants here: https://www.savetheharbor.org/bay-state-without-beaches

Featured artists: Nedret Andre, Karen Lee Sobol, Carolyn Lewenberg, and Melissa Roberts.
