Join the Tampa Bay History Center for an evening with award-winning National Geographic photographer Mac Stone as he shares his work documenting the last old-growth cypress swamps of the American South.Drawing from more than a decade spent photographing ancient forests in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida, Stone will share the stories and images behind his new book, “Cypress: The Last Old-Growth Swamps.” From ghost orchids blooming high in ancient cypress trees to panthers moving through the wetlands below, his photographs reveal ecosystems that have endured for centuries and are increasingly rare.
Through stunning photography and stories from the field, Stone explores these remarkable landscapes as living archives of deep time and considers what their survival means for the future of the South.
Tickets are $5 and free for History Center members. Not a member? Visit our website to learn how to join.
Florida Conversations is supported by the University of South Florida Endowment, USF Libraries and a generous gift from Shelley Blood. This program is presented in person in TECO Hall at the Tampa Bay History Center and virtually through Zoom. A recording will be posted on YouTube after the event.
