Opening September 2024
In the winter of 2024, I was hired to curate an exhibition that explores how six ancient civilizations engineered water systems that met the needs of their people. My research revealed that each culture created remarkably innovative, long-term solutions to its water needs. In addition to examining the ancient water systems, the exhibit looks at the impact of climate change in each of these locations. Whether facing drought or flooding, public officials in every place are actively pursuing ways to ensure that their citizens have access to clean water.
