Storm Memory
On the heels of Hurricane Idalia, one of the most impactful storms of the 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season, our first season explores the topic of resilience in the town of Cedar Key, Florida. In a small coastal town which has been making big changes in the name of proactive sea rise adaptation, we meet with experts across a variety of fields including archaeology, environmental history, architecture, landscape architecture, and coastal ecology’s we explore how the memory of past storms impacted resilience leading up to Idalia, and how the memory of this most recent storm will leave its mark on the town moving forward.
