We invite you to join the mass migration of Pacific shorebirds, raptors, waterfowl and songbirds.  Their shoreside respite is framed against the pristine backdrop of coastal glaciers and mountains, the breathtaking vista that we call home.  Come armed with your binoculars, spotting scopes, cameras, sketch books and pencils and leave with a heart full of memories.

"Through Our Eyes" Student Photo Showcase

  • Cordova Center Community Room (downstairs) 606 1st St Cordova, AK, 99574 United States (map)

Through Our Eyes is a participatory photography research project funded by the National Science Foundation’s EPSCoR program that invited young people in rural, Gulf of Alaska communities to document the role of land- and ocean-based wild foods in their lives. Participants created photographs and written captions showing how harvesting, preparing, and sharing wild foods shape their connection to place and culture. Their images also reflect the challenges they notice and the ways they imagine caring for wild foods into the future. Together, these images and stories offer a youth-led contribution to understanding how environmental change affects community health through impacts on wild foods. Cordova students will be displaying their work on this project.
