The Hanford Nuclear Site sits on the banks of the Columbia River, threatening water, wildlife, and ways of life. It remains one of the most contaminated sites in the Western Hemisphere.

More about Tim Connor: Photographer and author Tim Connor will discuss his newly released book, Beautiful Wounds: A Search for Solace and Light in Washington's Channeled Scablands.

Tim uses the landscape as a portal into deep time—showing through photographs and historical narrative how the geography and landscape of the Hanford Site was shaped by cataclysmic flooding over 15,000 years ago. By looking at the past transformation of the land over time, we can begin to visualize a far-away future for Hanford.

Tim Connor is a national award-winning journalist/photographer and activist based in Spokane, WA. He is perhaps best known for his multi-year investigations and Congressional testimony into wide-reaching safety and environmental hazards at the Hanford Nuclear Site.

This event is funded through a Public Participation Grant from the Washington State Department of Ecology. The content was reviewed for grant consistency, but is not necessarily endorsed by the agency.
