This post is part of a series of creative works featuring original photography, videography, animation, and graphic design by Shayenna Nolan titled “Windsor Watersheds”.

Windsor Watersheds was created with the goal of empowering Windsor-Essex residents to understand the issues facing our watersheds today. Designed for social media, the series is currently in the process of being posted on our HHL channels to educate and engage community members.
