Hurricane Sandy was a devastating event that affected millions across the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Caribbean. Sandy Storyline allows those individuals and communities to share their accounts of the storm and its aftermath, with photographs and audio beautifully intertwined through the ingenious Cowbird storytelling platform.

Sandy Storyline is a truly collaborative project, building a community-generated narrative of the storm that seeks to inspire a safe and more sustainable future. This unique approach to documentary storytelling and civic dialogue is both timely and very personal for a New York audience. It creates a living archive that shows the potential for sharing stories on a very human scale. Contribute your own Sandy stories in the Storyscapes space.
