History and nature intertwine in Tampa Bay and on its shores. There is no understanding of one without the other. Historian Evan P. Bennett, Ph.D., will uncover the deep-rooted relationships between water, land, and people to show how people have lived and worked on Tampa Bay over two millennia and consider how they might continue to do so into the future. Join this Florida conversation on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at 6:30 p.m. in TECO Hall.

Florida Conversations is free and accessible in person and streamed live on Zoom. We thank our sponsors: USF Libraries, WUSF Public Media, and AARP Tampa Bay. Shelley Blood graciously provides additional support.
