"A Story of Floods" is a two-part project combining an augmented reality mural with a documentary highlighting Atlantic City residents’ experiences with sea-level rise conceived and designed by artists Kaira Villanueva, Carolina Montes, and Robert Soden.
This short documentary film will highlight Atlantic City and its continued experience with flooding, climate change, and resilience through residents’ stories and the testimony of city planners and coastal resilience professionals.

“A Story of Floods” is part of the NJ Coastal Resiliency Art Program, designed to creatively bring awareness to coastal risks and hazards that our state may face while addressing the need to involve and inform the public about these coastal hazard impacts and what actions they can take to reduce their risk.
The Atlantic City Arts Foundation was selected by the NJ Coastal Resiliency Art Program to serve as one of several community-based organizations to host and produce a project. This program is funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Coastal Management Program. It is being produced in partnership with the New Jersey State Council on the Arts.
