About Evening of Witness: Powerful water events are shaping our world and lives ever more dramatically. The March 21st event Evening of Witness was a chance to reflect – as a global community – on our relationship with this dominant and essential force. The Magnum Foundation and Voice of Witness partnered to weave visual and spoken narratives about personal and international water politics. Supported by the ongoing Water Initiative at the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, this cross-platform documentary event took place in one of New York City’s most magnificent Gothic Cathedrals.
