In this special edition of Beyond the Frame, we dive into the incredible world of oyster harvesting and planting across the span of more than 115 years.

In partnership with Matheson Oyster Company and Chesapeake Bay Foundation, we ventured across Hampton Roads on an in-depth journey learning about oyster harvesting, aquaculture, and oyster restoration in the world around us today.

Explore the full-circle connections from the past to our present through two works by renowned maritime artist Clifford Warren Ashley.
