HAC and NEA team up to celebrate rural stories – in photos

With support from the National Endowment for the Arts, HAC is launching “There is More Work to Be Done,” a virtual exhibition celebrating the work of acclaimed photographer George “Elfie” Ballis (1925-2010), a long-time friend of HAC and rural housing, along with photos and stories from contemporary photographers who worked with our local partners in California, Kentucky, and Mississippi to capture our collective progress while exposing the work that must continue. As HAC approaches 50 years, these photos are a perfect opportunity to both reflect and look forward.
