Programs Index - Evening Tent Programs | Daily Workshops | Reading & Film Series | Dust Bowl Traveling Exhibit

In the 1930s, the Farm Security Administration (FSA) photographed the faces and landscape of the Dust Bowl. Forty years later, Nebraska photographer Bill Ganzel found and re-photographed the survivors for a book and exhibition. The Dust Bowl exhibit, from Humanities Texas, combines the FSA photographs with Ganzel’s photographs to tell a story of strength and triumph in the face of despair.
