Description: The Essential Worker exhibition features color and black and white photographs that focus on workers essential to sustaining a thriving community. They come from the trades and the service industries and their tasks include preparing our meals, keeping us safe, cleaning up after us, tending our gardens, checking our health and even building our homes. One extraordinary fact of The Essential Worker exhibition is that none of these photos existed before November 2007. All ten photographers fanned out with their assignments, working at a fast-paced frenzy while the rest of us were leisurely enjoying our Thanksgiving meal and the holiday season.
Photographers include: Nell Campbell, Patricia Clarke, Kate Connell, Bob DeBris, Cathy Gregg, Ian McKaig, Larry Mills, Barbara Parmet, Matthew Straka, and Paul Wellman.
