Local artist Kayyum Allah curated the Happy Hill Neighborhood Association Art Anthology (HHNA) exhibit that was recently on display at the Milton Rhodes Center for the Arts from Jan. 19 – Feb. 18. The purpose of the art collective is to create a visual representation that helps to revitalize the oldest African American community in North Carolina.
More than 100 people from throughout the community filed into the pews of Union Baptist Church last Saturday morning to honor the life and legacy of neighborhood hero, William Alexander McCain. McCain, died on Feb. 11 from complications of a rare disease known as cardiac amyloidosis.
