Hermosa Arts & History Association (HAHA), organized in 1999, seeks to preserve our local history; educate our youth; promote visual, written, and performing arts in Hermosa; and involve the community in all of these efforts.
​
We strive to bring together residents of the greater Hermosa area to create a cohesive community based on our appreciation for each other's unique experiences, cultures, traditions, and histories -- and our common humanity.

We are an all-volunteer organization with many active members who live in, or have ties to, Hermosa and eastern Custer County, South Dakota.

As you can tell from our acronym we also have a lot of fun.
