For those of us in the Atlanta area this is a real disappointment.

Yes, it is a disappointment, but I'm not surprised that an art museum can't find the funds to repair a leaky roof.

Jerry, the sad thing is that the leak is in a relatively new wing of the museum, construction of which was begun in the early 2000s. Generally there is good support for the arts in Atlanta.
Now...I have heard a notorious architectural firm here in Atlanta proclaim "Good architecture leaks!" apparently in defense of one of the firms buildings. Here's a Wiki on the High: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Museum_of_Art
The Sally Mann exhibit at the High was the last in the exhibit's tour, the pieces will now be returned to their owners.

The Sally Mann that I remember was a feather dancer back in the 40's.
