Statement on Barnett-Aden Gallery continued:

tors, and print makers who, otherwise, might not have had such early public display for their works.

Through encouragement and support, Mr. Herring and Mr. Aden could and did bring their organiztional [[organizational]] skills and knowledge of the arts to the cultural community. It is good to know that the Barnett-Aden Gallery, a symbol of the dedication of Mr. Herring and Mr. Aden, will continue through the efforts and expertise of its present director, Mr. Adolphus Ealey. 

I know that I join many others in wishing this exhibition the greatest success. It is a fine tribute to Mr. James Herring and Mr. Alonzo Aden.
