Great Blacks in Wax [exhibits]
- The possibility that in 1988 we would be celebrating the grand opening of a 10,000 square foot facility on North
Avenue seemed almost unimaginable. But we always knew that a higher power than the two of us was guiding this
effort. So we have always dared to dream, to believe that if we just "keep the faith", things would work out.
