The "Life in the South" exhibit from the Huffman Collection in Hickory, SC, consisting of works by self-taught southern artists, opened at the Lindenau-Museum in Altenburg. Leipzig Consul General Fletcher M. Burton delivered a welcome address to the nine-member U.S. delegation and a huge crowd of interested Altenburg citizens, among them County Commissioner Rydcewski.
The cultural exchange between the U.S. and the Altenburg area demonstrated the great interest and enthusiasm on both sides to engage in people-to-people contacts.
