    It is wonderful as always to return to Denmark and I am greatly honored to be asked to address you on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of this museum. I have to tell you that I cried a little when I received this invitation. Thank you.

    I would like to thank Pia Wirnfeldt, Christina Rauh Oxbøll, the many volunteers that make the museum vibrant, the people and the foundations whose efforts and money support it and the City of Middlefart. I also feel so happy to be with and feel the great energies of my colleagues and friends, Betty, Birgit, Niels, Peter, Larry and Nina. Nina, if you are up there listening and watching, I greet you with love. We all do. Thank you for your life’s work.

    I believe that many of the people here today are aware of the history of Clay Today and how this museum came to be.
