"We are so honored to be able to show my old friend Jerry’s work in the Gallery. If Jerry and I were to be able to look into the future back in the 60’s when we met, we sure would’ve gotten a kick out this. I made sure that I worked on hanging this show in particular. His work is exemplary…” Jorma Kaukonen,member of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and a Grammy nominee, he is founding member of two legendary bands, Jefferson Airplane and the still-touring Hot Tuna.
