Art Display At Stockton Public Library

Photography Exhibit by Cheryl Roy Calvin

Cheryl Roy Calvin has some of her photography on exhibit in the Carnegie Room of the Stockton Public Library until late August of 2006.

Cheryl was born in Ellis County and reared in Rooks County. Her mother and father, John and Olive Roy, raised ten children in a old stone farmhouse west of Stockton. That old house was later torn down and a new ranch home was built. Cheryl attended Stockton High School from 1968 to 1972.

Some of her "Slices of Life" photos were taken during travels to other states or just traveling the scenic backroads and by ways of Kansas.

All photography exhibited is for sale. Cheryl will make a donation of 20% to the Library on any sold photography. This donation will be applied to the Library for the cost of buying new books.

All photography will remain on exhibit until August 25, 2006.
