Sundance Photo Emporium presents historic photography (1910-1930) by Kansas City Artist/Photographer ORVAL HIXON (1884-1982)

Orval Hixon was a Kansas City creative photographer whose talents far exceeded those displayed by his contemporaries. He used his skills and sensitivities to produce photographs that show a love for his art and a respect for his subjects. His large 11 by 14 glass negatives were personally hand sensitized and heavily retouched. He used the developed plate to create contact prints, bypassing the use of an enlarger.  He photographed 100s of theatrical and movie personalities as well as the masses who came to his gallery.

Sundance Photo Emporium is located at 509 Main St, Weston, MO, 64098. Hours of operation are Tuesday-Sunday from Noon-5:00 p.m. for more information contact Jim Finley at 816-386-9925 or jfinley@kc.rr.com

What was once a portal to
adventure, romance and the high seas will be again.
