Please join us to celebrate the life works of Jim Ryon.
Jim Ryon's enthusiasm and hunger for new subject matter have taken him from the cradles of jazz in Kansas City to the streets and cathedrals of Paris, from mountain slopes of Colorado to Cypress Point Golf Course.  His other works, ranging from landscapes and seascapes, to sailing, fishing, hunting and impressionism, reflect the wide scope of his interests.
Jim graduated with a degree in Art from the University of Missouri at Columbia and then did graduate work at the Kansas City Art Institute and University of Missouri at Kansas City.  He taught art for the Kansas City Missouri Public Schools and Penn Valley Community College for 35 years.
Jim enjoyed sharing his passion for art and continued to give workshops and private weekly classes after retiring.
