Visitors will find that Jim’s many explorations of global issues and landscapes begin and end at the gallery, situated on the brick Main Street of Lindsborg, a culturally rich town of 3,500 in central Kansas. On display are Jim’s large-scale prints of recent work, as well as posters and greeting cards from favorite subjects and locations. All are made in the gallery.
Jim Richardson said, “I feel lucky to have a base for my travels in a small town with big creative energy,” said Richardson, who has been photographing for the magazine since 1984. He also represents National Geographic in workshops, on cruises, and in keynote lectures, media appearances and social media.
Also in the gallery Kathy Richardson offers a browsable collection of antique, vintage and contemporary glass, stone and metals that are used in designing her jewelry line called IBISwoman. Guests may select from earrings, bracelets and necklaces from the gallery display tables — or they may wish to collaborate with Kathy or IBISwoman co-designer Briana Zimmerling on a made-to-order piece. Sometimes these may be completed in the moment.
Kathy Richardson said, “We also love to help our guests discover other great Lindsborg shops, galleries and attractions, as well as our favorite places across Kansas.”
