With a great deal of support we were able to put together this very meaningful exhibit. 'Spirit of Quesnel' represents the impact and legacy left by the late Stanley Boyd, through his lens. Visit the Gallery before June 28th to view this collection of Stan's photographs, some are still available for purchase! We are very grateful to all those who attended the opening reception on the evening of July 6th. The Eldzi drummers opened the evening and then we got to hear stories from family and friends of Stanley. We heard moving words from many who were close to Stanley. This included stories of his political achievements from Terrence Paul, touching words from Nazko Chief Leah Stump, and heartfelt stories from Stan's sister Doreen Patrick, and wife Laura Boyd. We have many thanks to give to those that made this exhibit possible; Our sponsor The Bare Family in memory of Frances Bare, The Lhoosk'uz Dené & Nazko First Nation Bands. As well as Doreen Patrick & Maureen Trotter for making this all possible, and kudos for learning how to frame and hang a professional exhibit!! We were able to find and colourize some of the many newspaper articles featuring Stan Boyd's life and achievements. These stories are posted on our gallery wall with the exhibit, as well as below for you to view. Your browser does not support viewing this document. Click here to download the document. |
