Lake Villa District Library is proud to present A Picture is Worth 1000 Yards: Sports Photography of Walter Payton, a traveling exhibition on loan from the Dunn Museum.

The exhibition celebrates the life and achievements of Chicago Bear Hall of Fame running back Walter Payton through photographs and stories submitted by professional sports photographers from around the county. The resulting images stand as a visual testament to the great skill, driving passion, and sweet nature of Payton, as well as to the art of sports photography.
