Genna Greene always knew she wanted to be a fashio

Genna Greene always knew she wanted to be a fashion and costume designer. After formal training in New York under Nicole Miller, Genna teamed up with award winning artist Matthew Tyldesley to combine wig art and fashion design. Still partners, you can view their eccentric combinations on social media. Her costume designs have appeared in major motion pictures and in theme parks, 36 of which are at Shanghai Disney.

Genna opened her Absolute Studio Theater a month and a half before being forced to shut down due to COVID-19. Now, Genna’s back and her theater will be doing an outdoor performance of Rocky Horror Picture Show next Saturday. Along with zany costumes, actors will be adorned with masks and gloves, and the audience will have plenty of room to social distance. Because it will be outdoors, this performance is contingent upon the weather.

Be sure to visit the Absolute Studio Theater’s Facebook page for more details and any announcements regarding the Rocky Horror performance, as well as other future events she has lined up before the end of the year.

When Uneena wraps up her workday as an administrat

When Uneena wraps up her workday as an administrative assistant at U of L’s Division of Nephrology and Hypertension, she makes her way to Mellwood to start her fun job: making and selling jewelry. For Uneena, coming into her shop is a way for her to engage her creativity and forget about the stresses of the day.

While she’s always had a creative streak, Uneena discovered her passion after taking a jewelry making class here at Mellwood 10 years ago. After speaking with the teacher about what she wanted to do with her creations, Uneena opened her studio/shop with her sister, Kay, and began selling their work.

When entering her shop, you’ll find an assortment of necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. While some of her glass bead work is still available, Uneena has been transitioning to natural stones and crystals. The gems she works with all carry special meanings and dictate the shape each piece ultimately takes. If you have an idea for a piece or would like to have an existing piece of jewelry further customized, Uneena does take special custom orders. To see more of her work, or to have something custom made, be sure to visit her shop, Uneena’s, here at the Mellwood Art Center.

The desire to pursue art can develop at any point

The desire to pursue art can develop at any point in life. For some, it’s a lifelong passion. For others, like Betty Blu, it’s a more recent calling. For her, it started with a class 12 years ago. While she wasn’t certain it was something she would like, Betty invested in a pottery wheel after the first class so she could practice what she learned between sessions. As a lifelong learner, Betty didn’t stop with pottery. When the pandemic hit, Betty saw an opportunity to expand her skills into stonework, which she now sells alongside her pottery. Among her wares are cups, vases, salt shakers, and polished stones and crystals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. Be sure to stop by her studio in our courtyard to see more of her work. On nice days, you may even catch her outside, working at her wheel.
