Nancy Peterson/ Owner of Edenside Gallery

Edenside Gallery has been voted best in Louisville so often that I think Nancy has run out of room to put the awards in the Gallery.

I have often said I can walk in Edenside blindfolded and find something cool that I can't live without.

She is the savviest retailer in the country.

Thanks to Nancy's skilled eye and advice I was able to improve my jewelry. I took her the first item of my production line and asked her what she thought. She said she could sell it and sell she did.

This is a shout out to you Nancy! Thank you for all you do for the arts and craft in our community!!

Also, Nancy is responsible for finding Sam and I our Bear Dog. He is a constant joy in our life and we praise Nancy often in our household.

Jennifer Hartlage's Secret Weapons of Economic Stimulation

Thanks girls for being a one family economic stimulas for Art in the Highlands!!!! The show was wonderful esp. considering we got rained out on sunday. But still the die hards came.

Scooter the Media Master

We have always known that Scooter knows how to get tons of free publicity.


This was more than evident at the Mellwood September Art Show when all of her media paid off and the masses attended a first year show at the Mellwood Art Center.

Rock on With Your Bad Self Scooter!!!
