At The Press Room, 730 North Broadway, Knoxville, Tennessee 37917

At Belleza, the health and safety of our staff and clients is always our priority. Because of the severity of the coronavirus, we have decided that it is in the best interest of our staff, clients and the Knoxville community that we postpone, “Not All Heroes Wear Capes,” our Hair-Fashion Show and Fundraiser for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society that was scheduled on April 5th, 2020. As they say in show business, “The Show Must Go On!” Our stylists have already worked countless hours preparing for the show, so we hope that you will join us for our rescheduled show to see their creations! All tickets purchased will be given a full refund or honored at the Fashion Show that we hold in the future. Items that have been generously donated for the silent auction will still be used to help us reach our goal of $50,000 for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We want to thank our friend, client and Woman of the Year Candidate Samyah Jubran for running a wonderful campaign for LLS! She is still collecting donations for LLS online. You can make a donation to her campaign here: tinyurl.com/szr8dp7

Rala: June Featured Artist Annie Rochelle

  • June 10, 2020 — June 28, 2020

Category: Exhibitions, visual art and Free event

Meet our June Featured Artist, Annie Rochelle!

She is a born and raised Knoxvillian and currently lives in South Knoxville with her husband and sweet cat named “Kitty.”

Annie attended Maryland Institute College of Art where she earned her BFA in Painting with a minor in Art History and Curatorial Studies concentration.

“A lot of my compositions with the human figure reference Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo works from art history. Recently I have been interested in scientific botanical illustrations and translating the Victorian model of the ‘Language of Flowers’ into a modern and more relevant vernacular.”

One of Annie's favorite things to do is plant flowers or vegetables with a glass of wine while watching her husband grill dinner.

Fun Fact: She won 1st place in our Dolly Art Contest last year and 2nd place this year!

  • June 8, 2020 — August 7, 2020

Category: Exhibitions, visual art and Free event

"I create art through photographic imagery. Inspiration comes from the natural world, specifically colors and patterns. Much of my work starts out as pictures of rocks, minerals, and fossils. I seek a different viewpoint, and many of the images are abstractions, and open to viewer interpretation".

On exhibition Downtown from June 8 to July 7 and at the West location from July 8 to August 7.

Tomato Head, 12 Market Square (865-637-4067) and 7240 Kingston Pike, Suite 172 (865-584-1075), in Knoxville. http://thetomatohead.com
