The next Louisville Life explores the pasts of two unique buildings, learns about vitreography and hears from an expert on how to teach kids and adults to be more peaceful and positive. The program, hosted by Candyce Clifft, airs Thursday, Nov. 29 at 7:30/6:30 p.m. CT and Friday, Nov. 30 at 4/3 p.m. CT on KET2.

This fall marks the 25th anniversary of the start of construction on one of Louisville’s most distinctive downtown landmarks, the Humana Building. In an examination of the building’s beginnings, Louisville Life meets renowned architect Michael Graves; David Jones, who co-founded Humana with the late Wendell Cherry in 1961; and Mayor Jerry Abramson.

Next, the program visits the Henry Clay building. Located in the heart of Louisville’s theater district, the Henry Clay has been an Elk’s Lodge, a hotel and a YWCA. After a

$20 million mixed-use redevelopment project, the Henry Clay has become a multi-use space for downtown residents, businesspeople and tourists.

Then, local artist Julie May demonstrates a little-practiced form of printmaking known as vitreography. Using leaves and stems culled from Kentucky flora, May crafts prints that offer a unique natural and artistic view.

Next, Candyce interviews Eileen Blanton, executive director of Peace Education Program, as the non-profit organization celebrates 25 years of teaching kids and adults skills like conflict resolution and peer mediation.

And on the cusp of Louisville’s 230th birthday in 2008, Louisville Life takes a look at the city’s founder, George Rogers Clark.
