Welcome Amanda Perez-Morris

Amanda Perez-Morris is the Owner & Designer for Eleanor’s Revolt, The Arts Education Boutique striving to Educate, Create, Upcycle, and Give. She believes Creativity=Happy Living and works to encourage others to keep creativity alive in their own lives while thinking about their impact on the environment. Eleanor’s Revolt sells handmade upcycled gifts and DIY craft kits for kids and adults to encourage creativity in the home and the community. Each year Eleanor’s Revolt has pledged to donate 15% of all profits from the sales to keep Arts Education alive in local schools.

Amanda earned her Bachelor of Arts in History at San Diego State University and her Master of Arts in Education with a Specialization in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Phoenix. She has been an Educator for over a decade in the for-profit and non-profit sectors and is working to encourage a positive revolt against the budget cuts the Arts receive on a yearly basis in our nation’s education system. She believes in the impact creative opportunities can provide kids who struggle in the areas of Math, Science, and English and wants to see this change for future generations. She knows first hand-she was one of them!

One of the corner-stones of Eleanor’s Revolt is to Upcycle. One of the many ways Amanda strives to stay earth-friendly is by using second-hand donations and thrift finds in her product development and in her own life. She loves nothing more than to repurpose thrifty finds and use them to create beautiful pieces of art. All on a budget of course! She is the youngest of three girls in her family and shopping on a budget is in her DNA. In 2011, she and her husband ditched their jobs to travel the world for six months and get married along the way. She loves to research, read, travel, bake, watch movies, and drink a little vino while sitting on her second-hand couch.

Welcome Sammy Davis – April 19, 2012

Welcome Adrienne Hynes – April 12, 2012

Adrienne Hynes was raised on a ranch in Wyoming, with a Mom three daughters, and a Dad.  This family was “light years ahead of their time” and held an open view of the world.  She graduated from the University of Denver with a B.S.B.A. and a M.E. in Adult & Community Education from Colorado State University. Over the past four decades, Adrienne Hynes has devoted her considerable energies and talents to expanding access to learning, training and enrichment opportunities for adults of diverse ages, backgrounds and circumstances.

In the 1970s, Adrienne founded a first-of-a-kind educational program Womanschool Network, a unique program that over the next 10 years provided more than 10,000 women with the opportunity to polish and upgrade their skills, gain fresh perspective and a greater sense of confidence, and prepare themselves for new challenges.

She launched her own training and consulting business during the 1980’s. Over the next 15 years, she worked with up to two dozen independent contractors to provide specialized training – in areas ranging from time management to conflict resolution to pre-retirement planning to diversity awareness – for the employees of AT&T, US West, Kodak, Hewlett-Packard and other corporations.

Since the late 1990s, she has been engaged in a variety of activities focused on the unique needs, interests and contributions of people over the age of 50.

In 2000, Adrienne decided to shift gears. She downsized her business, and with five other people formed a nonprofit organization, Institute for Lifework, focused on “reinventing aging.” The institute organized and hosted several well-attended conferences in the Denver area, including one, “The Face of Aging is Changing,” that featured former Colorado Governor Dick Lamm and his wife Dottie as keynote speakers, and was broadcast on public television.

More recently, Adrienne has been focusing on her expertise in Fashion and is leading workshop on Fashion for Women 55+.  In addition, she is a consultant to senior recreation centers focusing on improving the lives of seniors using contemporary techniques.
