Our long-term vision - we strive to fine-tune our methodology for the creation & implementation of these small & large-scale community programs & events so that we may offer our expertise as a resource to other local nonprofits - assisting them in achieving there organization's missions while we work to achieve ours!
Who We Are
Beautiful Paducah is the brainchild of Western Kentucky natives - Tyler Wallace & Whitney Ravellette Wallace.
It began when Whitney decided to return to college to obtain a degree in Business Administration with an emphasis in Nonprofit Leadership Studies - her goal was to find a way to become a successful entrepreneur while simultaneously helping & investing in others - and the community as a whole.
From there - the couple both branched out working on several side projects.
Tyler Wallace, Logistics & Operations Manager for his family business Trees N Trends, decided to explore the world of music in terms of sound, lighting, staging, etc. and thus GT Productions was born.
Whitney developed a passion for creating events & unique programming through her many years of working in hospitality, from bartending & managing of Fat Moe's Bar & Grill to bartending & managing The Johnson Bar - and thus CoCreate Events was born!
Now as the owners of The Johnson Bar & with many special events, parties, and festivals under their belts - Tyler & Whitney have decided to use their talents & passion for creating memorable events & experiences to share with Paducah, and beyond! Through their work, they hope to be a stepping stone towards growth, and to bring a spark of life & excitement back to the historic & artistic areas in which they love so much.
And at last - Beautiful Paducah was born!
