Jennifer Tank
Instructor
Hi, I'm Ms. Jen. I'm an artist, designer, and educator in Oakland. And I believe that art is a lot more than just pretty pictures. Art has the power to connect, heal, and inspire. I created Corner House Studio to bring that joy to as many people as possible In 2022 I put my decades long design career on the back burner to focus on making art with children. I've taken this passion to the next level by creating a space where young artists can explore their creativity, learn some new skills, and have a blast while doing it. As far as credentials, I've got a fancy B.F.A. degree from Virginia Commonwealth University. Those years of formal art training gave me a foundation that still shapes my creative process. It's like a secret toolkit that lets me fearlessly explore all different kinds of mediums and techniques. So, come on over! Let's create something great together and build the community we want to be a part of.

Kids Art Night Out - Circle of Painting Techniques
100%
by Corner House Studio
Oakland, CA
Once a month CHS stays open after dark for a relaxed, social evening of art, pizza, and friends — while grown-ups get a night of their own! This month artists will learn 4 different painting techniques mixed to create one wonderful radial composition. Our first layer is an exploration of watercolor, blending wet on wet and creating pattern. We'll eat pizza while it dries. Then we'll jump in with tempera learning to create texture and add details with an opaque layer. We'll wind down with art films before the night ends at 8:45. Mixed ages 5–10. Little ones get more help and big kids get more room to run with it. This one isn't from our regular class curriculum — weekly students won't be repeating anything they've done. CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY - All reservations include a 20% non refundable deposit. - Cancellations made more than 14 days prior to the event start date may receive a refund minus the non-refundable deposit. - Cancellations made within 14 days of the event start date are NONREFUNDABLE.

Kids Art Night Out - Funky Plants
100%
by Corner House Studio
Oakland, CA
Once a month CHS stays open after dark for a relaxed, social evening of art, pizza, and friends — while grown-ups get a night of their own! This month artists turn a plain ceramic pot and a faux fern into one very funky houseplant. We start by choosing a color story — three or four colors to lead with — then paint the pot and the leaves. While everything dries, we eat cheese pizza. Then out come the Posca markers for the personality layer: dots, stripes, tiny stars, a little face, veins running down the center of a leaf. We'll wind down with art films before the night ends at 8:45. Mixed ages 5–11. Little ones get more help and big kids get more room to run with it. This one isn't from our regular class curriculum — weekly students won't be repeating anything they've done. CANCELLATION & REFUND POLICY - All reservations include a 20% non refundable deposit. - Cancellations made more than 14 days prior to the event start date may receive a refund minus the non-refundable deposit. - Cancellations made within 14 days of the event start date are NONREFUNDABLE.

Kids Art Night Out - Block Bead Sculptures
100%
by Corner House Studio
Oakland, CA
Once a month CHS stays open after dark for a relaxed, social evening of art, pizza, and friends — while grown-ups get a night of their own! This month artists will create hanging sculptures from carefully selected and painted wood blocks. We'll choose our shapes and paint them. While everything dries, we'll eat cheese pizza. Then we'll return to the art room to string them all up to create beautiful, unique hanging assemblages. We'll wind down with art films before the night ends at 8:45. Mixed ages 5–10. Little ones get more help and big kids get more room to run with it. This one isn't from our regular class curriculum — weekly students won't be repeating anything they've done.
