Etegami Workshop

Thursday, January 31st, 7:30 - 9:30pm
​at Oh Canary Studio
​$80 includes supplies
(10% of proceeds will be donated to the Tanenbaum Foundation)
Etegami is the Japanese art of postcard making that combines image and text with roots in calligraphy. It was developed in the 1960s by Kunio Koike, a calligrapher that wanted to do away with the rigidity of the tradition and practice of the tradition, opening up a format that allowed more freedom, lightness, and spontaneity. 
Through this workshop you'll learn the history, loose rules, techniques, and materials needed to create your own works of Etegami, which can then be sent or kept for yourself. As we enter a season of Thanksgiving, this is the perfect way to both fill your own bucket, and share your talents with others. 
The Tanenbaum Foundation strives to combat religious prejudice and spread peace through its programs in schools, workplaces, health care settings and areas of armed conflict.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE - extended through January 24th

WINTER ART CLASS CHANGES

I've decided to take a break this winter from my Tuesday afternoon Tween, Wednesday night adult and Saturday afternoon teen classes.  A family emergency in December has made me prioritize my family time and reconfigure my schedule. If you are looking for art lesson referrals or interested in private classes, please contact me and I will see if I can accommodate you. I thank all who have studied with me from the area since starting my lessons in West Orange in 2014. I have been blessed with amazing students and their families, and hope that this is just a pause.

PRIVATE ART LESSONS

For those looking for an even more individualized environment, Jennie offers a limited amount of private lessons in her studio. Lessons can be scheduled for one - two hours sessions, based on her availability. Private lessons are only offered during daytime hours: 9:30 - 5pm, depending on the day of the week. Private lessons may be scheduled in Jennie's home studio in West Orange or at Oh! Canary Studio in Maplewood, depending on space and availability.  

Rates begin at $85 an hour. To inquire about availability email or call (973-271-9104) with your interest, or complete the form below.

FAQs:

Can I enroll after a class has begun? 
Yes, enrollment in most classes is ongoing throughout the year and I offer flexible tuition packages.

If I'm interested, but your existing schedule doesn't work for me is there still a chance for me to enroll?
Possibly, please contact me with your availability. I may have other interested students on a wait list and might be able to form another session. Or, private lessons are a possibility. 

Do I need to bring supplies?
Supplies are included in your quarterly registration fee, unless otherwise noted. A sketchbook is recommended. Students who register for the full year in the fall will receive a sketchbook.
