Jennifer Hougbenou
Art
Jennifer has had a passion for art from an early age and holds a Bachelor of Science in Art with an emphasis in pottery and painting. She has spent 15+ years working with children and youth, inspiring creativity and confidence through art.
Throughout her artistic journey, Jennifer has shared her passion in many ways—from leading fun painting parties and teaching private art lessons to showcasing artwork in galleries. She enjoys helping artists of all ages discover new techniques while encouraging them to develop their own unique creative voice.
Jennifer believes that every child is an artist; they simply need the opportunity to unlock the creativity that already exists within them. Her classroom is a welcoming, encouraging space where imagination is celebrated, mistakes are viewed as part of the creative process, and every student is empowered to create with confidence. She believes there is no wrong way to make art—only opportunities to learn, grow, and express yourself.
Jennifer is excited to share her love of art with the students at Rising Stars Performing Arts Center and looks forward to helping each child discover the joy and confidence that come from creating something uniquely their own.
