“With the first session of Summer Arts Studio starting in less than 90 days, we want to make sure everyone has enough time to register. Last year we had so many sign-ups, we had to turn people away.”, says Aubrey Bolen, River Oaks’ Artistic Director at River Oaks. “What we have lined up this year can only be described as the most creative thing to ever hit summer camps in Central Louisiana.”

"Professors Instruct" – River Oaks Artists and Patrons ready to listen and learn
Unique lineup of classes, exhibits and lectures come to River Oaks in April

He is better known on a national level for his ceramics and pottery – having had his works published in two books and entered into several prestigious invitationals.

February 22 Exhibit Opening at River Oaks features Nicholls State Professor with exhibit of prints and paintings

Ross Jahnke has been influenced by artists like Jim Dine, Jacob Eli, and June Wayne, but for his exhibit entitled “Fast Food” it is probably most appropriate to quote artist Wayne Thiebaud: “Common objects become strangely uncommon when removed from their context and ordinary ways of being seen.” In his latest exhibit, Jahnke presents the visitor with the unique combination of traditional oil painting and printmaking he is known for.
