• A Bit About Us

Take part in good food and good company.

Take Part Studio is a creative studio that hosts seasonal dinner parties and provides consulting services for hospitality-focused brands. We believe connecting over a nourishing meal in a safe and warm is space is a treat we all deserve.

THE TEAM

Sophia Arriola-Gibson

Sophia Arriola-Gibson has always loved throwing a good dinner party. She loved picking out the plates, convening a new combination of people, eating a delicious meal, all in a thoughtfully considered space. Combining her skillset in art direction and design, with the creative culinary prowess of co-founder, Hanna Temkin, Take Part Studio became an opportunity to infuse brand, community, and gathering.

Hanna Temkin

There’s nothing that fills Hanna’s soul up more than sharing a memorable meal around a table. Growing up, Hanna was always in the kitchen trying to find a task her grandma and aunties would let her help out with. These food memories, surrounded by family, a home cooked meal, and Southeast Asian flavors, are where Hanna’s endless pursuit for connection through food began.

A meal all about texture and the tactile. In this dinner we’ll explore how different foods welcome and complement each other in their own unconventional ways.

LOS ANGELES • TBA

An evening exploring the idea of weathering and aging, how an ingredient withstands over time and a dish garners flavor the longer it simmers. For this dinner we’re taking a step back and digging into the family archive, finding warmth and sense of place in recipes that have been passed on to the next.
