TOMS RIVER — The Brick Township-based Laurelton Art Society will have an exhibition on the second floor of the Toms River branch of the Ocean County Library until July 29.
The Brick Township-based organization began four decades ago when a small group of artists pooled their efforts to provide a space in which creators and art aficionados could share ideas and budding artists could hone their skills. Members take part in monthly demonstrations of oils, watercolors, pastels, pen and ink and more.
According to the library, the Laurelton Art Society offers cultural programs, demonstrations and workshops and annually grants scholarship awards to high schoolers who intend to pursue art studies.
Dan Fitzgerald, public relations staffer for the Ocean County Library, said via a release that Laurelton Art Society members “provide guidance to empower new artists, to encourage experimentation in mediums and to bring imagination into self-expression.”
The Laurelton Art Society exhibition is free and open to the public during normal branch operating hours.
For more information, visit or call the Ocean County Library Toms River Branch at 101 Washington St. or call 732-349-6200.
