Jersey Shore Fine Art Festival

Join us June 9-10, 2012 as the 4th Annual Jersey Shore Fine Art Festival returns to beautiful Long Beach Island.  The Southern Ocean County Chamber of Commerce once again graciously hosts this nationally-ranked fine art festival on the field of the Ethel A. Jacobsen Elementary School located at Barnegat Ave. and W. 5th Street in Ship Bottom.

The fine art festival showcases some of the nations most creative and award-winning artists from over 20 states and overseas.  For two days the Ethel Jacobsen Field will blossom with breathtaking sculptures, one-of-a-kind original fabric art, jewelry, paintings, photography and digital art.  Also marvelous creations in wood, glass, and ceramics along with mixed-media art, drawing, and printmaking. Find that perfect piece of artwork to enrich your home, your work place - your life!  Artists are present throughout the event, providing the opportunity to learn how each became an artist, how they are inspired and your specific piece created.    

Hours are Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Admission and parking are FREE.  Remember your wallet!  You are certain to find a piece of art—or several—that you cannot live without!  Access from the Garden State Parkway is quick and easy.  Book a room at one of the Island’s quaint Bed & Breakfast to make a memorable weekend of the event!  We’ll be waiting for you!
