The next upcoming show is HOUSE AND GARDEN which runs July 15 through 30. and DROP DEAD which runs November 4 through 12.<br />We would love to have the artist come to look at the space and set their pieces up as they would like them displayed. Our lobby does not have a lot of wall space. We display on several small easels set up on a large table. The easels hold pieces up to about 2 feet wide / tall comfortably, but we may be able to accommodate some larger pieces by purchasing additional easels. In the past we have displayed between 6 to 8 pieces. We have made up signs with the artist's name, personal statement & purchasing information. We also include this information in the program as well.<br />Work can be for sale. The Theatre is not requesting a commission.<br />An effort is made to match the theme of the play with the artist's theme when possible. HOUSE AND GARDEN, anything that you might see displayed in a very traditional, upscale British house. For DROP DEAD, we can go modern and funky.<br />Full insurance on the building which is kept locked unless a member of the Board of Directors is there.<br />Contact: Rebecca 732.946.0427Art Starvedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07557082829913739961noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143296228038447733.post-62442203717503336432010-12-17T08:51:00.000-05:002010-12-17T08:52:02.605-05:00The Monmouth MuseumFriday Night is Shopping Night @ The Museum!<br />12/17 6-9 pm.<br />Enjoy a glass of wine as you shop for one-of-a-kind gifts by local artists!<br />Proceeds fund our educational programming.

As previously announced, the not-for-profit theatre must raise $500,000 by October 31st or the doors to the 61 year old theatre will be forced to close. The public is invited to meet with the theatre’s newly appointed Producing Artistic Director Roy Miller, along with Board President Gene Hammond and the Surflight Board of Trustees and staff. In a recent statement, Hammond said “we encourage any and all questions from the community as we reorganize and try to get the theatre back on solid financial footing.” Miller plans to reveal his initial plans for next season as well as initiatives that have already been implemented to keep costs under control. “We have a lot of exciting plans in store for everyone next season, but we need to get there first,” said Miller. “This crisis is very real, but when we get through it, Surflight has the opportunity to be one of the top not-for-profit theatres in the country. That is what we are asking everyone to invest in – not a sinking ship.” Miller, who has a long list of Broadway producing credits to his name including the recent West Side Story revival, is no stranger to the not-for-profit arena, having produced over 80 shows at Paper Mill Playhouse back in its heyday.Surflight Theatre has served the community for over 60 years, and now YOU have the opportunity to play a starring role in making sure that the Theatre continues to entertain audiences and educate artists for generations to come.For more information, visit www.surflight.org.Art Starvedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07557082829913739961noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8143296228038447733.post-73931716567182043332010-10-04T21:40:00.001-04:002010-10-04T21:42:19.321-04:00Press Release- Jersey Devil Art Exhibit & ReceptionWhat: Jersey Devil Art Exhibit Reception<br />When: Thursday, October 14, 2010 / 6:00-8:00 p.m.<br />Where: Toms River Branch<br /><br />CONTACT: Megan Ruisch / Information Services<br /> (732) 349-6200 xt. 5100<br /> mruisch@theoceancountylibrary.org<br /><br />Library Art Reception Honors State Folk Legend<br /><br />TOMS RIVER – On Thursday, October 14th, the Ocean County Library will host an art reception for “Visions of the Jersey Devil”, a group exhibit honoring the 275th birthday of New Jersey’s favorite mythical mascot.<br /><br />The exhibit showcases imaginative portraits of the Jersey Devil created by eight local artists. Artworks range in style from traditional to modern to comic-book. Many poke affectionate fun at the popular folk legend, while others draw inspiration from historic eyewitness accounts.<br /><br />Visitors to the Toms River Branch on October 14th are invited to join the fun in McConnell from 6:00-8:00 pm. Activities will include trivia, audiovisual presentations, and refreshments—including a “275th Birthday Cake” for the Jersey Devil. <br /><br />Originating in 1735, the legend of the Jersey Devil has fascinated the Garden State for close to three centuries. Hundreds of state residents claim to have seen the Jersey Devil in its natural habitat, the Pine Barrens. After decades of notoriety, “Mother Leeds’ 13th Child” has earned the loyalty of many New Jersey natives, who view the creature as an enduring state symbol.<br /><br />This program is free and open to the public.
