Middletown, NJ—During the month of September, exceptional art produced by local artists will be on display at the Manasquan River Group of Artists' Invitational Art Show and Sale, sponsored by Manasquan Bank, at the Middletown Arts Center. The show will feature the art of 65 MRGA members and their guests from the Art Society of Monmouth County who will compete for awards provided by OceanFirst Bank.The show will be open September 3-29 during business hours. Admission is free. For details, visit www.mrga38.org.
The Manasquan River Group of Artists was formed in 1938 by Ida Wells Stroud, a prominent artist and teacher in the School of Fine Arts in Newark, and her daughter, Clara, who resided each summer in Herbertsville where Ida held outdoor painting classes on the banks of the Manasquan River. The group first met in members' homes. Today MRGA meets at the Curtis House in Brielle and remains true to its roots to promote the work of local artists.

In the spirit of collaboration and appreciation for musical brilliance, we bring you our monthly concert series — pairing tunes from legendary masters of rock, along with some unsung heroes following in their footsteps. Settle in for an intimate vibe akin to MTV Unplugged, Storytellers and Behind the Music, as singer/guitarist Kevin Spyker performs timeless hits and hidden gems, accompanied by an array of instrumentalists from the Belmar Arts music collective.
Reserve your seats for our series launch on May 18th — highlighting the music of rock icon Tom Petty, with an opening set honoring the up-and-coming band known as Dawes...each month we will tribute two different bands.
Between songs we’ll share some history and fun facts about our featured songsters.
We’re honored to name our tribute series after the memorable Dawes song / album “All Your Favorite Bands” with the anthemic refrain:
“I hope that life without a chaperone is what you thought it'd be,
I hope your brother's El Camino runs forever,
I hope the world sees the same person that you've always been to me,
And may all your favorite bands stay together!”
