Amid all the excellent books libraries have to offer, eyes may need a rest and gravitate to artwork hung proudly in the building. This artwork, including paintings and drawings created by Ocean County Arts High School students, wil be on display at the Lakewood Branch of the Ocean County Library, 301 Lexington Avenue, Lakewood, for the month of March, 2016.
The exhibit features work completed by gifted and talented students who participated in the Ocean County Arts High School. The program, now in its 6th year, offers advanced arts classes to students from public, private and home schools in Ocean County. Students, admitted to the program through audition, are released from their schools one afternoon each week during the spring semester to participate in the various courses that are taught by professional artists.
Works from six Ocean County students were selected fro the exhibit this year: Stefhanni Deleon, Calvary Academy; Cheyenne Cusumano, Jakson Liberty HS; Kelsey Donmoyer, Jackson Liberty HS; Leah Grosjean, Lacey Township HS, Shea Mortimer, Lacey Township HS; Julia Harrold, Toms River HS East.
