Paintings and drawings created by Monmouth County Arts High School and Arts Middle School students are on display at the Oceanic Free Library, 109 Avenue of Two Rivers, Rumson, for the month of June.
The exhibit features work completed by gifted and talented students who participate in the Monmouth County Arts High School or Arts Middle School. The programs offer advanced arts classes in creative writing, dance, instrumental music, vocal music, acting and visual arts to students from public, private and home schools.
