In 2022, the Borough of Belmar will be celebrating the 150th anniversary of its founding.
To celebrate this event we invite artists to enter works showing their impressions of and experiences in Belmar. All forms of art are welcome and they can be about Belmar today, experiences you and your family have had through the years, or works inspired by historical events and images. We hope to see images of the beach, the boardwalk, the sand and sea, boating, surfing, swimming, fishing, lifeguards, historic buildings, and all the other elements that make Belmar a beautiful place by the sea. |

Play is considered one of the most important human activities. The playing of games is universal, and for children game playing is a way to learn the values and ideas of a culture. For adults it is a stepping away from the real world and entering an alternative with different rules and outcomes. It is through the chaos of play that we gain insights into what makes a normal and stable world. In this exhibit, depictions of play, though the objects used in games or the joys and strains of engaging in play, will be a reminder of the value of play in our lives.
A marketplace of play related gifts and art will also be available. |
