Exhibition - Long Beach Island: A Love Letter

You’re invited to a special exhibit of Long Beach Island’s mysterious beauty and to meet the artist whose images define it. The Ocean County Library Long Beach Island Branch will hold a reception for photographer Charles Gravener and his exhibit “Long Beach Island: A Love Letter,” 2 PM until 4 PM Saturday, May 11.

Charles characterizes his display as captured moments that embody the beauty of life on Long Beach Island, adding that mere words cannot express his gratitude for the memories, mysteries and magic that he experienced while growing up on its sunlit beaches and moonlit streets.

“What you see through this exhibit is an attempt to convey my appreciation through a small collection of my own images and some words spoken from my heart,” he said.

Take a little time to explore, enjoy and rediscover your own love for the beautiful barrier island that, for Charles Gravener and many others, is home.

“Long Beach Island: A Love Letter” remains on display Wednesday, May 1 through Thursday, May 30. The display and reception are free and open to the public. No registration is required.
