Belmar is a great place to go people watching. The beach, the boardwalk, the marina, Main Street, they all can be very exciting in the warm weather. Unfortunately the weather has been quite frigid the past few months and the summer is still months away. However there is one place you can go right now to get your fix of people, and that's the Boatworks, which is hosting PEOPLE A Juried Photography Exhibition. Show jurors Robert and Elizabeth McKay have chosen 46 photographs to be part of this exhibition, which opened tonight.
Two consecutive days without new snow is reason enough to go out, but tonight's crowd, estimated at around 135, was also very interested to see the artwork.
This exhibition fills all three of our galleries. Many different styles and settings, both color and black and white, but all have in common a portrayal of humanity.
The following are the works chosen for awards by the McKays:
