Ocean County based muralists and artists Jasen Mack and Tim Sramowicz will be the featured artists through their displays on the beach. A special nod this year will be given to legendary surf photographer Dick “Mez” Meseroll whose iconic work will be displayed along with local artists in the circle on the sand.

Over in Bradley Park, the Transparent Gallery will feature artwork from participating festival musicians, a special surfboard collaboration, along with special pop-up performances.  Additional updates with participating artist artworks to follow, and proceeds from the art sales are given to local Asbury Park and Jersey Shore based charities.
