TOMS RIVER –  Young adults can sharpen their art skills, or develop new ones, during “LBI Lighthouse Painting for Teens” at the Ocean County Library Toms River Branch, 3 PM Tuesday, April 18.

Ocean County-based artist Liz Paseler will demonstrate her techniques of applying oil paints to canvas and will offer step-by-step instructions as participants create their own striking renditions of the Long Beach Island Lighthouse. All materials will be provided.

Liz spearheaded the “Engage Toms River” community mural, which is seen by drivers, bicyclists, and strollers along Water Street downtown every day. Her idea became reality through a $10,000 grant from the Jay and Linda Grunin Foundation, and with the support of the Toms River Business Improvement District and the Toms River Artists Community.

The Liz Paseler Art website contains information and photos referring to art classes, coaching, and paint parties, plus a gallery of finished works.
