TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Library Toms River Branch is pleased to present “Washed on the Shore,” environmentally energized art by Alexander Taylor, in the McConnell Gallery throughout the months of May, June and July.
The New York City-born artist and actor describes his exhibit as an invitation to “reflect, reconnect, and remember that where there is water, there is life – and with it, the hope for renewal.” He describes his artistic philosophy as “empathy, ecology and the interconnectedness of life – ‘ecosystem over egotism’.”
Alexander takes his affinity a step further, mixing purified water from the Atlantic Ocean into his palette for striking colors and textures and thought-provoking interpretations of the beauty, power and vulnerability of the sea and its inhabitants.
“After I collect ocean water, I boil it three times,” he said. “The remaining elements change the nature and tone of my acrylics and watercolors. Owners of my paintings actually have a little bit of the Atlantic Ocean on their walls…

Knitters Seek Yarn for Kids' Holiday Gifts at the OCL Manchester Branch
MANCHESTER TOWNSHIP – The ball of yarn that you no longer need or want can bring warm smiles to the faces of Ocean County youngsters in need when the weather turns cold. The Ocean County Library Manchester Branch’s “Chicks with Sticks” will use it to make special handmade gifts in time for the end-of-year holidays.
Each year, the knitting and crocheting group supports the Ocean County Health Department’s collection drive of gloves, mittens, hats and scarves, given at holiday time to children who use the services of OCHD’s various clinics. Yarn is essential for this worthy cause, and supplies are low.
Please help if you can, by dropping off spare skeins of yarn at the OCL Manchester Branch, 21 Colonial Drive. For more information, please call Senior Library Assistant Mary Bridges, (732) 657-7600 or email mbridges@theoceancountylibrary.org.

Each session will be different — some open and playful, some thematic and targeted — but all rooted in the spirit of inquiry, sensation, and freedom.

WARETOWN – A year ago, a small photo array in the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch honored several former military members in honor of Veterans Day. Today, thanks to community members who have added to it, the display fills an entire wall and is still growing.
Branch Manager Jennifer Lennon placed the first photos before Veterans Day 2023, a gesture for family members and friends who “wore the colors.” It caught the attention of patrons, visitors and neighbors who asked if they might contribute.
“We still have people coming in and taking time to look over the pictures,” Jennifer said. “They ask if everyone is local. Some ask to be added. It makes me happy every time it happens.”
There now are 55 images of local wartime and peacetime veterans, five times the size of the original display, complete with names, branches, and theaters of operation.
“I grew up in a military family. My dad, uncle and grandfather all served. So I have always had a very healthy respect for the military and its traditions,”…

TOMS RIVER – The Ocean County Library Toms River Branch is pleased to present “Washed on the Shore,” environmentally energized art by Alexander Taylor, in the McConnell Gallery throughout the months of May, June and July.
The New York City-born artist and actor describes his exhibit as an invitation to “reflect, reconnect, and remember that where there is water, there is life – and with it, the hope for renewal.” He describes his artistic philosophy as “empathy, ecology and the interconnectedness of life – ‘ecosystem over egotism’.”
Alexander takes his affinity a step further, mixing purified water from the Atlantic Ocean into his palette for striking colors and textures and thought-provoking interpretations of the beauty, power and vulnerability of the sea and its inhabitants.

WARETOWN – A year ago, a small photo array in the Ocean County Library Waretown Branch honored several former military members in honor of Veterans Day. Today, thanks to community members who have added to it, the display fills an entire wall and is still growing.
Branch Manager Jennifer Lennon placed the first photos before Veterans Day 2023, a gesture for family members and friends who “wore the colors.” It caught the attention of patrons, visitors and neighbors who asked if they might contribute.

There now are 55 images of local wartime and peacetime veterans, five times the size of the original display, complete with names, branches, and theaters of operation.
