Art on the Porch Social!
August 18, 2025
5:30 - 7:00 PM
Come, browse, and maybe buy some art from Cathleen Englesen, a local art historian who has been painting LBI and the surrounding areas for years.
Sip some wine, enjoy some snacks and stay for the Monday Night Talk that will feature Cathleen, as she shares the stories behind her captivating paintings and murals that grace Ocean County. From preserving historical scenes across New Jersey to her unique commission with McDonald's for their Southern Jersey restaurants, her work is a beautiful homage to our local heritage.
