Ocean City Arts Center
The Ocean City Arts Center was established in 1966 by a few far seeing residents who urged city government to convert the old Wesley Avenue school building to an arts center. As an independent, not-for-profit organization, the center soon earned a fine reputation offering over 40 classes a week, sponsoring an annual boardwalk art show, a craft show and a juried art show. In addition, we now offer a senior craft show, as well as many workshops on and off the premises. Monthly gallery exhibits along with bus trips to metropolitan museums helped many develop a growing involvement for the arts. [more]
