Friends We Meet Along the Way represents a selected group of local artists who we have come to know, and who have contributed to the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences (LBIF) in various ways-- as writers, editors, educators, business owners, servers, studio managers, ecologists, and volunteers in support of the LBIF and its mission.  

These local artists are dually recognized for their unique talents and contributions, and for their artistic practice. As friends of the LBIF, we thank them for their dedication and welcome this new opportunity to exhibit their work in our gallery.
