(RED BANK, NJ) -- There are over 50 works by 31 artists in the latest Jersey Artist Registry art exhibition at The Oyster Point Hotel, curated by Ellen Martin, founder of the JAR. The exhibit runs from May 8 through June 29, 2026. The exhibition includes a wide range of styles and media, from Brian Hallas' surreal photography to Gary Steven Groves' hard-edged geometry to Jodi DiLiberto's mystical fractals.
"With this variety, I hope everyone can find something they love," says Martin.
The JAR is an online registry containing the work of top New Jersey visual artists. It was founded by Ellen Martin to provide an easy-to-use, one-stop resource for art lovers, collectors, interior designers, and gallery owners. Interested persons are free to contact the artists directly, as Martin accepts no commissions.

The opening cocktail reception will be held at The Oyster Point Hotel on Friday, May 8, 2026, from 6:00pm - 8:00pm. The final day of the event is June 29th. The Oyster Point Hotel is located at 145 Bodman Place in Red Bank, NJ. The event is free and open to everyone. There is free parking on the premises.
Martin has curated over 70 exhibits and events during her tenure as The Oyster Point Hotel's Director of Art Programming. She received her BA in Art History from Brooklyn College.
Oyster Point Gallery Exhibitions, initially conceived by President Kevin Barry and currently curated by Ellen Martin, provide a prestigious and viable alternative gallery venue to artists from New Jersey and nearby locations.
Both emerging and established artists, many of whom are award-winning, have been included in the exhibitions that are shown in the public spaces of the first two floors of the Hotel.
The work is primarily two-dimensional and encompasses painting, photography, wall-mounted sculpture, collage, and collaborative work. The Gallery is an asset to both our community and the Hotel's guests.
