The 45th Annual Juried exhibit, running from March 2, 2025, through April 13, 2025. This highly anticipated exhibition will take place in the Museum’s Main Gallery, located on the Brookdale campus at 765 Newman Springs Road, Lincroft, NJ.

Featuring works from local, national, and international artists, the Annual Juried Art Exhibition highlights a wide variety of media, including painting, photography, mixed media, sculpture, video, and more. This year, we had around 300 submissions come from as far as Japan, Germany, Lithuania, and Israel, with over 180 pieces selected, further establishing the Monmouth Museum as a global arts destination.

Since its inception in 1979, this event has been a cornerstone of the Museum’s programming, bringing together exceptional talent and innovative artistic expression from across the globe.

“This exhibition is a true celebration of creativity and diversity in contemporary art,” said Erika Schaefer, Executive Director of the Monmouth Museum. “It’s an honor to continue this longstanding tradition of supporting artists and providing our community with access to such an inspiring array of works. We invite everyone to experience the power of art through the exceptional talent on display.”
