Friends of Metuchen Arts Plants Creative Roots in New Arts District Gallery with “Inside the Outside: Four Lenses on the Land”, a group photography exhibit.
The artistic landscape of Metuchen is blossoming! Friends of Metuchen Arts (FOMA) is delighted to announce the opening of its vibrant new home and art gallery at 315A Main St, nestled in the heart of the Metuchen Arts District, directly opposite the beloved Forum Theater.
Driven by a passion to cultivate art in all its forms – from the stroke of a brush to the rhythm of dance, the melody of music to the drama of theatre – FOMA, a dedicated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, envisions its new address as a dynamic center for creativity and learning. 315A Main St will unfold as a space where diverse artistic expressions find their stage in gallery exhibitions, where skills are honed in engaging workshops, where the community gathers amidst an outdoor art market, and where creative dialogue sparks and flourishes.
With its convenient location just a block from the Metuchen NJ Transit station (Northeast Corridor Line) and the ease of ample free parking, FOMA warmly welcomes everyone to its new home.
