The Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences (LBIF) was established in 1948 as a non-profit institution by artist Boris Blai. It provided arts and educational opportunities for the quiet island community. Blai felt that through exceptional art classes, exhibits and other activities the LBIF could engage summer visitors and residents.
Over the years, the organization has developed through the generous support of its membership, which includes 600 families from the Mid-Atlanrtic states. The organization is a vibrant community resource dedicated to providing arts, science and recreation programs to the members, residents and visitors to the area. The LBIF provides an After School Arts Education Program for nine area schools, an Artists' Residency and Retreat Program for New Jersey Artists, a Visiting Artists Program in Ceramics during the summer season, and special ceramics scholarships and residency opportunities.Science is a key to understanding the world around us. The LBIF develops science related activities to serve thier members and the community.
