Ocean Art Gallery, under the direction of owner Frank Gromling, has always made it a mission to bring high-profile artists to Ormond Beach.
On Jan. 21 and 22, the gallery hosted “The Lost Weekend: The Photography of May Pang," a two-day exhibition that showcased candid photographs of John Lennon by his former personal assistant and companion, May Pang, who was present to meet patrons.
The gallery was born from Gromling's national publishing company, Ocean Art. Gromling is the exclusive art agent for Eliot Tiber of Taking Woodstock fame and LGBTQ activism. The pointillism art of John Darovitz also graces the gallery walls. His Influencers series features portraits created with tens of thousands of pins in cork.
Furthering its mission to promote the arts in the Ormond Beach community, Ocean Art Gallery offers art workshops, professional framing by certified framer Cherree Mallette and educational lectures. The gallery is located at 197 E. Granada Blvd.
