About Art Walk

The North Beaches Art Walk is a monthly event orchestrated by the North Beaches Art Walk Association, a non profit organization 501 (c)(3) based in Atlantic Beach, FL.

Since its beginning in October of 2007, the North Beaches Art Walk has continued to receive positive support from the community, and has an ever-growing list of participating merchants and artists. Spread the word - and hope to see you at the next Art Walk!

As a non-profit, NBAW strives to support other local non-profits. We allow one non-profit a month to set up an informational table in front of Archway Gallery to promote themselves, and to sell art as a fundraiser.  (More Details)

Ian Forrester

Painter

Ian Forrester is an award-winning painter who studied painting and printmaking at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and before that at Douglas Anderson SOTA in Jacksonville, Florida.  Rock-and-roll and the musicians who create it heavily inspire Ian. While in Boston, Ian produced a series of portraits of the talented musicians who were performance majors at Berklee College of Music, and is currently working on a documentary of the rock band White Shoe Brown Shoe. Also present in his work is an immense respect of the ocean, and the surfing, skating, and the coastal lifestyle that that contains. He often returns to these subjects in a continual exploration of his relationship with the sea. He is also currently working on a graphic novel with a writer from Suffix University (Boston). His work differs in size, medium, style and subject matter. He continually paints everything from large-scale portraits of friends, to small abstracts, and skateboard that he sells through Skatebomb. Ian taught visual arts as an extended day instructor for a local elementary school, and has since decided to pursue a degree in art education from the University of North Florida.
