The Middletown Library is hosting an exhibit of oil and acrylic paintings by the Rev. Gerda Liebmann and John White. "A World of Color" will run through Oct. 30 at the library. An artists' reception will be held 2-4 p.m. Oct. 11.

White works primarily in oil and acrylic, suiting his style to the subject. The Atlantic Highlands resident attended the School of Fine and Industrial Art in Newark, and was a commercial artist before beginning his career as a teacher.

Liebmann was born in Switzerland where she studied design. An ordained minister, she and her husband founded the Red Bank Community Church. She works primarily on larger canvases in oil and acrylic and her paintings usually have scriptural themes.

Middletown Main Library is located at 55 New Monmouth Road.
