LETTER FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

LBIF STAFF

DEAR LBIF COMMUNITY,

Daniella Kerner Executive Director dkerner@lbifoundation.org

How truly fortunate we are to welcome 2021 on LBI with family and friends. In our desire to protect what we value and enjoy, the Board and Staff have been hard at work preparing for a strong and healthy summer here at the LBIF. We could not survive if it were not for those that support our mission to bring the community together through the arts and sciences. Looking forward we recognize there are still challenges to overcome, but together we will thrive knowing how precious our LBIF family, friends, and visitors are to us. We thank you.

A few highlights of the season are the return of our Back to Summer Party, our Foundation Arts Festival, our new Calypso Carnivale, Sundays @7 Concert Series, and our exceptional six day Seashore House Tour that can be viewed virtually from the comfort of your home or from our gallery. Thank you to all the dedicated Committee Chairs and volunteers who make these events possible. For 73 years, the Foundation has offered a place to connect with others through a distinctive blend of the arts, sciences and cultural programs. Our dynamic role in this community brings together people, places, and personal interests. Children build memories of their camper days and adults build a lifetime of memories of their summertime at the shore, whether it is a day, a week or an entire year. Our mission to nurture our vibrancy and remain a lively convener and catalyst for creativity and knowledge is stronger than ever!

LBIF HISTORY & BORIS BLAI Founded in 1948 by Boris Blai, the LBIF is an outstanding community cultural facility. Dr. Blai, a student of sculptor Auguste Rodin and founding dean of the Tyler School of Art, Temple University, envisioned a facility that would foster individuals and their talents. The LBIF has continued this vision by offering thousands of classes, workshops, exhibitions, and educational programs to the community. Since its first season, the LBIF has committed itself to the enhancement of the creative arts and the physical sciences, and though it began as a seasonal operation, the LBIF has grown into a year-round organization providing a place for learning, free expression, and the exchange of ideas and understanding.

73 YEARS & GOING STRONG “Boris Blai was born in 1893 in Ravono, Russia, and received his early training in sculpture and painting at the Kiev and Leningrad Imperial Academies. In 1912 he arrived in Paris to study at the École des Beaux Arts with Emile-Antoine Bourdelle and Auguste Rodin, later becoming an assistant to the master sculptor, Rodin. Blai also studied bronze casting and portrait painting in Munich. In 1927 Blai secured his first teaching position at the Oak Lane Country Day School in Philadelphia. ‘Uncle Boris’ turned his studio into a workshop for the students, with classes in woodworking, clay models for casting and ceramic pieces. The teacher and students even created a fountain and a boat together. He inspired his students with confidence, and his philosophy became ‘No one can fail.’ ”

BLAI SOCIETY MEMBERSHIP

WHY MEMBERSHIP AND THE BLAI SOCIETY ARE SO IMPORTANT

DEAR LBIF COMMUNITY, The LBIF’s founder, Boris Blai, was five years old when the Russian Flu pandemic spread throughout his homeland in 1899. He survived. A prodigy sculptor, as a young man Blai left Russia to study with Auguste Rodin before serving in the French Army during WWI. After the war, he moved to America at age 34. The year was 1918, the time of Spanish Flu. And so, twice in his young life, Blai found himself at the epicenter of a global pandemic. Once again, Boris survived. He established a reputation in the U.S. art world, partly by repairing Rodin sculptures for the Boston Museum of Fine Art. Blai was also quite an impresario; through a friend he’d met in the army, he became a fixture in Philadelphia arts and cultural circles. He befriended wealthy families, one of whom, Stella Elkins Tyler, donated her Melrose Park estate to be used as a school. There, in 1935, Blai established the Tyler School of Art, now part of Temple University. Apparently, two pandemics and the Great Depression did nothing to dent Boris’s ambitions or career trajectory. Thirteen years later, in 1948, Blai founded the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences. 73 years later, Boris’s grand vision survives. Art and culture abound, and our expansive, open grounds still feel wild amidst the packed density of LBI. Like a trip backwards in time. The year is 2021. More than one year of living with another global pandemic, we continue to be the keepers of the flame Boris Blai lit back in the 1940’s. I’m confident he would be proud of the wide array of artistic and cultural programming and events offered in these pages – many of which will be delivered with creative twists to enable folks to come together in ways they feel comfortable and safe. But I believe Boris would be even more heartened by the fact that we are carrying on strong as ever with a shared sense of purpose. Our hopes are high for reunion and renewal this summer. We will share the grateful realization Boris must have had, gazing out over the marsh towards the water, breathing the salt air: how exhilarating it is just to be human, to be alive! With sincere gratitude, we thank our Board and our members who have carried us through the toughest stretch in our history. You have given us the opportunity to carry on even stronger than before! Onward. Todd Strine, President, LBIF Board of Trustees
