Red Bank - The Cultural Center
|
|
| Red Bank is the Jersey Shore’s cultural, social and commercial destination. At only an hour’s ride from New York City, by car, train or bus, it’s a fabulous day or weekend trip! | |
| Situated along the southern bank of the Navesink River, this beautiful waterfront town boasts of many gourmet shops, coffeehouses, cafes, specialty shops, restaurants, and a lively nightlife. It is a charming town with beautiful brick sidewalks and Victorian street lamps. The entire town is very walk-able. | |
Food lovers will enjoy the dining and nightlife scene that rivals New York City’s Greenwich Village, and for shoppers, there is antiquing, art galleries and funky boutiques. A trolley shuttle transports weary shoppers between the heart of Red Bank and the Grove Shopping Mall in Shrewsbury. For music lovers – there is Count Basie Theatre, named after the legendary jazz pianist that was born here in 1904. Built in 1926, the theatre is a beautiful place to take in a concert or play. The theatre is known for first class entertainment in an intimate setting. There have been several annual festivals held here, The Red Bank International Film Festival and the Two River Film Festival. The beautiful Navesink River, lined by many estates, is the setting for popular outdoor activities including boating, sculling, sailing, and fishing. The Monmouth Boat Club, Marine Park, and the slips of the Molly Pitcher Inn provide access to the Navesink and, from there, the Atlantic Ocean. Don’t have your own boat? You can rent a canoe or a rowboat until mid-October. |
