His Art Is Featured In A Local Exhibit

If you've been a WRAT listener for any amount of time, chances are you know the name Mr. Marty.

He was a long time co-host of the Morning Rat Race... Spent over a decade helping us deal with the insanity of life with an awesome sense of humor and a deep love and appreciation for rock-n-roll.  Before being a member of the Rat Rock Nation, Marty Martinez was a member of the talented group of broadcasters that made 102.7 WNEW famous.

"Marty is a brother that I never knew I had," says current Morning Show host and WRAT Program Director Carl Craft, "and now, you guys have to check out Marty's paintings.  They're really special."

Since his retirement, Marty has been doing lots of cool things... but perhaps the coolest is his artwork.  His talents have always included drawing and sketches, but now... for the month of February... Marty's paintings are on exhibit at a branch of the Ocean County Library.  Specifically, find them at 10 East Lacey Rd., Forked River, 08731.

This exhibit is entitled, "Love and Spaces".

Marty called into the Morning Rat Race with Carl and Dave for a chat:

When Carl is not working at the greatest rock radio station known to mankind; a station known around the globe; a station that has the best music, co-workers, advertisers and most importantly THE BEST F'N LISTENERS you may find me doing any one of the following: Riding or making mountain bike trails. playing with his kids. playing sand volleyball on 5th Ave, cooking amazing food, including on his sweet smoker grill, going to concerts, swimming in the ocean, going to amusement parks with his kids, and other stuff that rocks!
