Live and Love the Arts

A fundraiser for Newark Arts Alliance

$1,155 raised from 17 donors

$500 goal

I’m Carol Post.

I’m fundraising for Newark Arts Alliance.

The Newark Arts Alliance has become an important part of my life. I serve on the board and on various committees and I volunteer in the Gallery Shop.  My connection began when a group of artist friends helped me create a beautiful mosaic in memory of my husband Steve. I have found that surrounding myself with the creative energy of artists has enriched my life. Donating $5 or more can make a real difference. Please donate to this small but powerful organization between  March 6 at 6 PM and  March 7 at 6 PM eastern time and help me meet my goal of $500!

About Newark Arts Alliance

Mission: The mission of the Newark Arts Alliance, a locally supported 501c3 nonprofit organization, is to provide the citizens of greater Newark with the opportunity to explore and display their creativity, as well as to participate in cultural events that build community.

The Newark Arts Alliance, now in its new home in Shoppes at Louviers!

Established in 1993, the Newark Arts Alliance (NAA) is a membership organization dedicated to "developing community through the arts". All artwork exhibited in our Gallery and sold in our Gallery Shop is created exclusively by local artists. We present up to ten exhibitions each year, including solo shows, small group shows, and themed exhibitions.

The NAA offers classes for students of all ages and skill levels; holds events dedicated to the visual, literary, and performing arts; and sponsors a popular, full-day arts camp, Camp Imagine for two weeks each summer. Camp Imagine provides scholarships for many children to attend. We also offer free programs each month for musicians, writers, visual artists, dancers, and fiber artists.

To promote art in our community, the NAA sponsors artistic opportunities for children through our Art to Go projects brought to area community centers, low income housing projects, libraries and community events. These public art events are offered at no cost to the participant.

Membership is open to all, artists and supporters of the arts alike. The Newark Arts Alliance is supported through membership, class, and exhibition fees; art sales; space rentals; fundraising events; private donations; and grants. Additional support is received through business sponsorships and donations of goods. Our programs are also sponsored, in part, by a grant from the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency, in partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts. The Division promotes Delaware arts events on www.DelawareScene.com.
