I’m Terry Foreman.
I’m fundraising for Newark Arts Alliance.
To me, the arts are everything! From the inception of the Newark Arts Alliance in 1993, to what it has become today, it has been a journey of exploration of every kind. I've raised my kids in the arts, met lots of wonderful artists and arts supporters and felt a part of the community in a powerful way. I've helped create this organization (along with many others!) and have also enjoyed the countless opportunities it has provided me as an artist. I've taught classes and camps, made murals, exhibited in shows, sold art in the shop and at craft shows, gotten commissions, represented the arts on committees and boards, partnered with other artists, and helped kids have great art experiences even if their families couldn't afford it. If this organization didn't exist I would have had a very different life, and I don't want to think of what that would have been. Join me in celebrating what the NAA has contributed to community life and making sure it continues to serve generations to come.

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.
