Get involved...but how?

So, you want help Real Art Ways. Great! Here's how to get started:

Help spread the word.

Real Art Ways counts on you to introduce us to other people. If you'd like to help us out on a regular basis with our marketing - everything from distributing posters and flyers to assisting with large mailings to pro bono design projects - contact Sarah Brozna.

Help with Development Initiatives

Real Art Ways is a non-profit 501(c)3 charity that depends on the support of donors to keep its doors open. We welcome volunteers to help us with our donor communications and other fundraising events.  Interested volunteers should contact Julia Baldini.

Gallery and Event Help

We need volunteer gallery attendents for every Creative Cocktail Hour (on the third Thursday of every month) and many other events. Interested volunteers should contact Visual Arts.

Exhibitions: If you'd like to suggest an exhibition idea, or submit your own work, please read our submission guidelines.

Emerging artists in NY, NJ, and New England may enter our annual open call, Step Up, which accepts submissions from March - May each year.

Live performance & music/literary events/etc.: If you have an idea for a performance or event that Real Art Ways should present, please carefully read our submission guidelines, and follow the instructions on that page.

Cinema: have a film suggestion? Contact John Morrison. If you'd like to lead a discussion or plan an event in conjunction with a film on our schedule (we LOVE these), contact LB Muñoz.

Renting the space: If your event isn't a good fit for our presented programming, but you'd still like to have it at Real Art Ways, renting is an option. Learn more about renting our space.

NB: We're a small staff. We seriously consider all offers of help and all proposals, but sometimes, things just don't work out. Please be patient - we may not be able to respond to you right away. We appreciate your help!
