Mission
Alfa Art Gallery believes that Visual Art is the ultimate form of communication and is therefore universal in its expression. Our mission is to support emerging and well established artists and to give their work exposure and a critical following within the art community. Our goal is to conduct local, national and international art exhibitions including: oil color, water color, mixed media, sculptures, photography, crafts and glass works.

Internship Opportunities
Alfa Art Gallery accomplishes as much as it does thanks to the assistance of many volunteers and interns. Our internship program is available to college students and recent graduates. This is an excellent opportunity to gain real-world work experience in an art gallery environment.
The internships positions are unpaid, but interns may arrange with their college to receive course credit (each department does things differently but there is usually some sort of internship proposal form. Talk to your department heads for more info). In exchange for their work interns will also gain valuable experience in a dynamic nonprofit arts environment and will receive an evaluation form and letter of recommendation at the end of their internship.
To apply for an internship, or to volunteer, please review the available positions below and send us your resume and cover letter letting us know which you’re interested in. Please tell us about your skills, and let us know your available start date and hours. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Please e-mail a resume to internships@alfaart.org.

Strategic Location
Alfa Art Gallery is located at 108 Church Street, in the heart of downtown New Brunswick, New Jersey.
New Brunswick, also known as “the Healthcare City”, is a city in the County of Middlesex, New Jersey (USA). It is noted for its rich ethnic heritage. At one time, one quarter of the Hungarian population in New Jersey resided in the city. Today, much of that Hungarian community continues to thrive.
