This program offers practical experience to students. Students assist in the preservation and conservation of Galeria Aniela cultural heritage and a focus for cultural activities in the region. The course has been designed to balance the needs of the trainees with the needs of the Gallery.

The Gallery requires friendly, conscientious, dedicated, knowledgeable trainees, who love art and enjoy interacting with the public and promoting the role of art as well as the Gallery and its collection. In return we offer trainees to become a part of a stimulating ‘living project’ balanced with practical experience, art appreciation and insights into the gallery work. 

Trainees are given an opportunity to gain experience in; cataloguing, filing, curetting exhibitions, painting and restoration, art appraisal, client’s contacts, art sale and art gallery management, guiding, hanging an exhibition, and or creative gardening  in the Sculpture Park. Trainees attend education specific to exhibitions and carry out research and can be involved in a wide variety of projects.  Before any work is undertaken the students are given appropriate training by Galeria Aniela management to ensure high standards are achieved. Trainees work are an integral part of the gallery.

Galeria Aniela at any one time has over 100 works on display from the gallery's permanent collection. Apart from a core of major works, exhibitions are changed on a rotating basis. Every couple of months, one of the gallery areas will change its display. Also, there is a constant flow of special works of art and major exhibitions.

Pre-booked trainees are included in the Gallery Calendar and may attend corporate events and VIP parties. Trainees have access to the gallery library, preview exhibitions and the cocktail parties, cultural exchange as well as friendly and live art discussion. If required, student attending the training program may be "in residence" and have the free use of living self-contained 4 star accommodation. Resident students provide their own food; linen and transport, cost of private telephone calls must be reimbursed. Galeria Aniela has no government funds and we are unable to provide any financial assistance.
