Business Partnership Program

Corporate donations to the Art Museum can be designated to the Annual Fund, Underwriting, Programming, or Special Events depending on the preference of the Corporation. Many corporations value the additional recognition received through sponsorship of exhibitions or programs. The Business Partnership brochure highlights donor benefits for each level of financial support.
