In addition to membership, there are many other ways that corporations contribute to the Seattle Art Museum. Your corporation can sponsor a range of special programs, including exhibitions, educational and community outreach programs, and fundraising events. There also are opportunities for your corporation to provide valuable in-kind support by donating gifts or services.

Corporate Sponsorship

The Seattle Art Museum provides outstanding sponsorship opportunities for small and large corporations. Exhibition underwriting is a vital source of financial support for the museum and a valuable marketing and public relations tool for a corporate partner. Exhibition sponsors receive prominent visibility among a large and diverse audience through print and radio advertising, news releases, publications, and signage.

The museum works hard to provide a benefits package that meets each corporation's needs. Review the list of upcoming exhibitions currently available for sponsorship.
