By sponsoring an exhibition, event, program, or collection, your company can significantly increase its visibility and stature.
A variety of sponsorship opportunities are available and include special exhibitions, collections, educational programs, fundraisers, and events. Benefits are commensurate with the level of sponsorship. Underwriting of exhibitions and activities provides an exceptional opportunity to reach the Museum’s highly desirable audiences from throughout San Antonio and South Texas, and reflects both an interest in the people of the region and appreciation of the arts.
