Upcoming Exhibition Sponsorships
The James A. Michener Art Museum continues to build on its reputation for
excellence in exhibitions and publications. There are many sponsorship
opportunities available for both small businesses and large corporations.
Exhibition underwriting is a vital source of financial support for the Michener
Museum and a valuable public relations tool for a corporate or business partner.
The Museum staff is happy to work with individual businesses and corporations
to develop a comprehensive benefit package that ensures prominent visibility
among a large and diverse audience. Print and radio advertising, news releases,
publications, and signage are but a few of the many items that may be included
in a customized recognition plan.
