Corporate Sponsorship and Entertaining

Blanton staff members work with corporations to create tailored sponsorships to help fulfill your marketing and community outreach goals and to make strategic connections to the Blanton audience through our exhibitions and programs. The Blanton welcomes over 175,000 visitors a year and has 8,500 current member households.

In our inaugural year, the Blanton received the 2006 Public Project IMPACT award—an honor given to a non-profit organization by the Downtown Austin Alliance—for the museum's positive impact on Austin's downtown community. Now you can join the growing number of business leaders in Austin who recognize the importance of a thriving partnership between the business and the arts communities.

Corporate sponsors gain opportunities for marketing, entertainment, and public relations that can

• strengthen your image and prestige,
• increase visibility,
• connect to new and broader constituencies, and
• improve relationships with customers, clients, employees, and shareholders.

Corporate Sponsors have a wide variety of opportunities for Exhibition Support and Education Support at the Blanton. Sponsorship benefits, offered according to the level of support, may include:

• Recognition on printed materials and signage related to the project,
• Recognition on http://www.blantonmuseum.org, which receives over 350,000 hits a year,
• Facility Rental privileges for corporate entertaining, and as part of your event, the Blanton can organize special tours of the collection and exhibitions for your guests,
• Opportunities for additional advertising in prominent print media,
• Additional benefits to be determined with the sponsor.
