The Blanton seeks support from individuals, corporations, and foundations for the museum's wide variety of education programs. The museum offers special underwriting and corporate sponsorship opportunities for education and other highly visible programs and will work with you to develop a plan tailored to your objectives and budget.
Support for the Blanton's education programs helps the museum connect art and ideas to K–12 students, teachers, university students, faculty, staff, and art lovers of all ages by:
- engaging the community,
- reaching new audiences,
- expanding outreach programs, and
- developing new educational initiatives and improving existing ones.
The Blanton seeks support for the following areas:
University Programs
The Blanton works with members of UT faculty and other area colleges to integrate the museum's resources into their courses, to participate in programs, and conduct research. University students take part in internships, social events, and the Student Guild—a volunteer group with 100 members.
K–12 Programs
The Blanton has served the Austin Independent School District for over 30 years bringing K–12 students to the museum to study art as well as reaching art beyond its walls through online education resources and off–site programs in underserved communities.
Public Programs
The most highly visible programs at the Blanton directly serve tens of thousands of participants every year. Support for these programs ensures the Blanton remains engaging, enlightening, and, most importantly, accessible to the museum's growing and increasingly diverse audience.
