Corporate Sponsorship

Align your brand with a museum that brings people together through art and experiences that inspire celebration, compassion, courage, and the will to act.

Through corporate sponsorship of the Brooklyn Museum, brands provide vital support for our canon-expanding exhibitions, hallmark public programs, and community-focused educational initiatives, all while engaging with the Museum’s diverse audiences both on-site and online.

Major programming opportunities include our beloved First Saturdays series (for twenty-five years and counting!), our roster of exhibitions, and our two hundredth anniversary coming up in 2024.

Now is the moment to invest in Brooklyn—the most powerful urban brand of the twenty-first century. To learn more, explore our partnerships with global brands below.

Bank of America

Bank of America has been a long-standing partner of the Museum, supporting exhibitions, Corporate Membership, and other initiatives for more than twenty years. Bank of America has generously sponsored multiple conservation projects, including those centered on our Assyrian reliefs and gilded papyrus Book of the Dead. The Museum is thrilled to continue partnering with Bank of America on exhibitions and public programs.

 

DIOR

DIOR serves as the lead sponsor of the annual Brooklyn Artists Ball, held each spring at the Brooklyn Museum. DIOR first collaborated with the Museum in 2021 as the lead sponsor of Christian Dior: Designer of Dreams, transforming our iconic Beaux-Arts Court into an enchanted garden. The groundbreaking exhibition was covered by key outlets such as Vogue and the New York Times, and it welcomed hundreds of thousands of visitors.

 

Nordstrom

Nordstrom served as the major sponsor of our blockbuster 2022 exhibition Virgil Abloh: “Figures of Speech.” As part of this partnership, featured items from the exhibition shop were offered in select Nordstrom stores nationwide. Nordstrom also served as the lead sponsor of the opening event, at which Nordstrom leaders participated in a panel discussion celebrating Abloh’s legacy. The opening earned coverage in outlets such as Vogue and Women’s Wear Daily.

 

Perrier

Perrier has been a Major Partner of the Museum since 2020. Through this partnership, the brand provides generous support for public programming and special exhibitions, including Studio 54: Night Magic in 2020 and Andy Warhol: Revelation in 2021. In 2022, Perrier sponsored several First Saturdays, activating those evenings with cocktails, complimentary sparkling water, and photo booths.
