Corporate Partnerships

Our corporate sponsors make the Smart’s most ambitious dreams possible. We welcome partnerships, which help advance valuable opportunities for name recognition, visibility, and association with a world-class university and Chicago’s thriving art scene.

The Smart recognizes our sponsors through gallery-wall recognition, acknowledgment in exhibition publications (distributed internationally by the University of Chicago Press), campus-wide electronic kiosks, press releases, and university publications and announcements. The Museum also recognizes our sponsors in our email newsletter and on our social media channels through dedicated tagged posts. Past exhibitions at the Smart have been covered by more than 50 articles and have garnered nearly 6 million views, including features on national news, further raising visibility of our corporate partners.

 Additionally, the Smart provides opportunities to host private events at the museum at cost, private curatorial walkthroughs on demand for executives and clients, and invitations for executives and VIP clients to exclusive events celebrating exhibition openings.

Our sponsorship opportunities are individually customized to meet your needs. Contact Jessica Glaser, director of development, at [email protected] or 773.834.6886 to discuss what the Smart can do for your company.
