Additional Sponsorship Opportunities
Northwest Art Alliance offers additional features that sponsors can select for more benefits and visibility. They are opportunities to have exclusive signage and give company handouts to patrons. These features can be combined with other purchased sponsor levels or purchased separately with a onetime “Show Support” level included for free. Prices for additional features will be tailored to the event. Options are:
Cultural Connections- Sponsors can underwrite a large booth of cultural art presented at a Best of the Northwest show. Examples: native American art, other ethnic art or specialty guilds. Cultural Connection booths could include artists exhibiting and demonstrating their work.
Art Education Outreach- Sponsors can underwrite a free art course to teach at senior centers, community centers and similar venues using Best of the Northwest artists as teachers.
Wine “Happy Hour”- Sponsor can underwrite an evening of artisanal wine tasting at a Best of Northwest show. We would partner with local specialty winery and serve appetizers. Adding live music can make this event more festive. Ideas for this feature include having your company logo on wait staff aprons and a company banner next to live music area. Your ideas are welcome.
Please contact us with your questions and ideas. If you desire, we will work with you to create a special benefit package, tailored to your needs. Email us at info@nwartalliance.org.
Thank you for your consideration!
