Exhibition Sponsorship
Sponsorship of The Met's exhibitions, performances, programs, benefit events, and new initiatives is available at various levels.
Corporate sponsorship provides significant brand exposure across media, promotion through The Met's extensive global press network, creative activation and content opportunities, product development and licensing, and unparalleled access to the Museum for client and employee engagement. The Met works collaboratively with its corporate sponsors to develop partnerships that are tailored to meet strategic business objectives and marketing goals.
The Met is the most visited art museum in the United States and the top tourist attraction in New York City. In addition to the 7 million on-site visitors to our galleries and events in a typical year, the Museum has nearly 38 million web visitors annually, over 11 million followers on social media, and countless more who participate in our robust slate of digital programs. We invite you to join us in a conversation about how we might deepen your company's engagement with The Met's global audience and further its philanthropic commitment to the arts.
