Sponsorship Opportunities

Sponsorship at Manchester Art Gallery gives companies the opportunity to:

  • Foster favourable and brand associations by working with the north west’s leading venue for the visual arts.
  • Communicate to our audiences. Manchester Art Gallery attracts over 250,000 visitors each year with 86% of visitors typically coming from ABC1 social grades.
  • Gain publicity through tailored communications campaigns aimed at reaching specific target markets.
  • Create entertainment opportunities for customers and employees.
  • Exhibition sponsors, in addition to complementary tickets to the private view, also have the opportunity to host one event at Manchester Art Gallery free of all hire charges with discounted hire rates for further events. 
  • Improve community relations, by, for example, sponsoring our education and outreach programmes. 
  • Create promotional opportunities with on-site sampling, bespoke events and PR activities.

Whatever the objectives, our sponsors work with our award winning Development Team to determine a package of benefits tailor made to meet their communication needs.

A range of opportunities exists, from major exhibition sponsorship to individual education projects.
