University Museums reaches thousands of visitors, students, and community members each year through exhibitions, educational programs, and public events. Sponsorship connects your organization to Iowa State's cultural life—and to the 35,000+ students, faculty, and staff who engage with our locations and the largest campus public art collection in the nation.
Why Partner With Us
Sponsors receive recognition across our marketing channels, including gallery signage, website, press releases, printed materials, and email communications reaching thousands of engaged subscribers. But beyond visibility, partnership supports programming that keeps admission free and brings exhibitions and educational experiences to central Iowa.
Sponsorship Opportunities
We work with businesses to match support with the right opportunity:
- Exhibitions: Name and logo recognition on gallery walls, website, press releases, and printed announcements
- Educational programs: Support programming reaching students across all eight ISU colleges
- Special events: Sponsor receptions, lectures, and public programs
Recognition and benefits scale with level of support. We're happy to discuss what works for your organization.
Employee & Client Engagement
Sponsors can arrange private tours and facility rentals for company events—a distinctive way to connect your team or clients with something memorable.
In-Kind Support
Contributions of goods and services—refreshments for events, technology, storage space—reduce costs and support programming directly. Recognition opportunities are available.
