Since 1888, the McLean County Arts Center has served our creative community with exhibitions, classes, and the Sugar Creek Arts Festival.  Ranked every year as the community’s favorite Art Gallery in the Pantagraph Reader’s poll, the Arts Center has a significant and valued impact on our community. We would like to help you connect with this audience.  We are excited to announce several sponsorship opportunities for next year’s exhibition programming at the McLean County Arts Center! Our upcoming exhibitions will feature an impressive lineup, showcasing diverse shows that will create even more opportunities for local and emerging artists to share their work with the community.

Your partnership truly makes a difference! To express our gratitude for your generous support, we offer a variety of sponsorship benefits tailored to enhance our collaboration. Exhibition sponsorships begin at as little as $500 and are acknowledged on postcards, exhibition wall signage, the website, social media, the artist interview video, and the lobby donor board. We would love to discuss how we can align our initiatives with your goals and interests.

· Creates a partnership with a cultural non-profit of McLean County.
