Art Speaks Gallery Exhibition and Special Events Sponsorships
Every year, The Bay School hosts a variety of events, exhibitions, and programs which brings our community together to enjoy fun-filled creative experiences. Proceeds from these activities, including sponsorships from our generous partners, enable us to provide and expand art-based experiences for artists, young and old, including individuals unable to come to us.
Art Speaks Gallery Exhibition Sponsorships
We invite you to support this vibrant community through sponsoring an exhibit in the Art Speaks Gallery. Your sponsorship supports the installation costs of the exhibition and the opening reception. As a Gallery Sponsor, for $300/$500 during the exhibition of your choice, you receive recognition:
- In the Art Speaks Gallery for the duration of the exhibit
- On our website and in social media postings about the exhibition
- In our weekly newsletter and on flyers advertising the exhibition
- In press releases and articles about the exhibition
- With a special acknowledgment during the exhibition reception
Although most exhibition sponsorships are $300, the annual Arts Speaks Juried Exhibition and those which run longer than one month are available for $500. The Art Speaks Juried Exhibition sponsor also will be acknowledged in the exhibition program.
Although you do not have to advertise to be a sponsor of an exhibition, those that do receive a 10% discount on all advertising purchased during 2025.
