Exhibition Sponsorships

Getty receives support from individuals, corporations, and foundations for our dynamic array of exhibitions. We work collaboratively with corporate sponsors to create customized benefits that ensure strong brand recognition and high visibility. Foundations and individual donors who share our vision help to take our exhibitions to greater heights with their generous financial support.
 
 

Educational Partnerships

The Education Department at the J. Paul Getty Museum offers outstanding programs and resources for K-12 students and teachers, college students and faculty, families, teens, community groups, and museum educators at both the Getty Center and the Getty Villa. With generous support from the Getty Patron Program, individual donors, and institutional partners, the department enables the Museum to engage with visitors, inspiring them to look more closely and better understand the artworks they view.

Thoughtful and engaging education programs further Getty’s mission to encourage the appreciation and understanding of art, its history, and contexts by: 

  • Facilitating a variety of learning experiences centered on works of art
  • Developing interpretive strategies that promote visual comprehension of the collection
  • Enhancing educational opportunities for a wide range of audiences
  • Collaborating across Getty in order to actively contribute to creative opportunities

Getty’s special initiatives involve unique collaborations between Getty programs and with partner organizations around the globe. Drawing on Getty’s unparalleled capacity as a convener, this exchange results in one-of-a-kind exhibitions as well as groundbreaking research and conservation. Individuals, corporations, and foundations have partnered with Getty on some of our boldest initiatives, including Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA and the LA Arts Recovery Fund. Coming up in 2024, PST ART: Art & Science Collide will unite 50+ organizations and over 800 artists across Southern California for a landmark exploration of pressing issues of the current day.
